Knitted Royal Family


As if the royal wedding wasn't exciting enough already, some clever soul has created a knitted version. I like.

Pink unicorn


I made this pink unicorn fridge magnet in homage to Charlie the Unicorn. Apparently it's been bought by Disney so I hope they get angry and sue me.

Felt friends

Not sure if these should qualify as a 'woolly idea'. They are felt. I guess that's kind of woolly.

I made them to give away as presents but now husband has bonded with them. We are drowning in cute little critters!

Tony Harrison


Even when you use a pattern you can never tell exactly what the creation will look like. Actually another cephalopod for my collection, this striking pink little chap came out the spits of Tony Harrison from The Mighty Boosh.

Padawan crotcheter

Teaching my mum, a proficient and seasoned knitter and inspiration behind all my creations, to crochet this afternoon. Here is her first work. It's nice to be able to give something back. And be better than her for once.

Cup cake pin friend




I made this handsome little chap for my friend jess's birthday. She's got a beautiful vintage sewing machine that he can watch over and keep her pins neat and tidy in his minty icing head.

The embodiment of evil

Another chap from creepy cute. The patterns are really quick but have clever little touches like a self closing 'magic circle' for casting on in rounds.

This guy is cthulhu, a half octopus, half dragon sea beast, intent on world destruction.

I gave him extra long mouth tentacles.

He also reminds me of a fleshy be-tentacled beast from the dr who exhibition, the Ood, although the knitted version is much cuter. Also, the BBC complained about the last poor knitter who made a homage to these chaps so best not to dwell on that...
