Wabbit

First off - I've just come back from meeting my cousin's new born twins Roy and Alan! SQUEEEEE! They're so cute! Roy is bigger than Alan and has black hair, and Alan is the small one with brown hair. Simon and Caroline loved the jellyfish ami's and said they are going to go on their pram :) Aaaaand I found out that Caroline collects bears - so guess what she'll be getting for Christmas from me lol!

I went crochet mad the other day and designed and crocheted a whole rabbit ami haha! Here he is...

He's made with a 3.25mm hook and acrylic DK yarn. His head alone took me the whole of The Matrix to make - it's 60 stitches round lol! I'm happy with the way he turned out - but can't help thinking he looks abit like a dog instead of a rabbit. What do you think?!

Babies, Babies, Babies

I'd like to congratulate my cousin Simon and his wife Caroline on the birth of their twin boys on Friday! They named them Roy (after my grandad) and Alan (after Caroline's Dad).

It's been a long time since I've crocheted anything for a baby, now there's 2 to make stuff for! I was gonna make them some hats and jackets, but it's still summer so I thought I'd make them these instead...


You can't beat a Jellyfish toy! I double and triple stitched them so they are more or less child proof. And I also sewed some bells into their heads so they rattle! I haven't been to see them yet, but will be this week when they've got settled in at home, I hope they like them!

I'd also like to congratulate Crystal, who has also had a baby boy! Congrats Crystal - he's so cute! You've got to make him loads of toys now! :p
