My children's preschool were having a dress up in yellow day with the children making donations for daffodil day to raise money for the New Zealand Cancer Society. Yellow would be the only colour clothes etc we didn't have. I decided i'd knit yellow beanies for daffodil day.
I love how practical facecloths are while still being pretty, these would make a lovely baby gift. Knitting patterns include the pretty dipped facecloth and the pretty baby facecloth. The pretty baby facecloth knitting pattern is quite easy and knits up quickly while the dipped facecloth knitting pattern is a little bit harder.
A cute cuddly knitted cat soft toy, called squiggles. I made from a kit I had from a few years ago. I thought the knitted cat would look great in my knitting room. But my children fell in love with him- they put him on the mantle piece and have been playing with the knitted cat.
Montessori materials can be quite expensive so I thought i'd make these DIY montessori colour blocks. This knitting pattern is for the first colour box which includes the primary colours. It is simple and easy to make suitable for a beginner.
A child's knitted crocodile set with a soft toy, knitted crocodile slippers and a custom crocodile beanie to match of course! My child loves crocodiles and watching them on discovery and animal planet.
