Looking back at 2017

On checking my Ravelry patterns – http://www.ravelry.com/designers/sylvia-leake –  I realised I’d managed to design, knit, test knit, photograph, write up and publish 15 new knitting patterns last year!  Starting with ‘A Badger Blanket’ at the beginning of the year, which was actually designed and made at the end of 2016.  So here’s the round up:

Snowman Baby Booties!

The Knitter has focussed her attention on all things Christmassy. As a result of this a pair of woolly snowman booties have appeared. I am certain that they will make good company this Christmas, however, I am upset that The Knitter could not provide me with a cat-sized version, my paws are getting a bit nippy…

You can purchase your copy of the pattern on any of The Knitters websites…Happy Knitting!

Kitty and Doggy Booties

The Kitty and Doggy booties are friends! Now thats something you don’t see everyday.

An unlikely friendship

Basil’s Hiding Place

I want some peace!

The clicking sound of knitting needles awoke me from my slumber. I curiously poked my head out of my lastest sleeping place and discovered that “the knitter in the house” was STILL working on the kitten booties. When will they be finished? I want a friend to keep me company!

Dog booties? How dare she!

That knitter is designing yet another creation. However, whilst enjoying my nice afternoon cat nap I was rudely awoken by the sight of dog booties! To let her know what I thought of this I showed my boredom. I’m hoping for a nice pair of cat booties to join them, who would want DOGS?!

*yawn* I've had enough of this, dogs?! Its disgraceful.

Snugly Sheep

Snugly Sheep!

After being inspired by local countryside walks and sheep I have come up with these adorable sheep hat and booties for babies!
