When Life gives you wool....

So today I decided I'd do something a little different. For many months now my mum has been obsessed with knitting for some bizarre reason. I am still trying to puzzle out whether this is some kind of strange mid life crisis but otherwise she has been knitting some pretty amazing stuff. She has knitted everything from cushions to bunny booties and they all look pretty professional if you ask me. Some today I decided it show this little pieces off, if you like them feel free to comment on it and such sort. Anyway on with the knitted goods!!!

Knitted completely by hand took about 5 days to make and sow

 Made of an old jumper I wore for world book day many years ago, little bit of history. We have nicknamed this cushion the 'Weasley cushion'.

Again made out of an old jumper she knitted

This was inspired by a website she found with loads of knitting patterns on and knitted it based on a pattern. It is very authentic kind of style and the patterns on this website are based around the fair isle knits famous in the Shetland Isles.

This is a close up on the pattern on the main part of the hat as you can see it has teeny little colourful flowers on it, plus these things are so comfy and cosy in the winter. 

These are unbelievably cool, these adorable little bunny booties are honestly one of the cutest things I have ever seen. I think my mum found the idea on a website, she has also knitted these in blue and pink with the insides of the ears being white, but these have been given away to friends who are having babies. Plus she knitted little bunny tails for them as well!

Last but certainly not least is this scarf that she knitted, I have a feeling this came in different colours but my mum decided on different ones. Again I think this scarf's pattern came from a website which I will leave the link for, it is really cosy and lovely to wear and surprisingly not that itchy!

So there you it some of my lovely mum's knitted goods she knitted other things as gifts but unfortunately they have been sent off, I would mean a lot if you left little comments or joined my blog. The link for the website in which she got some of the designs and has an amazing range of beautiful stuff is: http://katedaviesdesigns.com/ where the hat came from and this site- https://www.ravelry.com/account/login is where she got the design for the bunny booties and the scarf, however you do have to have an account for the second site. 

Hope this was informational to some one and inspired a future knitter. 

Lots of love
