I've finished knitting this little puppy his very own knitted blanket...
And that, my friends, is the completion of my Ravelympics projects for this year!
This pattern "Wrap me up Puppies" is also from the book Itty Bitty Toys.
I just love this book. This is now the 3rd pattern I've knit from it.
I'm pretty sure that Susan B. Anderson is a toy knitting genius.
My daughter absolutely loves putting her stuffed animals and dolls to bed.
That is by far her favorite playtime activity. From the first time I flipped through this pattern book, I knew that this is a toy that I would definitely make one day.
I just love how you can wrap this little blanket around and fasten it up like a little puppy burrito.
Very clever.
This puppy and blanket only took a few days to knit,
and was the easiest toy out of the 3 to make. I would definitely consider making this one again.
My daughter is of course thrilled to add puppy to her knitted toy collection..
...which is growing quite large these days...
So cute! You're building her quite the collection!
ReplyDeleteWow, that's a lot of knitted toys! That dog is so cute!
ReplyDeleteWow... I love it and I'm totally not a dog person. I hope that my children have plenty of knitted toys like your daughter, I'm pretty sure they will!
ReplyDeleteJust adorable. :)
ReplyDeletelove that last shot!
ReplyDeleteWell done on what you achieved during th olyimpics - I was so slack here and the times that we got it on tv I was too tired (and the fact that I chose lace patterns - not a wise move:(
ReplyDeleteLove the little puppy and that pile of toys is impressive.
I like the puppy "burrito"! Too cute! You did a FAB job on all the projects this year.

This is quite possibly the cutest knit toy I have ever seen! I just love the collection that you are building her - so sweet.
ReplyDeleteThe little puppy is so cute with his knitted blanket. I have the same book and I might just have to knit some toys for my god-daughter soon. I am sure she would love something out of it for xmas. I love that photo of your daughter sitting with all her knitted toys!
ReplyDeleteThat is all just so cute! Well done for completing all of it on time!
ReplyDeleteWhat a lucky girl, she's got so many lovely handmade toys.
ReplyDeletethat last photo of your daughter with all her knitted toys makes me want to start a knitted toy hope chest for my future little ones!! So darling.
ReplyDeleteThese are so great! I love Susan Anderson's Itty Bitty Toys, and have made the lamb as well. Your stitches look perfect! With the little toys, and all of the increases and decreases, as well as working with worsted cotton, my toys look a lot less flawless than yours! Guess I can look forward to mine looking like these with time!
ReplyDeleteGood job, and thanks for posting!
This is adorable, I can't believe how many toys you've knit for her! Congrats on the completion of your Ravelympics goals! :)
ReplyDeleteVery lovely! She looks so happy :) Congrats on finishing your ravelympics too!
ReplyDeleteAwesome little puppy with matching blanket. You've made me want to go out and get her new book. She really is an amazing toy designer.
ReplyDeleteOMG IZ DED OF CUTE at that last pic!
ReplyDeleteNow I am feeling broody just so I can knit adorable things for my hypothetical offspring!
You did it! Way to go Alana. And such cuteness!
ReplyDeleteCute:)
ReplyDeleteShe looks so happy :)
Bravissimo
Oh goodness! That is so cute! Your daughter is very lucky indeed!
ReplyDeleteSo incredibly adorable! Fuels my obsession with knitted toys even more. I featured your dog and sheep on my blog :) chickadeedesignsknitwear.blogspot.com
ReplyDeleteThat is such a cute picture! Love the little toys.
ReplyDeleteI LOVE the wrap-me-up pup! What a great way to wrap up the ravelympics.
ReplyDeleteI have to say, it kind of worries me that a friend took a picture of me holding her handspun which is almost identical to your daughter and her stuffies...
Your lucky daughter has so many beautiful knitted toys! They look so so so cute together!
ReplyDeleteI just had a baby boy, and you made me want to have a baby girl now...
How adorable is that! She looks so happy!
ReplyDeleteThis has to be the happiest little girl on earth!
