Beware Rude

Oh My God, just stumbled across this gem on a blog called whywouldyouknitthat
Had to post it, avert your eyes if you don't have good taste in knit wear.

Brad is Rad

Soft Rocks has been making these knitted chains for a while and lo and behold, Brad Pitt is sporting one just like them in the latest round of paparazzi shots.

Brad, Forget the marital woes, go for more woollen jewellery to soften the blows!

Get yours HERE for the boyfriend.

False Food Fetish

I have a deep love for false food, and have since I was a small girl. These Choc dipped Strawberries are from Dirty Ass Soaps on Etsy. Check out the range!

They also have cheese and crackers to clense your cheesey cracks:

Good Advice

This is very inspiring...good advice I think. Taken from a WW II propoganda poster and available HERE on ETSY.

Baby Limb Hooktastic

These are FANTASTIC, from Luxford St, I have four and am going to buy this if you don't...you have two days. I have them all up the wall and then I buy necklaces from the interweb to hang on them. It is my hobby. Esther

Hot Diggerty Dog

I had great fun making this for a toggle.co.nz customer. What is it about fake food? I love it. Lots of debate about the correct colour for the sausage in our house. Esther

Bam Bam Creative

Jessica Whiting fabulous wall embellishments now available on toggle.co.nz HERE.

Floppy Fabulousness

Discovered on ETSY this notepad made from an old floppy disc. Great! One is winging its way from Spain for me! Esther

Sushi Satisfaction

I am having the best time making this crocheted sushi. I was on a promise to my daughter Ruby to make her some as I keep snatching it of her to sell at Kraftbomb. I have extended the range to include that inside out Californian Roll and a wizard Panko Crumbed Prawn Ngiri. I haven't put a magnet in these ones and thought maybe listing them as sets of playfood? Esther

Sunday Stitchin'

A group of toggle and Kraftbomb folk had a great time stitching away at the Auckland Art Gallery in the Yinka Shonibare MBE show.

JB Bones completed this work above.

Esther and Kirsten (Cheek Pinchy) helped the public make badges from a huge pile of mad fabric.

City's (NZ Cupcake Queen) lovely husband Chris and Karen's (Luxford St) gorgeous boy Fred made their first forays into the splendid world of stitch.
