Peppermint Elf

I love this custom Mochimochi Elf made by cspooks!

He looks good enough to lick.

If you’ve made a Mochimochi Elf or any other toy from one of my patterns, please share it with everyone in the Mochimochi Friends Flickr group!

Boos are Better in Twos

Autumnal Boos

By special request from my parents for a friend of theirs who is a Halloween fanatic, I made some Boos in autumn colors last week. I love them!

In addition to Yahtzee, these Boos are fans of Star Trek: The Next Generation.

The Boo projects up on Ravelry now number 57 and counting! There are so many fantastic pics there that I might have to post many of them before Halloween.

giolou’s Pundits

Tester giolou (of the Sails vs. Slugs baseball series) did a swell job trying out the Pundit Babies pattern for me before I released it last week. I was happy to see pics of her adorable results!

She used Lamb’s Pride worsted yarn for her stout little mascots.

The reading material she posed them on might give away giolou’s personal leanings, but she claims to love both of these guys equally!

Thank you to giolou, and also Oiyi, Jessica, and Hannah for testing!
