Knitting Journal: Superhero Soft Toys

  

I thought I would share the superhero soft toys  I have been knitting for presents.  I thought they would make the perfect present so decided to knit their favourite superhero's - Spiderman and Batman for them to play and have adventures with. 

Cuddly knitted whale and octopus soft toys

Cute cuddly knitted under the sea soft toys made from a knitting kit I had from a few years ago and thought i'd knit one for my children. The knitted soft toy whale and an octopus were fun to make in a weekend and they are perfect for an afternoon of play or snuggling in bed.

Knitted elf Christmas decorations

Yes I've started knitting Christmas decorations already!  I made these using a kit I got a few years ago with a knitting magazine. My children love their elves and loved these knitted elf Christmas decorations.

Knitted spring birds and dragonflies bunting

Yay it's nearly spring and time to decorate for spring. Do you love to decorate for the seasons?  I knitted this beautiful knitted spring birds and dragonflies bunting to decorate my dining room for spring and brighten up the room.

Knitted beanies for daffodil day

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.  

Cupcakes good enough to eat

I love to bake but it never lasts long in my home, here is a few cupcakes that look good enough to eat.  I knitted cupcakes for a knitting display I had at my local library.  Since then the knitted cupcakes have become a knitted table piece, my friends and family love the knitted cupcakes. I've lost count of how times I have laughed at friends and family who thought they were real until they picked them up to eat. 

Knitted Snood

I have been working on a knitted snood for my sister to keep her neck and ears warm with the cool winter weather. I've been working on this knitted snood for a few weeks and I'm so excited to share it with you now that it is finished.  

Knitted baby gift set

Do you love to knit baby gift sets?  I love making handmade gifts because they come from your heart.  They make the perfect gift too and you can find quite a lot of easy to knit patterns these ones knit up quite quickly.

Quick and easy knitted peg bag

I switched to a zero waste lifestyle last year, where we are trying to eliminate as much waste as possible. When our plastic peg bag started cracking and splitting  I needed to find one to replace it.  I didn’t want to get another plastic peg bag as it didn’t last that long and I couldn’t find one that wasn't plastic. After flicking through knitting patterns I found one I loved and was big enough to fit all of the pegs in.
