Dirk Dragon
Working our way through the Lalylala‘s! This cutie is called Dirk the Dragon, and he was quite a headache to make, but he is super sweet. Love how the yarn choices worked out for him!

Bunny
This is an itty bitty bunny we made for one of Violet’s friends. Acrylic/wool blend fingering yarn, using the Spring Bunnies pattern by All About Ami. Fingers for scale!

Rufus the Lamb
Made recently for a friend’s birthday, from one of the Lalylala 4 Seasons pattern collections (Easter – Lamb Rufus). Loonie for scale!

Chinese Junk Ship

Experiments
Here are a couple of more unique examples of ships in bottles we’ve made, one depicting an action scene, and the other using a more unusual container. The race scene (complete with teeny buoy!) is housed in a vintage bottle, and we’ve experimented with some colour in the sails for …
