No, it’s not the result of a bomb going off in a toy shop. This tangle of heads and limbs is my work in progress basket. I have been really busy knitting over the last few weeks and haven’t felt much like sewing up – hence the fact I have hardly any finished toys and this rather large pile of softie carnage! I think it’s time to get out the stuffing and start finishing off a few.
There are 10 little ones earmarked for Mahar Drygoods and I am hoping to have some more ready for my little shop in around 2 weeks.
If you’re on my advance mailing list I’ll be emailing more details when they’re ready. If you’d like to be added please drop me a line.

Not carnage but an absolute basket of delights. I love the dark monkey and those legs with the green Mary Janes and pink and white tights. Gorgeous colours.

Are you ever tempted to just close your eyes and pick a head and a body and then join them together regardless of whether they go or not?

I love the stripey legs with the little Mary Jane’s and the pink rabbit slippers – you are so talented!! I ordered some needles from Loop – they should arrive on Thursday! I am excited to see what colour they are – thanks for the heads up!

Do I see a giant bunny head in there? I think she needs a home in Oklahoma – once her body parts are attached, of course!
I can’t wait to try my luck in purchasing one of your lovely creatures.
