Time is ticking on. The shops are heaving with baubles and tinsel. Little children everywhere are already on page 3 of their christmas lists. Turkeys and crates of wine are being ordered. And I am running out of time to finish this lot!
It doesn't matter how far in advance I start, it always feels like a rush to get the christmas batch of animals ready. They're almost there, now I must fly and get those needles clicking again. Happy weekend all!

Are you going to sell them in your shop? I couldn't buy any last time and I'm looking forward to another opportunity!

Wow, they all look so amazing!! I hear you on the Christmas crafting - I appear to have gone into mad production line overdrive!! Help! :)

Christmas?! Already?! Oh my oh my you're organised! It hasn't quite sunk in here yet! Arrggh! I really do need an eggnog! t.x

I know exactly how you feel. I have so much to do and not nearly enough hours in the day. Add to that a cold that is seriously dragging me down.... But your latest lovely animals look so cute. Maybe this time I will be lucky enough to snatch one up before they sell out!
Posted by: Fiona | November 14, 2008 at 11:29 AM
They all look divine! Fingers crossed I can buy one at the next mad rush sale!
Posted by: Dawn | November 14, 2008 at 12:14 PM
Eek! You've jogged my memory - must order turkey...

I love Christmas - and that picture made me squeal with joy! Cuteness a plenty! It is never too early!! I have too many projects to complete before Christmas too - where does the time go?!?

My needles are clicking madly too , I recieved my wool today from the site you recommended so hopefully will be able to start with that in the next few days. Good luck with your clicking too. From what I can see so far they are all adorable - as always

and a Christmas Badger has just been added to my list for Santa!

The snowflake sweater on the center Bear is just beautiful!
I'll have my eye on him in the next shop sale.
Please stop for a cup of tea here and there and don't worry, we can all wait a extra week if needed.

Imagine, some of us are rushing through life no matter Christmas or not :) Not me though :) Those toys are great and are very much worth the run. ;)
Posted by: mia | November 14, 2008 at 05:46 PM
Wow! How festive they all look. I just hope Santa visits your site....
I visited a Christmas Market this afternoon and had a taster of (wait for it) Toffee Vodka - just the thing for sipping whilst knitting.
Good luck,
Jx

Happy clicking! The festive softies are looking great! I love the little grey rabbit with the stripy long johns/pyjama bottoms and little rabbit slippers :)
Posted by: Gemma | November 14, 2008 at 07:28 PM
Oh those little rabbit slippers on that bunny are soooo cute!
You'll have no trouble selling this lot, they're GORGEOUS!!
You are so talented!
Merry Christmas (is it too early to say that??!! :)

They are lovely beings. I love their individuality and appreciate the creativity into making unique outfits that match their size, shape and color. Great job and thank you for inspiring us.

Wow, you've been busy. Don't let all those comments interrupt your knitting. Looks like you got quite a couple more to finish up.

I just love your little knitted treasures.
I plan to drop by your etsy shop everyday to make sure I get one for myself for xmas. The kids just wouldn't appreciate it like I would LOL.
Keep those needles clicking.

Why do the weeks up until Christmas fly by so quickly! I never seem to get everything done that I want to.
Love Alison x
Posted by: Alison | November 15, 2008 at 03:08 PM
I don't know how you do it. They are exquisite as always!!
Posted by: SusanJ | November 15, 2008 at 03:36 PM
Oh, Julie!
I LOVE them! Are they going in your ETSY shop? I'm much too far away to stand in line waiting for the "doors" to open at your shop but, oh, how I wish! In one of my posts I talked about wishing I could knit...and this is exactly what I was talking about! Love your blog...
Blessings,
Dianne

Oooooh ...... I hope one of those is a cute little Christmas Mouse!
Posted by: Theresa Kelly | November 17, 2008 at 05:30 AM
Even dismembered, they are adorable. I have to fight the urge to want to squish one with a virtual hug. Love the outfits. I'm in line behind the other frenzied bunny-lovers!
Posted by: Michelle W. | November 17, 2008 at 08:26 PM
The one with the striped stockings is too cute!
Posted by: Michelle W. | November 17, 2008 at 08:27 PM
Wow your work is just beautiful...and so many animals! I don't know how you get so much done. You must knit in your sleep.
