This little fox is definitely king of the castle!
He is brave and clever! Perhaps sometimes too clever - he looks a little smug!
Always watching what's going on around him!
Although sometimes he has a little lie down on the job!
What a cutie!
Today I found some delightful swans swimming around outside
They are very loving with each other!
So loving in fact the pitter patter of tiny wings appeared!
Mama swan met her match!
But when Mama and Daddy teamed up together! They soon made all safe for baby again.
And swam off happily ever after!
The great thing about these amigurumi swans is how easy they are to crochet! Just as simple as the Owlet pattern!!
I know it is a little early! But I felt in the mood for some cheer. My other half has been in hospital and she is much better now. A little bit of a Christmas miracle! :-)
Merry Christmas to you all! Lots and lots of love from me.

Right out to space!
Yummy and cozy for toes!!
Years ago I made my first Bushbaby I wasn't very happy with it so I thought I would crochet up another version. Here he is the Bushbaby of Carberry Tower
In someways this is a very basic classic amigurumi but I enjoyed creating the two tone effect and I think the fingers are really cute.
I love photographing creatures out in the wild and this Bushbaby in particular really suited being outside and getting up to mischief
I like the flexibility of shape as well so this little Bushbaby is just as happy squirreling up a tree as sitting down and looking cute.
Go on give us a hug!!
Yay - The Chameleon Pattern is done. They seem to have multiplied in my house and now I have them crawling up and down everything from a wooden spoon to the TV!
You can get the pattern here: Chameleon Pattern in the Roman Sock Shop.
I have a longer post on more Scottish adventures coming soon! Here is a sneak peek of our trip to Tantallon Castle - Stunning!
The castle itself was so atmospheric and wonderful
I don't think I have seen such a blue sky for years!
I you have been following this blog you will know I have been struggling a little with inspiration - but taking the pressure off and giving myself a break seems to have taken the pressure of a little!
So without further ado - Introducing the ickle Chameleon.
He is a friendly fellow and likes to hang around in trees or on fingers - Anything goes really!
He especially likes getting his camouflage on!
He has an unlikely playmate! This lovely hammerhead shark - who might be seen as a little fierce for crochet but remember fish are friends and sharks are too.
He is a very handsome fellow and can be found in ponds around the country
If you catch one - its customary to throw it back in!
And to finish off - One kitten pic - Pop and Mish are 4 months old now and as adorable as ever!
awwwwwwww
