Ellen from The Long Thread made these sweet goose toys for her daughters and was then nice enough to post the instructions on her web site. She also started a Make it Monday Flickr pool for pictures of items that you make following Ellen’s patterns. [via] Link.
I love these plush digger toys created by Elsie Marley, which I spotted in our CRAFT Flickr pool. Every kid I know seems to be obsessed with trucks, trains, and construction gear, so these would make a great gift for any of them. Link.
Cuteable posted about this bizarre yet intriguing sock creature made by Etsy seller, Kinichi River. Something about this guy (his name is Lagoon) is very appealing. [via] Link.
Roxycraft has a free crochet pattern, The Gabu, that looks so adorable to make in different colors. Link.
Just in time for Spring comes this sweet snails ‘n’ shrooms PDF amigurumi pattern from Amy Gaines. I’d like to make a few of these and display them alongside my Heidi Kenney tree stumps! Link.
The CRAFT Flickr pool is always full of inspiration and eye-catching fun, and these rustic owls by Old School Acres are no exception. They were created from a repurposed wool jacket, with vintage button eyes and fabric scrap feathers. Link.
