Snakes on a Plane



Two friendly reptiles are winging their way to a couple of special little boys I know.



Both are crocheted from Lily Cotton (you know, the cheap stuff) and were fast work. They are pretty fun to make and since you stuff them as you go you are pretty much done when you hit the head.



I do like the shape of the head of the one on the right a bit better than the one on the left but both are cute. Since I enjoyed making these two I think I'll be whipping up a few more for the Goodness Shop which is sadly empty. I hope to remedy that soon. I think these guys make great boy gifts which I am always in need of it seems.

I'll be back soon with my thrifty finds in Baltimore.

cheers

PS: My beloved Rangers are out of the playoffs so you'll all be spared the hockey talk until next season. I think I heard a sigh of relief . . .

Not true, I for one loved the hockey talk. It will continue for me as I'm a Pens fan (please don't throw anything at me.....)

One remark about the Rangers: I was lucky enough to attend game #1 of the series at the Mellon Arena. Even though I was surrounded by Penguins fans and we won, I heard nothing but praise - and lots of it! - for your boy Henrik.

I've been visiting your blog for some time and don't expect that to change so we'll take this up again in October. ;)

Well, those sure are cute! They reminded me of Cecil the Seasick Sea Serpent!

Love the snakes...I know two little boys who would love them also, so I'll be watching the Shop...

I had one of those snakes when I was a kid. Our great aunt made them for us. I think she knitted them, but they were striped like that and everything. What a memory! We played with them all the time. They do make great boy gifts!

I LIKE those snakes! So colorful & happy-looking! Can't wait to see your goodies from Baltimore! As for your Rangers, they are your passion and SHOULD be celebrated! Each of us has a passion to be celebrated!

Too cute. Now if I could only get beyond crocheting one kind of stitch and only rectangles, lol

I got your give-away goodies the other day and am blogging about them now. Thank you so much.

They're both very cute! Sure am glad there are no (real) snakes in Alaska!

Heidi said...

I hear you about boy gifts. These are cute.

My husband is a Flyers fan, so it's still hockey season around here.
