Felted Teddy Bear


My teddy bear is finally getting close to being finished! I got this pattern from my local yarn store, Fiber Gallery and it's made using <1 skein of Ecological Wool. I'm still working on stuffing it and then need to do some embroidering on his face. My 2 1/2 year old neighbor came over and saw it yesterday. His eyes lit up, "Teddy!" and gave it a huge hug. :) Someday my kids will love this guy!

My new niece!
















Here are some pictures of a hat and baby kimono I made for my new niece, Margreta Jane. It's made from some wonderfully soft organic cotton. The kimono is from a pattern in Mason Dixon Knitting, and the hat is a variation from Itty, Bitty Hats. The hat's a bit too big still, but she's got plenty of time to grow into it before this fall & winter! I'll try to get some pictures of her in it soon!
