Thanks to blogging friends...

I just wanted to quickly post a couple of photos to thank two blogging friends for their patterns.


Karen posted a pattern for a cute little bear and I promised I would show and tell if I made one so here she is...



The pattern was easy to use and made up beautifully.  With a bit of stuffing and finishing off here she is...









She came to the craft fair with us on Saturday, sat proudly on the middle of the table and was chosen by little Lexi to take home with her.  :-)



The other pattern I was given from a blogging friend was of a hat for Lexi that Penny sent me.  I knit it up in some gorgeous pink chunky wool [it's actually better than it looks in the photos] and am really pleased with the finished hat but have yet to get Lexi to model it for me [that is presuming it actually fits her  :-)  ].  The pattern had little buttons down the overlapped seam but I rather liked these little crocheted flowers.

Thanks so much girls for sharing your patterns.  I've had a lot of fun making them.
Hugs,
Annie x

Gorgeous makes Annie. Sorry to hear that the crafty fayre was quiet - I helped out at one a week ago and the tale was similar, despite decent weather. Keep going though and don't feel it isn't worth trying. The things you and Jo make could have just been too good for them :)

Hugs, Di xx

Such sweet pattern results, no wonder Lexi chose the teddy.Sorry about the craft fair...competition is hard enough but the atrocious weather must have played a large part in it too. Trouble is, you. Have to do'em all to know whether they'll be any good to you!
