Knitted Icons







My brother bought me this book of knitted dolls - each one an 'icon'! It's suberb! - Jacquie Onassis, Mr T, David Bowie, Madonna - there's 25 in all. Few pics attached (not very good I'm afraid). They are fab if a tad bizzare especially Chairman Mao!

Love it! Have done it since me mum couldn't finish a jumper when I was a kid and I just finished it off - me nan had shown me how. Don't like wasting time so can do it watching telly or whatever. Love doing socks! Had my share of disasters too lol. The worst was an aran that I did when a student. I washed it and left it to dry and a mate thought she was doing me a favour and tumbled it! Shrank beyond belief!!!
