Advent Countdown - Day 27

For most of us Christmas is now over and a lot of people will be returning to work today but, for me and my friend, Christmas does not mark the end of our Advent presents, we cheat and our calender runs up to the end of the year.

Today her package contains another new set of clothes for her Little Cotton Rabbit friends.  If you look closely you will see that I have been experimenting with that yarn which changes colours, this time it is shades of blue.  I have teamed this 4 ply yarn with a slightly darker solid blue 4 ply cotton and the design is my take on the Julie Williams' Little Cotton Rabbit patterns.


And here we have the two outfits modelled by our good friends, the monkey twins - they are actually the same size, but in this photograph they look like big brother with his little sister.


That's it for this post but there will be more later today.

      Thank you. I remember this type of wool being all the rage when I was a young girl and my grandmother made both my sister and I cardigans in it.

    These are very striking. The mixed wool gives the feeling of a summer sky.xxx

    That blue has some very pretty colours and so fresh - and, of course, good for both a boy or a girl.
