WINNER

I do have a winner! Shelley chose correctly with her bear parts. The parts do make a nice little bear for a small child. Thanks to all those who entered. It was really fun to read what everyone guessed. Quite the variety of things.I'm practicing hats right now. I found that when I knit in the round I knit much smaller, so for the hats I must go up a needle size. For other items I go down 2 needle sizes. That's quite a bit of difference. So the pink hat is for a newborn. It was supposed to be for a 1 year old. The striped is correct because I learned by then.
I also made this blanket to add to the shop. It's Beatrix Potter fabric and a thick, soft chenille like fabric on the back. Very thick and very soft. I really like it.

  1. Well I did wonder if it was a child's toy. Glad someone figured our all those little pieces :-)

  2. I never would have guessed. I'd like to make those blankets. Are they just two pieces of fabric sewn together along the edges?
