Remember when....

Do you remember a few months ago when I hinted that I was doing some very special super secret projects? 

Well here's one of them! I'd like to introduce you to Mr and Mrs Cat! 

Aren't they sweet? I was asked to do these as a custom order , for an actual couple who were getting married! The grooms mum had seen my owls and requested some cats!! 

And do you want to know the very best thing about cats? They have tails so you can do this!!! 

I attached press studs to the backs of their heads an tails so they can be entwined! Or 

 

Apart! (Everybody needs a little space you know!!!) 

Bride kitty features a full net skirt, sash, jewelled choker and veil and tiara! 

And mr kitty features a top hat, bow tie , one of those weird shirt thingys and a little button hole! 

I've got to say I love doing things like this! Where I can just try and make thingsas sickeningly sweet as possible! 

Now I do have plans to make another cat bride and groom set to pop into my etsy shop, but if you can't wait Mr and Mrs Owl are still available here https://www.etsy.com/listing/192446440/pair-of-knitted-wedding-bride-and-groom

 Or if you specifically want cats (or another animal!!) don't hesitate to ask!!! By the way I also do bride and bride and groom and groom. Here at knitwits owls we believe love is love no matter what's happening downstairs! 

Much love!

We Are Gathered Here Today.....

It's Day 14 of Pinterest Fortnight! This is the end! It's the last day! And I cannot wait to relax and recover! I've found knitting needles in every room of the house and I have threads stuck to me constantly!

So the last day, now I have to say I was a bit stuck on this one. It needed to be grand and special! After all this is the Grand Finale! Which got me thinking to a Pinterest board that I haven't covered yet, yes its the secret wedding Pinterest board! Yes I have one, you have one! Everyone has one! You just have to admit it!

 

 

Now I am engaged so I feel I am perfectly justified in having a wedding Pinterest board, however I know that there is not one thing on that board that Mr Knitwit will like. At all. Not one darn thing! the problem is I'm a dreamer/hippie/punk/crafter/crazy and he's well not? He's very stable and sensible. Well they do say opposites attract!

 

For example I thought todays make inspired by my love of pinning weddings on Pinterest is adorable! He ummmm doesn't?

 

Without further ado here it is the Grand Finale!

 

 

I made a Bride and Groom owls! Yes I am that person and I had so much fun doing it! I took most of my inspiration from the eighties if I'm perfectly honest! ( gotta love the eighties weddings! all that lace!)

 

 

Mr Owl has his very own tux and top hat, as well as a knitted flower and a slightly worried expression, appropriate don't you think?

 

 

And of course his own little bow tie!

 

 

And well Mrs Owl? She has it all! Feathers, lace, tulle, a veil , beads!

 

 

No tacky wedding stone was left unturned!

 

 

And she has the wide eyed look of a women that doesn't realise how annoying living with men can be!!!!! Bless her! She'll learn!

 

Well I suppose that's the end? I've been trying to decide when to do this again and I'm thinking when I reach 1000 pins on my inspiration board. So I'll see you next week (oh I really hope its not reached 1000 by next week!)

 

Thank you everyone who's been reading and commenting , either on here or privately on Facebook. and for all the people who have retweeted me on twitter! I've had a blast!

 

Now what am I going to do with all this free time? I'm actually starting to feel naked without a needle of some sort in my hand! Eeeek!

 

Much Love

 

Frankie
