A Couple of Knitted Friends

I try to knit the girls something for Christmas every year. Hats, socks, mittens and dolls clothes have all made their way under the tree.  I think it may have been Humpty Dumpty who motivated me to knit outside of the box and make each of them a special friend this year.

I love to peruse the many beautiful projects over at Purl Soho and fell in love with these two patterns as soon as I saw them.

I knit the Big Snowy Owl  for Hannah and for Norah the Bobble Sheep Pillow.

Both were a lot of fun to knit and I am now a master at bobble making. There must be over 200 bobbles on Mr. Sheep!

Just like their owners, I think they make quite the couple and may be the best of friends.

    They are an adorable pair, who surely will be treasured for years to come. I am so impressed by your creative knitting!! I have mastered the scarf:). Thanks for your post!

    I’ve been dying to knit both of these! I absolutely love knitting toys because I feel like you learn a ton about construction! They’re so cute, too <3
