Now for the fun! I just couldn't keep these new designs a secret any longer - they were just so cute I had to share them once I had a few photos. If you haven't seen them via Facebook, here they are.
Peanut, a chipmunk with a cable pullover. He's sweet on his own, but in the pullover he looks like the star of a 70's knitting pattern book. His stripes are done with duplicate stitch, so you can follow what I've done or improvise your own stripe pattern based on the chipmunks in your neighbourhood.
Kelby, a smooshy faced pug in a seamless hooded anorak. He's about the same size as the big teddy and bunny, so super cuddly for a little kid. His face is more complicated than most of my patterns, but it was necessary to get him to look just right. Don't forget to check out his tail.
Mr. Mitten will get working on the individual patterns as soon as he has time (work is a bit crazy right now), so you can look forward to them soon! These two patterns will be replacing the Squirrel and Big Teddy in the new edition of Fuzzy Knits, so you can also look forward to them there.
Love love love these two - totally gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteLook forward to the patterns!!
OOOOhhhhhh! Beautiful! Hopefully they will also be available and sold as individual patterns too. I have every other one you have ever made.

I love them. Great job with them. They are to cute for words. I am looking forward to adding these to my collection.
ReplyDeleteI love the new patterns! I can't wait to purchase them!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE your work. I am going to learn how to knit one day so I can create some of these darling toys!
ReplyDeleteI just bought Festive Knits and made Batty for my grandaughter's birthday. I love the details on the pattern and it just came out beautifully. The grandkids have all gone through the patterns and I have orders for their favorites. I'm looking forward to making both of these new ones, too.
ReplyDeleteBeyond precious! Looking forward to the patterns, I tell ya, my heart skipped a beat!
ReplyDeleteToo cute for words!!! I swear your patterns are taking over my limited knitting time, they are so fun to make and they are quick to knit up.
ReplyDeleteWonderful-I am so looking forward to knitting these two lovely little chaps.

These are fantastic! I *must* have the chipmunk! :)
ReplyDeleteYou've been busy! The new patterns are so sweet. If I make the chipmunk I'll also have to knit up some acorns for him to hide. Good work, Ms. Mitten!
ReplyDeleteMarvellous .... love the chipmunk. Please do these patterns individually as I have all your other one's.
ReplyDeleteHow about a piggy?
Fabulous! I love them both!!
ReplyDeleteI can't decide which is cuter! You are so talented!
