Well...here I am again

Jeez, the time has indeed flown!

I have no excuse other than...um...life got in the way? I am not a very disciplined blogger yet (obviously)but I have been whipping up a storm on the old project front recently. Since my last post I have finished 3 or 4 projects, and yes, I have pics!!

So, there was my wee 2-yr-old cuz's jumper I finally finished on the 11th of August:

K's Jumper

then there was the robin I made for my friend between the 13th and 16th of August (we called him 'Luciano'):

later, between the 20th of August and the 12th of September, I made 'Baby Dennis' for a friend from the LK! site:

and then there was my crowning glory so far (as he was made from no pattern, just by browsing google images of giant anteaters and playing with the yarn) - Dec the Anteater, made between the 15th and 27th of September:

Dec the Anteater

he was a big hit at my Cuz's 11th birthday party (he's the big bruv of the cuz the jumper was for) and the critter is basically bits of overstuffed sock with some crochet over it ;)

The jumper came from the lionbrand website (I think the pattern has been posted before), the robin from here and the dragon was a variation on Iced D's theme, so the same pattern as before. I looked again at Stuff the dragon pattern for inspiration for the Anteater too. Thanks to all the wonderful patternmakers in the world, you inspire me soooo much, even with my bad maths I created something from scratch!! Yaay!
