Where is Monkey?

Just Hanging!


This is my daughters beloved monkey handmade by Woolies. He has some times been a she and his name has changed many times. His tummy is slightly worn where her arm holds him and I find him in the strangest places, or just hanging around.

I find monkey in the strangest places, or just hanging around. Follow us each week to see where he turns up next!

A Knitted Friend Born from Love!


Every child loves to have something to snuggle and love. I still have my first teddy bear a hand-me-down from my brother but my bear was so loved he hardly has any fur left. For my own children I wanted something that was a little different. I didn't want something born from a factory.


For my daughter I wanted something made with love, something she would cherish and keep forever. I wanted something born from the love and imagination of the maker. Something made with loving hand that gently took some beautiful yarn carefully selected and then lovingly stuffed with the same care.


Etsy is a great place to find such items and Sara was just the right artist to create this toy for my daughter. Words from the artist; "Knitting is my passion - the colors, the textures, I love it all and hope that you do too! My favorite things to knit are animals..." If you don't know these wonderful toys from site then you must take the time to look in a lovely shop, Woolies by Sara.
