Once again (it only happens occasionally) I am joining the lovely Annie with her "Smiles". Just had to do a post to show her that I had, indeed, knitted a jerkin for my little friend Spencer.
Now Spencer came to live with me years ago, courtesy of a friend in Milton Keynes, and as he was an M&S little bear he had to be christened Spencer. Spencer has a small wardrobe which I have managed to collect along the way, some of you may have seen him wearing his sombrero which my American friend, Maria, bought for him in Olvera Street, LA a few years ago.
I decided this Christmas it was time he had something new so he got a hat knitted and his friend also had one. Here they are modelling what they got
They both got a new hat for Christmas and then Spencer got a rather long gilet, to cover his bottom, and his girlfriend got a skirt. She cannot wear a top as her arms are firmly clenched (stitched) so I cannot put her arms through anything.
She is the second girlfriend he has had as the first one was rather a bully. She was always kicking him off the seat they were on and I kept finding the poor mite on the floor. Now he seems much happier and they and their little pig toy (it is a light for the night) will now be ready to face this cold weather we are experiencing when they go out anywhere.
So "thank you Aunty Annie for the pattern for the gilet and hat" says Spencer, and now we will link up to her Smiles. Hope this has made you smile too.
