Introducing Onu man

This my first finished knitting project :) please don't laugh hes a bit basic but i enjoyed making him ,knitting is very therapeutic and i love making toys for my pixies . I asked Ben what we should call him and he said Onu man !? oh well atleast its a original name :)
needle felted ladybirds for our seasonal table when it gets more summery .

This is what i found when i opened my craft basket (converted from a picnic basket) our cat Smeagol curled up asleep in it !

  5. I love Onu man! It's great how with buttons and creativity a first attempt becomes it's own little character. The ladybirds are very pixiesque! Am inspired and feeling the need to make, not had my creative hands busy for a while. x
