white teddy

good morning crafters and welcome to my share for today.

i have to admit i am enjoying my recent fest of knitting, and i throughly enjoying knitting up these soft toys and clothes by Susan Hickson:  maryjane's tearoom

today's teddy is completed wearing a cute lemon dress and shoes

my teddy:

these patterns i have found to be so easy to follow and will probably be knitting a few more over the next few months.

teddy sitting with her querky smile.

here's what i have used to complete her:

needles: 21/4 mm

4ply wool in white and lemon (acrylic) from my stash

she is small than the original teddy as i have used smaller needles and finer wool. 

she stands 9 1/2 inches tall and has been dressed in one of the of the tearoom dresses i have made.

i am so pleased at how this little cutie has turned out.

join me again soon for my next project.

thanks for stopping by, a warm welcome to my new follower, enjoy your day and craft happy. Ann

A little spot of knitting.

Meet Oscar this weeks knitting poject.

 I have to admit I have fads/fazes of jumping from one craft to another and although I have a few projects in the wings I couldn't resist making this fella.

I have made him minus the clothes as I decided to use a multi coloured dk yarn and I couldn't resist making a little dickie bow to finish him off.
