Gnome land

Does this look like part of gnome land to you?
Where little gnomies, fairies and sprites might frolic and play…

These are my latest creations… made for some gorgeous twins who just turned 2!
I was very flattered when their lovely mum, Jode from Mummy Musings and Mayhem, asked me to make something for them *smile*

Gnomies that look alike, but different {just like the sweet girls themselves}

And since I can never just make a couple…
A whimsical door that will be winging it’s way to my Nana soon *smile*

Happy crafting, Kelly

A Spiral Jacket and our Winter garden

 Finishing a project can be wonderful can’t it!
{well if it has turned out as hoped…}
And I have to admit that I am rather thrilled with Little Miss Q’s spiral jacket!!  
{just don’t look too closely and maybe you can ignore some mistakes!}
I had planned to find a large button, maybe like for a duffel coat, to fasten the jacket…

Then I remembered a pretty butterfly brooch and gave it a go *smile*
And ohhh when I did, I just felt it completed the jacket
{and luckily it has a safety device at the back and is sturdy}
The jacket is so warm and snuggly… perfect for our Winter days…
Days spent exploring our Winter garden *smile*

 

The pattern is called ‘Spiral Jacket’ and is from Lincraft.
I haven’t had any luck finding it online…
And I’m waiting for an email from Lincraft so I can share more details with you {hopefully}

~ Update from Lincraft ~ 
 The baby spiral jacket pattern has sold out online…
however they have just released an adult version

Sharing at Small Things and Frontier Dreams

 Happy knitting, Kelly
