Strictly Ladies only!!!

Ladies, I can only speak for myself but I believe when it come to "that time of the month" we are all under the same hat... Mess in emotions, mess in your taste buds, mess in the bag. Tampons and pads always thrown in the bag, lying somewhere or even everywhere... With a technical help and advice of my mom - here is the finished idea how to keep it all neat. Measurements- width -14cm, length -15cm, side thickens 2,5cm thick when filled with the goods of your choice. How did I ever lived without it ?!?

Strange looking rabbits.

A little bit different toys :) When you are looking for something more original and unique- handmade is the only way! These rabbits are 42cm tall, made of cotton and stuffed with polyester fibre filling. This is work of my great teacher - my mom Irina. She is definitely hired into the world of crafters hobbit as toy maker !

I am so blessed to have such crafty people in my family. Hope I won't fail to pass the knowledge to my toe darlings...

Plain and earthy .

Here is one super fast project for my sweetheart. He asked me to make him a simple, plain, earth color, extra deep hobbit hood. I had no pattern to fallow so I had to learn how to create one in a day... Needles to say it was an emotional rollercoaster.. excitement and stress, discoveries and nervous breakdowns... so much knowledge gained from one project! When it was time to put the hoodie on - I could not believe it was a perfect fit! Joy of a successful project makes you feel you can be an astronaut!

Meet my precious "Stone Hood". Once again!!!

If you have missed the beginning of this hoodie - here is a quick info:

Hand knitted with rough, bulky 100% pure Irish wool and lined with windproof, breathable fleece, this jumper has cold resistance up to -5°C. The wool is a very precious 100% pure Irish wool which has been produced in a historic mill in Kilcar, Donegal for over 100 years. Although the wool has a real rough look and feel to it, the lining inside is very soft and cosy and it goes all around the jumper, neck and hood.

What s new about this hoodie? It is being tested!!!!! I am so, so, so excited! This hoodie got a lot of attention due to its roughness and weather resistance :) The person wearing this jumper after returning from Tatra mountains in Slovakia said: "It was like a shield for my body." Yey!!! I'm getting close to my desired results!

Mommy and Son hoodie.

Merry Christmas to everyone!!! I am wishing you and your family Christmas filled with happy moment, plenty of laugh, positive thoughts and satisfied bellies! One of my last Christmas orders which will be patiently waiting to be unwrapped under a Christmas Tree somewhere on the other side of the Celtic Sea :) A Mom and her 2 year old Son will have a surprise of matching hoodies. Lets hope they will like it :D

Wear your story.

Here is some of my latest designs. Every hoodie is hand made, customised, each design is used just once. Every hoodie tells a story. A story helps children to connect to their fairytale and jump into their imagination walking hand in hand with their heroes, visit favourite places or carry a special moment with them at all times :) Visit Hobbit Friendly Facebook page to read some of the stories behind the hoodies :) https://www.facebook.com/HobbitFriendly
