I finished another chicken cross stitch at the beginning of the week and now have 2 waiting to go to be framed (fun to do but expensive in the long run ).

 

Having had something to do for weeks, yesterday my fingers started to twitch . Then I remembered that some time ago I started a knitting project but had put it on hold for some reason

 

After about half an hour's rummaging in the top of the wardrope I found all the bits I'd stuffed into a bag and was ready to take stock and see what I still needed to do

 

After 4 hours I'd completed the pattern and assembled all the parts.

 

And here he is ........

 

 

 

If anyone else wants to have a go, there is a free pattern on the following link

he's lovely! There's a little boy at our Nursery that would bust something for him he's monkey mad!

[eeyoreshunny]

he's great, something else to add to my ever growing "I must make this" list lol

I was beginning to worry when I started to assemble him

 

The face mask is a little tricky. At one stage he looked a bit like one of those ninja turtles

Ahhh. He is so cute. My knitting skills are non too good. I can only knit things that are long and straght

I love him! We have a collection of monkeys, (of varying sizes) similar to that one, but we made ours from the book, 'Knit a Square, Make a Toy'.

 

This book:

 

We bought our copy from WHSmith and have made several things from it!

looking book ubereglu

 

I often have odd bits of wool that would knit up into a square but not much else

 

I'll have a look out and see if it's in our local WHS when I next go into Nottingham.

 

Kind regards,

Thanks Plum

 

It took a couple of goes to get him to look as he should

 

My first attempt had the dimentions all wrong and it looked as if he'd been on the 'Atkins' diet

 

Kind regards,
