More Mice

Thank you for all the lovely comments on my grey blanket, I really appreciate them.

Whilst browsing Pinterest and Ravelry, I've been attracted to these gorgeous knitted mice for quite some time.



So I've given into the urge and bought the knitting pattern.


They are the amazing designs of Susan Hickson over at Mary Jane's Tearoom.  The pattern is wonderfully detailed and very clearly explained.

And of course, once you've bought the pattern, you just have to, have to cast on straight away and start knitting one of the little lovelies.


As an aside, I reckon that if you analysed all the knitting and crocheting blogs, or indeed any craft blog, you would find that the word 'start' appears far more times than the word 'finish'!!!

So, I'm going to make this little mouse called Fifi.  She'll be a lovely grey mouse.


I can't wait to pick the colours for her clothes.  And then I might make a pink mouse...  and what about a yellow mouse!  I see lots of mice appearing over the next few weeks!

    1. Hi Joy,
      I'm looking forward to finishing my mouse and showing her off. The problem accessing the doily post was not you, it was me! It should be available tomorrow.
      Best wishes,
      Janet
