Love - donna wilson

Hi Everyone, it has been pretty manic in the last few weeks, my partner and I are moving house soon and have been trying to pack, work, and meet up with friends before we go.  We are moving up to Worcestershire for more space and rural loveliness!

  I wanted to share my love of the designer Donna Wilson today.  I love her quirky knitted animals and cushions.  Donna's range has grown quickly and there are loads of cute accessories for you or your home.  You can have a look at her website here.

Robin cushion

Owl and the pussy cat cushion

Love this Welsh blanket in fab contemporary colours.

 How cute is this little owl beaker!

 Love the pattern and colours on this plate.

This is Donna Wilson's first knitting book, with 35 easy to follow projects of fun and quirky creatures.

Inside the book - one of the projects you can knit.

And finally, how cute is this bunny chocolate egg, get some for Easter festivities, along with more characters to choose from.

Make it - little kits

There are so many kits to make more or less whatever you like so thought I would list a few for little kiddie winks, or those young at heart!

These winter companions are by Mibo and sold at Pookie & Peach.  The online shop is sweet with a good range of items, worth a look for children's goodies.

These cute pooches are from the knitting book 'Best in show' by Sally Muir and Joanna Osborne.  Published by Collins & Brown £12.99

These funky little owls (family of 3) are from Clothkits which is a company which has been running for 40 years.  Have a look on their site if you like sewing or want gift ideas for those that do.

 Make your own monster is by Donna Wilson, a designer I also LOVE!   The creature is pre-stitched so no sewing skills are needed and your monster can turn out however you wish it to, no rules apply!
