I recently finished preparing this basket of knitted play fruit for the children at our Waldorf-inspired summer camp. Sadly, my girls will not be attending this year (too old!). I adapted (knit in the round instead of flat) some patterns from Susie Johns Knitted Fruit book. For the strawberries, apple and pear, I used patterns from Linda Dawkins. My Ravelry notes can be found here.
Over the weekend I sewed myself a new summer skirt using a skirt that I already own and love as a model (no pattern!). The fabric is lovely Anna Maria Horner.
Happy crafting on!
Just beautiful - the fruit and the skirt - creating is so satisfying isn't it?
ReplyDeleteYour basket of fruit is just lovely! And such a beautiful, summery pattern on your skirt. You're very talented!
ReplyDeleteI love the fabric you've used for your skirt
ReplyDeleteThe knitted fruit is great! And I love the color on that skirt.
ReplyDeleteThe fruit is fabulous and (I looked quickly and thought the skirt was another fruit!) the skirt is gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteAmazing knitting!
ReplyDeleteLove the skirt - I can't imagine making one with a pattern let alone without! Enjoy your Toronto trip!
Wow your knit fruit is incredible! Really beautiful and it looks so soft.
