Welcome to the Jungle

Today the sun is shining after a few days of rain. About the only thing good about the gloomy weather was the chance to get great FO pictures of my latest knits.

I finished this month's toy kal, the Panda and Zebra Hand Puppets from Itty Bitty Toys.

I think these 2 fellas will have great lives at the library. They can help out at story time and play with the kids in the summer program.

I also finished a little blue bird toy for last month's kal. I had a bit of a time getting decent pictures as the days last week were so hot and sunny (I'm not complaining!). So into the hedge we went. If I were a blue bird I would want to spend time in this hedge!

He even turns into an egg. How clever is that?

I've really been enjoying this ongoing toy kal. The next one will be the Princess and the Pea and will run through July and August. I'm excited to make her. I've never knit a doll and the Princess and the Pea story is such a cute one.
