Title: I knitted Sky and here she is ...
Post by: souffle on December 08, 2013, 22:14:33 PM

Sootyca won the suction for the little knitted cat ornament I said I would make so here she is all ready for posting  ;)
I hope her new mum likes her and Sky was a lovely model and I enjoyed seeing her pics so much I have posted some below.

Oh what a lovely gift, and a beautiful cat. Well done Souffle  ;D How long does it take to knit a cat bauble?

(Best not to mention cat baubles to SueP though - Moray's in for his snip today  :scared: )

The actual knitting doesn't take so long but it depends on the pattern as sometimes there is a lot of wool changing! However the sewing up takes longer as it is rather fiddly with the small parts. Maybe a couple of hours in total each.

A plain black is my idea of heaven  ;)
