Monkey towel

The towel(in the picture below) I made last year, the first one that I placed ears onto was a monkey.  It will be a one of a kind since I will not be attaching ears in the same way.

I decided to lower the position of the ears.  Still haven't decided if I will change it later, but for now that is where they will be.

Start of my Spring 2009

I am still here!  My posting have been few and far apart.  But they are about to start again, as I begin on my newest addition.  Hooded towels.  

The first hooded towels that I made were in 2007. They were gifts for my friend's two sons.  I have always thought hooded towels were a great thing.  You can just set it on your head and your hands are free to do other things without worrying about dropping the towel.  The towels I made in 2007 were just plain towels with a hood.  Last year when making another gift, I added ears to the towel.  

I was out shopping earlier this year and saw striped towels and thought... tigers! It was at that moment I knew I was ready to embark on creating them for Little frog.  I excitedly got a bunch of towels in gray and yellow.  And started on creating the tiger hoods.

More hoods to come in the next few days...
