Jelly Bum Chicken

Chicken Knitting Pattern available from Etsy, Website & Ravelry

I've popped by today to officially announce the release of the Jelly Bum Chicken toy knitting pattern. I'm wondering if you guys are all fed up looking at eggs, especially of the chocolate kind since yesterday! This pattern has been hugely requested over the years so I've been itching to make one. It adds another little animal to the farmyard bunch including the cat, dog, pig, cow, goat and sheep! Keep an eye out for more friends to join them in the very near future.

It's that time of year when a lot of knitters slow down with their projects as the weather heats up. The Jelly Bum patterns are great quick and simple knit projects for passing the time on lazy days in the garden.

This week I want to say a huge well done to Emma G who won the Koala knitting pattern last week. If you want to have a first look at the pattern I'll be releasing on the 28th April then head over to the give-away page for your chance to win the first copy. Remember you got to be in it to win it, and it's really simple with the rafflecopter entry.

So until next week my friends, have lots of fun knitting and best of luck to all the competition entrys.

Frog Toy Knitting Pattern

Pattern available from Etsy, Website & Ravelry

Hey all, today this little froggy will be added to the Jelly Bum crew.  I've had quite a lot of requests for this pattern over the years. I had never really worked out how to design the face to look as you know frogs have those big protruding eyes. I'm really happy with how the finished toy looks, and he has a lot of character is that little green face.

Let me know what you think of him by commenting below or over on the Jelly Bums Facebook page. The frog pattern is now the 37th pattern Jelly Bum design, so i'm now making my way through my huge animal list that I set up when I started designing these knitting pattern nearly 6 years ago! If there is a pattern you would love to see me create them please do let me know as I may not have it down in my list. I was contemplating maybe reaching my original goal of 50 patterns and then branching out a section for different breeds of animals like dogs or monkeys. So if that's what you would like to see me create then let me know.

Want to find out what the next pattern release will be on Tuesday 15th April? Then pop over to the competition page for the chance to win a copy on release day.

See you next week for the next pattern release

Happy Knitting

Camel Knitting Pattern

 Hello all, i've dropped by with another new pattern today, this time it's a camel.
This one was a little tricky to take a photo of as without a side shot it's  difficult to tell what the animal is as its distinguishing feature is obviously its hump.  I just wanted to point out that if you make this little guy, he wont fit into any of the dress up clothes as him hump makes him a lot wider than the other animals.He's really easy to knit up as you only really require increasing decreasing and a small simple colour change.

I've included a side shot for you to see  how he looks from the side.

The Camel pattern is available from the website, Etsy and Ravelry.

I'm still riding this creative wave at the moment and have got cracking with the next new design which I planned. Also good news as i found all my notes on that half finished toy o told you about in the last post which i will complete as a fouth new release. I hope you enjoy the new pattern and remember if you knit then id love you to share.
Have a great weekend and happy knitting.
