Everything seems to be taking much longer than usual at the moment and since Toby went back to school it has felt like I've been really busy but not actually getting anything done. I have however managed to finish off the free Lions supplement pattern and have just uploaded it to the Facebook group and Ravelry:
This pattern is a free one and therefore only gives basic instructions on converting the existing 9 inch bear patterns - you'll need either of the Boy Bear or Girl bear patterns in order to knit a complete Lion or Lioness.
If I had to guess, I expect that the boy Lion is going to be the more popular make of the two and I have had fun making a few myself during the process of working out the pattern. There should be a health warning attached though - that mane really tests the patience and is not something to tackle if you're in a hurry ;)
As always, I hope that this pattern helps spread a little pleasure and enjoyment out there, things that seem harder than ever to find and hang on to right now. Hope you're finding a little of each in your days. I'm finding mine out in the peace and tranquility of the quiet woods and have a few pictures to share in the next post.
'Til next time xxx
