More Knitted Toys

More knitted toys, My daughter has a Birthday Party to go to this weekend and I am never to sure of what gift to give. Now a days people just give gift cards, but I like to give something handmade and unique. I am working on another toy for the party, but if I don't have time to finish it I will give this one.




I have been thinking about starting my own podcast, but yes but, I don't think I will only because I can not be consistent on updating my blog weekly. Besides I wouldn't know what to talk about. What would you talk about on a podcast anyway. There are alot of knitting podcast out there already.

I have done more knitting but just haven't gotten around to taking pictures. I have made two felted bags just because the first one I didn't like. I would have made another one if the second one didn't turn out. I will try to getting around to taking photos and posting for you to see.

My son turned 10 yesterday and I didn't make him anything but I did get him a mp3 cd player something that he wanted, only because he likes to use mine. He is the little guy in the picture of the soctopus toy above. Thats all for now so take care and God Bless.

New Year

Well the new year has arrived and I have been busy with my puppies. I still have one puppy left looking for a new home. He is 3 months old now. The puppies were ready yo go at 6 weeks but because it was Dec. 23 too close to Christmas I didn't advertise, only because I don't want them to go to someone buying for a gift and the person getting the gift doesn't want it. It is a really big job taking care of a puppy. Sure they are cute but they need work too.

Update the puppies are all gone to new homes. I was a little ticked off with the one lady that told me her sad story, so I reduced my asking price to make her and her (everyone laughs at her) daughter be able to get a puppy. Some how it wasn't supposed to be she didn't come to get the dog and I did get my asking price from another lady.

Enough of the puppies I have been busy with birthday gifts for my childrens friends. My son has yet another B.D. party to go to for this weekend and I need to get a couple pair of socks done. My daugther has a B.D. party for March 1st and I would like to make Sheldon for her. I have already done one and now working on a second one.

Chritmas Knitting

Some plain old slippers because the winter is cold and we can always have something warm on our feet.


Here are some hiking socks everyone can use them so I made up a few to give as gifts.


Here is a pair of fancy cable socks. it took me a few months to make this pair only because I was busy working on the other christmas gifts that really needed to be done.



Here is a update on the puppies these photos are of the girls one is sleeping. They are ready to go. I called the man who said that he wanted another one, well as usual they change they mind. So I have no buyers yet .

Photos of what I have been up too.

Here is a photo of the last litter of puppies, this is at 3 weeks old. They are now 5 weeks just about ready to go. I have one or maybe two gone I need to make a couple of calls first.

This is a pig I made from the "Pattern A Day Calender 2008". I want to get the 2009 calender as well, but I will have to wait and see.

Here is a hat the Thorpe Pattern, I put in a lining to make it warmer.

These are a pair of Monkey sock (a Cookie a pattern). These three are gifts for my daugther's friend from school. I still have more gifts made up I just need to take pictures and post them, but tomorrows another day. Have yourself a great day and God Bless All my readers.

Well I am back

Sorry to all you readers who might have missed me. I have been busy, all the puppies have found homes, for all you that are wondering about them. Now I did get another litter, this one was three, one boy and two girl they were born Nov. 11th , Remembance Day for us here in Canada. I will post pictures for you to see, as soon as I take some.

I also have been busy with the christmas knitting and yet to post in the Holiday Kal Cal all my pictures (I still need to take those as well).

Not much more happening besides all the snow we have been getting and it's still snowing now. I am hopping to get back into posting regular, That only if anyone out there has missed me. Please leave a commet and let me know. God Bless and talk to you soon. Have yourself a wonderful day.

No Photos to show

Just dropping in to let you all know that I haven't been knitting much. I did get the back and the front done in the Bamboo sweater that I am working on and a pair of plain socks for my hubby and son. I also did a hat for my daugther, but she is so fussy that I don't think that she will wear it. It has been made for a week now and it's cold out and she is still wearing her store bought hat. Her friend wants a hat and socks for christmas, so if I make the same just a different colour then she might wear it (I am Hopping). Kids are so fussy, but I guess I was that way too when I was younger.

All the seven puppies have found a new home. Now I am just waiting for the next litter, Missy is due on the 14th of Nov. Just a couple of weeks away and we will have new puppies, I love watching them grow.

Nothing Happening

Not much happening just doning the regular daily things. My puppies are just about ready to go they will be 6 weeks on the 20th. I have sure learned alot since having my first litter. I use to soften their food everyday and twice a day when they get bigger, but this time I did just a bit at 3 weeks and now I don't at all and they have their teeth coming in and eating the hard food. Makes it much easier for the people who buy them. Well here is a picture of them just a few days before they are ready to go.

Here is a picture of a doll that I wanted to make a dress for. So I made up a little knit in the round dress and not too bad of a fit. I just used some left over sock yarn.


Here is a little bear that I made up last night only took a couple of hours, now I need to put a face on him.

I am still working on the bamboo sweater. I did get the back finished and I cast on the front, it's half way done shouldn't be too long now. Then I can post pictures for you to see.
Have you self a great weekend and I hope to post sooner and not take so long in letting you know what I have been knitting. God Bless
