It's Not That I Haven't Been Making Stuff..,

...I just haven't been posting it. So, here it is, in a nutshell, I have really been more into gardening (at times it is more like farming) than blogging. I could make promises to update more often for the two or three complete strangers who read this blog, but I will, inevitably, slack off and disappoint. So, I will just post.

I was going through some pictures (we have WAY too many pictures on our computer... curse digital), and found some stuff I had not shared. I just love these little dudes, and every winter, I bust out my knitting needles and make a few. Usually as gifts, and sometimes just 'cause.

Han and Chewy were a gift for my brother in law. I think I nailed Han (even did the pin striping on his pant leg), but Chewy has a bit of a girth issue in the neck. They still look cool. I will have to make another set.
My son was into "Charlie and Brown" as he calls it. I decided to give it a go, and I was very pleased with the results. Not sure where those two ended up, but that beagle and his boy friend are nice. Snoop is only about as tall as the first knuckle of my thumb. Granted, I have good sized thumbs, but he is still tiny.
When I look back at these little dudes, I sometimes can't believe I made this stuff.

I love your little people. What boy wouldn't love Star Wars little yarn people. Love it. I wish you had a like button on your blog.
