I've been burning the midnight oil this past week getting more stock prepared for this weekend, and another three Santa Cats have materialised along the way! These are just so much fun to make - choosing the right colours of clay, and then mixing them until I'm happy with the resultant swirly patterns, which are always unpredictable! A coat of varnish really does help to bring out the pattern - it's like wetting a pebble on the beach, particularly with the darker clays like the centre cat here.
As well as Santa Cats, more Bobble Hat Cats and Rainbow Scarf Cats (twins no less!) have also joined the family:
One of the Rainbow Scarf Cats is winging its way to Blissknits as we speak!
I love the little hats! They're so cute! I know a few people whose lives would be brightened by them!
ReplyDeleteWe should collaborate! I could knit some little mini hats and scarves! Hehe.
Thanks catfaceandpancakes! You know, it has crossed my mind, although the woollen wear would have to be on a very, very tiny scale indeed! Might be fun to try it, though!
