A Box of Puppies

I was once told by a sweet friend that hanging out with my family was like falling into a box of puppies.

Now, I don’t know if that is true, but this week I’ve certainly had an inkling of what that might just feel like. Haha.

Another friend, who had just lost their sweet dog of a dozen years, asked if I would make a tiny replica of their pup for her kids, for Christmas.

I wondered if making four of the same thing would make me nuts–but it didn’t. I was surprised to find that same pattern, same yarn, same everything–and yet–they all had their own look to them–which made it quite the adventure!

I’m pleased to be a small part of easing a child’s aching heart.

Rest easy Duke.

Good boy.

Tiny Turkeys

Don’t you just LOVE my tiny turkeys?!! EEEEeeeee! I adore them!

My favorite part is their incredibly colorful tail.

This pattern is actually a chicken, but with just a few tweaks–POOF!– it has now become a turkey!

Be really, really nice to me and you might just get one of these cuties for Thanksgiving.

Heh, heh.

More Copy Cats

Ok, this is getting a little more challenging…

but still…

so DANG fun!! I love sorting out all the patterns and personalities of the kitties with each one being so awesome and specific.

I’m starting to look at cats a lot more closely now.

They are all so unique and lovely, but my crochet brain is turning them all into YARN!!!

Occupational hazard, I suppose.

Apparently, I have one volunteer already!!

Ohhh Dali….

Copy Cats Custom Kitties

A friend of a friend saw a few of the kitties that I made for the Farmer’s Market and asked if I could make one that looked like…

their very own kitty.

You know me…

I said, “Ummmm…yeah.”

And so…

down to the spots on the legs…

I did my best.

They were happy.

I was happy.

Not sure what the kitty thinks.

Oh, well.

Heh, heh.

Cosmo

So great, in fact, that I was totally inspired to make this cute little fellow right here.

In case you aren’t from around these parts…
