Being a knitter myself I don't often buy things that have been knitted by someone else but then it's not every day that you come across such gorgeousness as these
Beautifully knitted by Knithappens in the most fabulous yarn from Skein Queen, they are wonderful and my hands are very happy (a nice reward for all of the hard work they've been doing recently!).
PS. apologies to everyone who has emailed me in the last few weeks and not had a reply - I've got a big email backlog and hope to reply to you next week. Thanks for your patience.
Have a lovely weekend everyone.
Those hands deserve a treat! I'm enjoying knitting 25 little socks with your pattern. So cute (and easy to follow!)
Hugs ;0)

lovely photo, thank you -- it is not every day that as a knitter you make something that a talented knitter buys ; )

Me and knithappens go to the same knitting group - she's very talented. We met through Etsy. Lovely to see her Pewter Spots went to a great home.

That's so pretty! Etsy is very good at tempting people. I used to hardly buy art, because I can draw and paint what I want, but I just spent £££ on lovely prints on etsy ^_^

Very pretty, I love the colours. I'm afraid they would just be "dress gloves" (ie just for looking, not for real!!!)here in Canada with our weather!

Love those cute mitts. I knitted some similar for myself and they are toasty warm. Managed to knit ONE cupcake, looking forward to the plate being full!!

Pretty and well deserved for those hard-working hands. Please don't sweat the replies - it's the holidays and you address a lot of our notes/concerns on your journal entries. :)

Oh my, can I tell you about my esty addiction?
It's bad. Really, really bad.

Oof, I can totally see why you succumbed - beautiful! I really like fingerless numbers too - v useful (and you can still craft if it's parky). At first I thought 'what a beautiful leaf detail on those gloves'. What a 'nana - that's 14 hours looking after liitle ones for you! I now have my eyes and brain in again.

They are SO gorgeous!! Lucky you!

Oh I love those. How feminine and dainty they look. I'm so jealous! :P
I am going to use one of your pictures of the knitted animals. I had emailed you if it would be all right so I'm going to risk your wrath...lol....by putting it on today. I hope this will generate some business for you. I have a couple of rabbits that I want so badly. Come by later and see if you approve of the post and if you want me to add or change anything.
Hugs,
Deanna
