More new goodies in my shops

Just a quick post to show you a few of the new items in my shop on Artfire. It's a mixed selection of knitted and crochet goodies.

This is Pervival the Owl. He is looking for someone to adopt him and take him on adventures.

In an attempt to get children to like vegetables I've been making amigurumi carrots. They will come with instructions on how to grow your own carrots. Learn, grow and love.

Amara and Udo are mother and son monsters that originate from Nigeria. They have travelled far in the search for a new home.

Shamus is modelling the latest Pirate Pixie Crew hat. When you own a hat from the PPC you become a crew member. Captain Skulduggery Dug is always looking for more members to join!

This is a pretty little crochet clutch bag so that you can take all the essentials with you when you go out. Phone, check, keys, check, lipstick, check... good to go!

And finally, the Pebbles... all seven of them. They are so sweet and all they want is a new home where they can make friends.

Thanks for stopping by!

I won some wool!

Last week I found out I had won some wool from the lovely Tomato Tea. She was running a blog give away for some stunningly beautiful hand dyed wool, so I commented on the blog post and the random number generator picked me. How fabulous is that!?

The yarn is gorgeous as you can see from the photo above. It has such a beautiful mix of colours.

I decided as soon as I found out I'd won that I would make something from it that I could sell and donate the money from it to the Macmillan Fund. This organisation make life a whole lot better for so many people.

So yesterday I hand knitted this little Pirate Pixie Crew hat from the yarn.

I'm not sure if I should just price the hat and sell it in one of my shops with all the info on the charity the money will go to or auction the hat to try and get a little more cash for the charity. What do you think? What's the best way to be sure to get the most money I can for the Macmillan Charity?
