3 Jack Russels


Here are the three Jack Russells I was recently asked to make! They are very cute but were quite fiddly to do, and they are tiny!!!
How much is that doggy in the window ?
My three Jack Russells are finally finished. They were quite time consuming as made on 2.75 mm needles.
They measure 15 cm in length and 14 cm to top of head. More photos will be posted later.

A basket of flowers

Just finished this tea cosy in time for this weekends events at BAAD at the Barras on Saturday and Afternoon Twee at the Shed on Sunday.
It is made with 3 strands of yarn for extra cosiness.

Latest New Makes

Apologies firstly for the photos, my camera is not right at the moment, really must get around to reading the instructions!!!! The photos were taken at the weekend in Troon at the craft fair there.

I got great new yarns when I was in Wiltshire the other week, the first two images show a fabby ruffle yarn that is 50 % pure new wool  and had a great soft fleecy texture.

Thee are snuggles which slip over your neck and are very very cosy indeed and extremely lightweight! 

I was kicking myself for only buying 2 balls of this yarn, so took the plunge and have ordered 20 more, bang goes the remainder of Saturday's profits!  So hopefully it will arrive soon as both snuggles went in the first hour!!!!

 The next  set of photos are the softest , cutest booties ever!! Made in Rowan 4ply cotton and Paton's 4 ply cotton they are so cute!! They are a wrap around style with moss stitch sole and adjustable button fastening . They fit up to 12-18mth size and are machine washable!!

These ones were a special order , but all colours and sizes are available!!!
Large size in Rowan 4ply cotton

Sirdar Bamboo yarn / Patons 4ply cotton large size
