🍃 A July Update ...

  ... This week ...

... I'm busy working on the layout for the new pattern ...

For those who are interested in making the medium size 
'Candy Bear' on 2 single pointed needles working
'back & forth' she will be available very soon

💗

Following the publication of the seamless version
the pattern has now been rewritten and rephotographed and although
I prefer to work 'in the round' wherever possible these days
I still enjoy the process of putting something together
in 2 very different ways ... 💫


💗


... In the mean time ..
here's 'Ela' on my worktable
taken on a very rainy afternoon in the workroom.
I love that those legs are so very flexible
which means she can be posed easily in so many places
(she's currently enjoying the view from my bookshelf!)
and would really like to design more in this way ...

... Hope you've had a good start to the new week ...
 


... Back soon ... 

(with an update when the new pattern is published)





💗


P.S The new medium Candy Bear 'in the round' knitting pattern 
is already available and can be found on ...

  4. Your Ela is adorable! I made a felt bunny that lives in our den on a table where I can see her each day. Now I have to find a heart plant! ((hugs)), Teresa :-)

  5. Thank you for doing the patterns both ways. I used to love knitting in the round but with tendonitis in my hands and wrists knitting flat is much easier and more comfortable. I wish more designers would give us both options.
