woodland hoodlet


woodland hoodlet pattern i just finished ♥

its good for picking red red berries in the woods.

and for stopping to chat with deer along the way.

sometimes deer are shy to tell you their names are lieselotte & twigs.

so take lots of pretzels with you. deer love pretzels. its the salt.

yay the little heidi spencer tour is done. it was fun because i got to sit in the dark corner and pretend i was david gilmour on the lap steel. yes i know he doesnt play lap steel. but if he did. plus i could drink as much vodka as i wanted to and chirp to myself and no one seemed to notice one bit! its a bit harder to fall over if you are sitting down. it made me love playing out again because my legs werent all wobbly-like. playing out can be nervousing. i know its not a word but it means what i mean.
so... ♥ woodland hoodlet ♥ would you like to make your very own?
here is a quick paypal link if youd like the pattern. its 5.50usd.

oooh also.. here is the quick fox hiding in the shed.
this is the only picture that wasnt so blurry ♥

*shy* xoxo

Lovely fox in the shed... obviously quite startled that you came upon him/her... ! And if I did knit, I'd be tempted!

Elva Undine said...

Perfect hoodlet and perfect fox, they go together like moss and rocks. I still haven't made my little needle holders and now you have this up and I so want it...

Ooh, I do love the fox!

And of course, I am besotted with the hoodlet, so I'm off to purchase now. It looks the perfect think for long walks in the woods with Edward.

Aline said...

Loved the fox! I wonder if he reads the love letters?
Your hoodlet is sooo beautiful! My sister would love something like it. I love everything you have designed so far. Must catch up with you! :) ali xx

Oooh that looks so cosy! I look forward to the cooler autumn days because I like to wear layers of warm clothing and feel really snug. I've never seen a fox round here but I have seen deer. Several times driving home in the dark from the shop, where the road meanders through a woodland, a deer has stepped out into my headlights and I have caught my breath as I watch it gracefully cross and leap onto the opposite bank. Magical!

Christine said...

It's beyond gorgeous. I've been going through your blogs and patterns for the last hour. I'm just in awe....

Jo Potter said...

This is such a lovely post. If I could knit a Woodland Hoodlet for myself I would definitely wear it while I was collecting berries in the forest! :-)
Your hoodlet is a beautiful design. It looks like Celtic knotwork on the front. :-)

When you look into a foxes eyes there is a special moment, like you are connecting with each other.
I have seen a fox in the woods and it was a special when we just stared at each other. Your Mr Fox is stunning. What a magical photo.

Fairy moments.

rediscovering your blog has made my afternoon. And I'm currently listening to owl in the dark - perhaps a little too fan girl but nevermind!! I love that hood you knitted, wish I could knit. Glad to see your cats are looking as cute as ever!

Alex said...

Just read "nervousing" and thought what an appropriate word to describe how things sometimes are... didn't think it wasa word at all... but well, would have appreciated it...then reading your next sentence that it wasn't a word after all... too bad.
Love your unique way to see the world.

Good evening

Just wanted to show my appreciation for your time and hard work

Samantha Rose McDonald said...

Everything you knit is such a dream. I just bought a pattern for your 'Where the Wild Things Are' hat, but alas I'm only a beginner, it will be a while till I finish that! At any rate, I would buy everything you knit if it was ready made. Keep up the lovely craftsmanship.

xoxo
