Finally I can show you a picture of Robert the bear, who I have been knitting for Tony's Birthday. He is from a book -The Knitted Teddy Bear by Sandra Polley. Tony chose him and decided he should be red. I used Rowan Classic Poppy and Donkey colours with added plastic beans to give him some weight. I finished him off with a golden yellow bow.
We also gave Tony an ipod video which I made a pocket for from material and batting.
The bear is gorgeous! A great present! Lucy x
ReplyDeleteLovely home crafted goodies :)
ReplyDeleteI think after seeing your red bear and Kaz's red monkey, I need to cast on something red too!
Love the teddy. I suggested a knitted Ipod cover but was shot down. The Cath Kidston version was similarly rejected.
ReplyDeleteJane-- what a very cute bear!!! and I love the iPod case-- I think I'll make one of those!
ReplyDeleteWhat an adorable teddy bear! :)
ReplyDeleteLove the little ipod case, i want to make one for my new camera. Now that the memory card is here and ive got it working i have been taking lots of photos of items around my house which i love, and il be writing a blog about them all later this morning. Of course one of the things on the list is my collection of teas, just one thing we have in common!
