Veggies and a chicken could be yours!

Well I decided to list the veggies and a chicken on my etsy site.

I also got to take them outside being that we had great sunny weather and got photos so that the colors really show true to life.

Check it out!

Kettle and a spoon

OK I think the gift is finely complete!
I made a bag, of my own design, that holds the veggies and chicken and spoon for storage when not in use,

but also works as the kettle when you open it for hours of enjoyment for the kiddos to "cook".
Plus I thought how can you cook with out a wooden spoon to stir with, so I made another pattern for a wooden spoon!

I think that the gift is now perfect, lol now I have to make it all again for Moira!
So here it is the kettle/bag and spoon!

Veggies and a chicken

Well I made my second pattern ever last night meet spuddy!

So I now have two from scratch patterns under my belt I wonder what other odd creations are locked up in this brain of mine.So this started out as just a fun little project to make for a friends daughters birthday gift. But now I'm hooked on knitting food! lol its fun and different. I think I will try fruit next.



I love the fact that the peas come out of the pod and the husk comes off the corn. Makes it that much more fun for the kids! (I have to know remake all of these btw because my daughter loves them and wants them now too)So here it is my veggies and a chicken!
If you want a set too message me and we will set it up threw my shop
Fun way to get your 5 servings a day huh?

Chicken drumstick

Well I made my first ever knitting pattern today.
Like I said I'm making veggies for my friends daughters first birthday and I thought a chicken drumstick would look cute with it, but I looked online for a pattern and couldn't find one. So I said now how hard could it be to make one myself?
And it wasn't and here it is my drumstick!

Have a secret!

I’m working on a first birthday gift for a friends daughter and its cute I hope that she likes it as much as I’m liking them ;)
Any way I’m making knitted and stuffed veggies! How cute is that?? Maybe I’m the only one that thinks its that cool I hope not.
I will post picks when I have them all done.

BTW the market bag is done and photos will be coming soon.
