Tiny Clothes

I was sick all Memorial Day weekend. Had one extra day today. I slept a lot, read a lot, and made a few things--including tiny clothes for new tiny friends to be added to the fivetrees shop soon.



Pink and orange. . . more things ought to be pink and orange. It's such a lovely combination.


I love this tiny cardigan.


Two boy pants, one girl pant and one pair of pants suitable for a carnie. Which is which? Hmmmmm. . .

Future Woolly Blanket

I use wool yarn to make everything I sell on Etsy. The toys are wool. The cowls are wool. The mitts are wool. Wool is durable. It cleans well. If it gets wet, it still keeps you warm. I think it's magic.

But all of that wool yarn going through my hands every year. I have lots of left over bits I don't know what to do with and they end up in an ever growing pile.

Problem solved. Now, between projects, I'm slowly knitting those bits of yarn into mitered squares for a future snuggly wool blanket.

I think the final blanket will be lovely (once I have enough squares and I figure out how to piece them all together.)
