Future Knitting Antics

I had a quick shuffle round the charity shops at the weekend and came across these lovely knitting patterns. I am not a knitter as such, I can knit, but have not made anything substantial since I was at school, and even then it was a one armed angora jumper (I got bored).

I plan to get back into knitting sometime soon and I just had to have these when I saw them for 20p each. There was a whole box full of patterns that someone had donated and I wanted them all, but settled for these:

How cool are these, mosters to knit, Frankenstein's monster, mummies and witches:

This is one of my favourites from this booklet, can you see him...

...of course not it's the invisible man!

I got ten of these Beatrix Potter Nursery Collection Patterns, here are just a few:

I checked google and these are selling on ebay for £25 each!!!

And this cushion and blanket pattern:

I got lots of these doll patterns including this one which is similar to a rag doll I had when I was a kid, this is Cinderella:

Who flips to show, Cinderella ready for the ball!

Ain't she pretty?

Some christmas makes:

This one made me think of Char, knitted dinosaurs:

There is a full book of those topsy turnabout dolls:

This little guy bears a striking resemblance to Peter the Disabled Duck from Harry Hill's TV Burp:

I generally find clowns spooky, bit these ones are quite sweet:

Here is another moving doll, here she is sleeping:

and on the other side...

She is awake!

How about a knitted Sunday Lunch, most odd?

These may be a bit ambitious but I will get there I'm sure.

On a different note following my post about getting healthy the other day I have decided to get to grips with the healthy living and have made a start by joining Slimming World. I joined on Wednesday night, I was stunned to see how heavy I was I must have had my head in the sand. Anyway I am up for this and ready to make a change, so I might bleat on about it from time to time.
