More itty bitty bags



I discovered this wonderful bag at a Craft Fair. 
It's crocheted using two strands of thick heavy duty wool which makes a really sturdy bag 
Perfect for storing my work in progress






I liked it so much I made my own colourful version using two strands of chunky acrylic yarn

Itty bitty knitted people...



These dolls are such fun to make and they all evolve so differently that I can't decide which is my favourite

Itty Bitty Crafties...






My kindle paper white fits into this sleeve


I liked it so much that I made one in pink and blue too 

_____________


I needed a handy little pouch for my needles, tape measure and knitting notes



It fits easily into my bag






With room for a tape measure, some tapestry needles


A handy notebook and a couple of crochet hooks

Perfect.








Itty Bitty Baby Blankies...



Sands, the stillbirth and neonatal death charity, appeals to knitters to make baby blankets for the charity’s `Always Loved, Never Forgotten Memory boxes’. 







The blanket can be knitted with or without a lace border and the pattern requires approximately 200g of white double knit wool.

I recently made this white blanket to help with the appeal 


I liked the easy pattern so much 

I made another one, not for the charity, in a beautiful soft pink mingled yarn.

They are incredibly easy to knit.

The border is added when the main blanket is finished.
