Have you ever gone to a greengrocer. That reminds me of days of yore when one went to the bakery, the butcher, and the greengrocer. The milkman would bring your milk to you. That was actually before my time of remembrance. I remember grocery stores. But when I lived in Europe that was the way it was. Except we grew our vegetables.
In the village of Dumpling there is a greengrocer, Samuel Sprout.
He wears a tie with his apron
And has all kinds of produce.
Lettuce
Cauliflower
Potatoes
Marrow (Do you know what that is?) Tomatoes
Carrots
And even flowers.
Here's a bag ready to go with a leek and a cucumber.
This is a Jean Greenhowe design but knitted by me.
This is linked to Esther's WOW and WIP Wednesday. I know he's not really a work in progress, but he's so cute, I had to let you see him.
oh my...he is adorable!

ReplyDeleteThis is so cute! A lot of work too. I'm not a knitter, I crochet, but I've made some animals sort of like this and they were so fun to make. I love all the detail of this one!
ReplyDeleteLove your knitted doll!! I used to knit the greenhowe patterns when my son was small they are great to make. but I never made the extras to go with them just the dolls! You have a lot of patience!! great job!!
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh this is so amazing, what a lot of work, but adorable. Nice work.
ReplyDeleteThe detail in your stitchwork is amazing...a lovely addition to the village. Can I see mushrooms up the back of the produce stand?
