First I made this reversible egg and nest for young Daniel and it was a great success.

He loved the way the egg transforms into a little bird.

The pattern is from itty-bitty toys.

Next I finished these lacy anklet socks for a special person and they will be winging their way to her shortly. I know she occasionally looks at my blog so I don't want to spoil the surprise completely. The yarn is Patonyle - lovely and soft. The pattern is from an old Creative Knitting magazine and unfortunately I now longer have the issue details. Oh and note the lovely sock blockers - this is their maiden fitting!

At the end of last week I received the Tofutsies from J. Thank you so much! They arrived too late to be included in my personal sock club but I already have plans....

I love the bird in the egg! He's gorgeous. You must be very patient as I'm sure it was quite a fiddly knit!
The little bird in the egg is fantastic, what a clever little toy!!
How did you like using the sock blockers? Your socks look wonderful on them.
Love the toy! If I lose about half a kilo more I will buy the same book. Can't wait. Love the socks too of course, but needs a better photo so I can see the butterfly!
LOVE that little bird - too cute.
And Tofutsies all the way from J!! If I would have known I'd have included a little treat from my house!
Happy New Year.
Oh may goodness, the reversable birds nest is the cutest thing I've seen yet this year, I think. It's so clever!
Thank you dearest coz! The socks have arrived and what a surprise!! I love them - they are beautiful and sit so comfy on my feet. I haven't been visiting your blog for a while so I had no idea :) I think I might sleep with them tonight ... hehe
