I love knitting toys. It started whilst being ill once and discovering the Jean Greenhowe Christmas pattern book and I was hooked, the majority of our decorations are either by Alan Dart or Jean Greenhowe.
I really adore Barbara Prime’s patterns which I discovered by accident on Facebook. My version of her Pug in an Anorak came second in the local country show.
Her most recent dragon pattern was spotted by my youngest and as a household which is majority Welsh it was necessary to create the Red Dragon. I used Robin Chunky yarn (I know it is a bit naff, but I love knitting in acrylic).

I started him before Christmas but he was put on the back burner. He was finished today and has been named Stuffy.
Love it
