I enjoy novelty knitting and here's a couple I've done for my grandson.

Oh they are great. My son would have gone crazy for the Thomas one a few years ago - now Lightsabers and Harry Potter are all that matters lol.

I'm trying to knit things as I have found I enjoy using a spinning wheel but I have a tendon problem that makes holding the needles hurt.

Love the fuzzy lion too - you are good at it

I love knitting. I learned by making myself a bedjacket when I was just 7 years old (be 60 this year so thats a looooong time ago)
When my first marriage broke up I earned extra money by knitting designer knits (one ofs) and selling them to a boutique in the city. i got about $100 per garment and they sold for 250-300. That was when picture knits and designer knits were fashionable.
Its such a relaxing hobby. Can't knit in summer here, too hot and humid. Still enjoy tapestry/needlepoint, some patchwork and anything by Kaffe Fasset

I love knitting but as I have arthritis it's difficult now, I use bamboo needles and these help a little once you get used to them bending +::O_o

Wow, that's fantastic. I tried knitting, but was as bad at it as sketching! Guess the only thing
I can do is write! You are good at so many things, Bodeia!

Your knits are lovely, Bodeia!

I'll bet your grandson loved them! +::biggrin

Well he's 4 now and is starting to get "fashion" sense (don't remember ever having that) so sometimes he's a little antsy about the things I knit and he'll come tell me what he want +::O_o

- I'm looking for a ben10 knit at the moment but will probably have to recreate it myself like I did with the Thomas Tank. +::sos

These are great bodeia!
I especially love the lion! It's so adorable, I want to squeeze it! +:oops:

Since I was a kid, I've always wanted to learn how to knit but I don't have much time to learn. +::biggrin

When I was around 7 or 8 I used to like to make macrame. I know I am a guy. +:oops:

Very nice what you have made.

My Auntie always liked knitting hats, scarfs and mittens for me when I was a little boy

Thank You
