Ok I know I have been terribly, terribly lacking on the blog front but I promise it is for totally legit reasons which I will tell you about later. How about I make up for it by putting out a FREE PATTERN?!!
If you look to your right there, just above the Nuggets pattern I have just put up my second free pattern, Monster Nuggets:
Taa Daaa!!!! Can I tell you how in love with these guys I am? They are literally popping up all over the house and have been for the last several weeks as I have worked on them. Notice the 7 in this picture here? Yes, there are 2 more that were made after the picture was taken. At least a couple of them are going to be making their way to work with Mr Danger to sit on his desk just to make some more room at home.
These are too, too fun and I hope you all enjoy them as much as I do! To download the pattern just click on the button right up there on the right hand side of the blog here. Or, I am off to ravelry now to put them up for free there too.
Just email me with questions, and I would love it if you email me pictures of finished Chunks too!
Alright, I promise better blogging ahead. Things have calmed down quite a bit and I think I have everything back under "control" now. Now go, get knitting! And if you don't know how to knit, go learn how!
Oh I love these guys! Seriously, I needed some kind of pick me up and these guys have provided it! Thanks so much for sharing the pattern. Now I know what to do with all my leftover yarn! The Monster Chunks won't eat my Bunny Nuggets, right? ;)

So darn cute! I'm off to make some for my little boy, who I'm sure will enjoy throwing them at my head. Oh, and his favorite band is also the Black Eyed Peas, so he'll have lots to chat about with his Chunks.

Must. Make. For. Kids. NOW!
Seriously, I think these will be a hit, and no parts to get pulled off, like Robbie's antenna.
Thank you!

Oh, so cute! I'm married to my son's log cabin blanket right now (that's why I haven't knit Tofu yet!) but you're making it hard to stay faithful! I downloaded the pattern already and am trying to resist. :)

These are adorable! I think my hubs might be sporting a few of these on his desk soon, too. :) (He works at a video game company - they'd fit right in.)

I just finished a Maddox before we left on vacation. My 7 year old has had great fun playing with him in the car. I am sure I will make many, many more of your patterns. Thank you for sharing your creativity.

These are AWESOME! I'm brand new to knitting (just scarves so far!) so I'm hoping I can figure these out. Off to look at the pattern now... :) Thanks! Love your site!

OK, so you've heard how everyone thinks they're adorable. Me too! My daughter has requested her own set. She fancies having them loaded in her Sophomore Year locker waiting to pounce (and maybe dance) with the drug sniffing dogs. And she wonders why they like her locker!
PS - I found you because of Whip Up. Congrats on being featured.
