Five Little Monsters

Here are five little monsters from my fall and winter line. Each is one of a kind with a hand knit body and embroidered face. They are knit with various yarns, mostly natural fibers and recycled-content. I just finished stuffing them. I just love getting out my big box of organic cotton stuffing, if only I could curl up inside it!

Our computer should be back tonight. Finally, I can upload pictures from my camera instead of these fuzzy blackberry ones!

There are a couple of bug jars in the works right now. My first one is in the Geek Chic gift guide over at etsy.

Now I must get back to making!

Milk Carton Gift Box

I have been saving garbage and recyclables for a while now. We go through a lot of milk and I haven't had a great use for the cartons. Here's a little gift box I came up with. Pardon the photo quality, my computer is broken so I'm coming at you with my Blackberry. I think I'll experiment with painting or papering it, then tie it with a pretty ribbon.
