Knit for Victory: March 2015
http://knitforvictoryblog.blogspot.com/2015_03_01_archive.html
Monday, 23 March 2015. A small knitted snipe on a grey March beach. I love these little birds' long, long beaks! Wednesday, 11 March 2015. Easter chick free knitting pattern. Here's my knitting pattern for a little Easter chick! He (or she) is quick and simple to knit - why not knit a chick or two as little Easter gifts or decorations? The free knitting pattern is below. This little chick is worked in stocking stitch, on a pair of 4mm (UK 8, US 6) knitting needles using DK yarn. Oddments of yellow DK yarn.

Knit for Victory: December 2014
http://knitforvictoryblog.blogspot.com/2014_12_01_archive.html
Tuesday, 9 December 2014. This knitted European Green Woodpecker was hanging out in my freezing winter garden. Not a great photo, but I was in a rush because I was feeling guilty about the crowd of sparrows I had disturbed at the bird feeders while faffing around with the woodpecker. It's not nice being guilt - tripped by tiny, cold birds. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Subscribe to my mailing list. Worthing, West Sussex, United Kingdom. View my complete profile.

Knit for Victory: October 2014
http://knitforvictoryblog.blogspot.com/2014_10_01_archive.html
Tuesday, 21 October 2014. When I started knitting birds a few years ago, I never imagined that one of them would end up starring in a music video. This is my knitted lapwing, brought to life by the very talented Russell Jeanes. For the beautiful video for Russell Jeane's equally beautiful song, Simple Jayne. Tuesday, 7 October 2014. Quoth the raven, nevermore. Labels: edgar allan poe. Friday, 3 October 2014. Family of knitted mallard ducks, off for a swim on the kitchen table. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Knit for Victory: Paul O'Grady knitted doll
http://knitforvictoryblog.blogspot.com/2015/05/paul-ogrady-knitted-doll.html
Tuesday, 12 May 2015. Paul O'Grady knitted doll. Well, here's an interesting break from the knitted birds: it's much-loved TV host and funny guy Paul O'Grady and his lovely dog, Olga. I was asked to knit them by his TV production company, and the dolls should appear on his ITV show sometime after today. This was the first time I have ever designed and knitted a dog, so it was pretty nerve-wracking knowing that the finished woolly hound was going to appear on a major TV channel!

Knit for Victory: April 2015
http://knitforvictoryblog.blogspot.com/2015_04_01_archive.html
Saturday, 25 April 2015. Next up on my quest to knit birds from round the world - a knitted flamingo! While I was doing some research about the flamingo before I started knitting, I found out a couple of interesting facts. The pink shade of the flamingo depends on its diet - they eat shrimp and the colouring from the shrimp gives them their lovely pink hue. Flamingos in zoos have to be fed food with colouring added otherwise they would not be pink. I will post some photos of the whole flock soon! I love ...

Tuesday, 30 September 2014. Knitted eggs and nest. Just finished a little knitted nest and eggs - the pattern will be in my knitted birds book. Both are knitted on 2 needles (I hate knitting in the round! Thursday, 25 September 2014. These are the smallest birds I've knitted so far - these mallard ducklings are about 2 inches long. Wednesday, 17 September 2014. Well that was rather magical, I was knitting a magpie and then when I got up to take a break, there was this beautiful magpie feather on the floor.
