Some holiday knitting

Long time no blog. Its been a busy holiday season and so I have not done too much blogging. I also decided to keep the knitting to a minimum and not plan to knit anyone a gift for x-mas. Well, that went right out the window when one day I logged onto knitty and saw the cute dumpling/cat toy pattern called feline dim sum. Brilliant! My mother has two kitties that could always use some more toys and since we are going to be spending the day up there I figured I would make them a little something festive. I made these three things for Lucy, she loves to hunt so I wanted to stick to animals.

carrot, bird and fish 

Unfortunately my several attempts to make a snake forced me to resort to a much simpler carrot. These three were all crocheted.
