A few weeks ago, Marion (one of our store associates and knitter extraordinaire) came into my office to show me her latest creation for her grandkids:

Too cute!

Even cuter!  These aren’t just knitted bears – these bears are dressed up!  The bee and ladybug pattern are just two of 20 equally adorable bears in Val Pierce’s book Knitted Bears All Dressed Up

I’ve always had a soft spot for stuffed animals, even as a child.  I was not a doll person at all.  Stuffed animals – I had a herd!

This is a fantastic little book to have on hand when you need a quick project to take with you or need to knit up a quick gift.  Chances are you have yarn in your stash that would work – even if you have to be a bit imaginative on the color scheme

Enjoy!
