Kitty Von Ditty

I’m so happy - not only did the Avengers Iknitiative get First Prize in their category, they were awarded a Best Exhibit prize too! At most the CWA awards one per section (and those people are harsh judges) so it’s a really great sign of recognition. I get a sash and everything! But the best thing? When I went in to see how I’d done, there was a trio of little kids gathered around them and they wouldn’t let their mum move them on until they’d finished naming them all. So the Avengers Iknitiative is not only award winning, it’s also getting little kids excited about knitting!

‘One Large Enough To Ride’ by Kat Bifield

Okay, totally random, I know. But see, in Australia we call a bachelorette party a hen’s night. So when I was invited to a hen’s night I decided that a knitted hen would be a cute gift for the bride-to-be. So I knitted a hen (I actually used a pattern for this one - Alan Dart’s Star-Spangled Bantam. It did get modified a bit though). And when little knitted Thor saw it his eyes lit up and I was reminded of that quote in the 2011 Thor movie. 

Benedict the Otter and Martin the Hedgehog cosplay Sherlock and John by Kat Bifield

A little bit different to my normal knitting projects but I thought it might interest people anyway. The cable knit sweater is based on the same cable and chevron pattern in the original jumper but scaled down and adjusted for hedgehog anatomy. 

Martin is a ‘Gund Ganley the hedgehog’ ordered online. I’m fairly sure Benedict is a ‘Hansa plush soft toy river otter’. He was bought from Taronga Zoo in Sydney.

He IS the Easter Bunny by Kat Bifield

(I have no idea where this came from. I think I maybe had too much chocolate today. Anywho, happy Easter everyone!)

Have a great Easter Weekend Everybody!

Knitted Bilbo Baggins by Kat Bifield.

I fell in love with the new movie of ‘The Hobbit’. And so I’ve decided to knit it. Or at least Bilbo and as many as the Dwarves as I can manage before I get distracted and decide to knit something else. Oh, and Smaug. Must knit Smaug. 

Knitted Sherlock and John Cosplay Doctor Who by Kat Bifield. 

Because it is my head-canon that John is a fan of the old Dr Who series and when he realises that Sherlock’s dressing gown is Tardis blue he can’t help himself.

Happy Valentine’s Day by Kat Bifield

It’s a bit hard to see from the photo, but that teeny-tiny knitted heart is reasonably accurate, anatomically speaking. 

Reblogging since it’s Valentine’s Day! Lots of love to everyone out there!
