Many is the year that I have taken to my sewing table with items animal-y.  And, because you asked (!), it’s now time for a run down.  So, without further ado, for your viewing, pointing and laughing, pleasure!  Here are my makes.  Furred, feathered and in some cases purely un-fathomable.

In top spot is the sassy raccoon sleep set.

Pole position due to a triptych of traits – durability, practicality and comfortability (?)

Second by a whisker is the newest jungle recruit, the orange feathered affair.

Warm of tone and blending with all, she be my new favourite thing.

Mid-table in the league of jungle makes is a trio of knitty things bedecked with zebra stripes, leopard print and flamingoes.

One short sword is just never enough

At the bottom of the jungle food chain are some failed experiments in fur(&, &), a shirt that doesn’t quite flatter and a zebra print that needs an occasion.

What have I learned from the retrospective?  That experimentation is good, even if it ends in failure and faux fur is a flecker to work with.

Thank you!  Pretty Grievances for leading me to the jungle year after year #wearthatgrrr!
