Knit toys to treasure

knitted

Bella the Cat

Because she sometimes feels the cold, Bella likes to dress warmly in her favorite sweater and skirt. If she finds herself at a loose end, she entertains herself by chasing the pompoms on her scarf.

knit

Tilly the Hare

A cardigan with a carrot motif seems like the perfect outfit choice for an afternoon pottering at the allotment, but Tilly’s beautiful white dress is unlikely to stay that way for long…

knit

George the Dog

Dressed for adventure, George has his pockets full of dog treats and a neck scarf to catch any drool if he gets too excited. He’s wearing his best jeans and striped sweater, and he’s ready for anything!

And their exquisite outfits

knit

Archie the Squirrel

Lucky for Archie that he’s good with a spreadsheet, or he’d never keep track of where he hid last year’s nuts. He’s just off to check the data now, in his tie and waistcoat, summer shorts and T-bar shoes.

knit

Charlotte the Fox

What a smart fox Charlotte is, in every sense! Her pretty dress and linen coat are the perfect ensemble for a trip to the city. She’s off to the science museum with her packed lunch in her satchel.

knit

Stanley the Raccoon

Irrepressible Stanley keeps his schoolteachers on their toes, but now it’s vacation time and he’s off in search of some seaside fun in his striped shorts, and matching red sneakers and sweater.

Editorial Reviews

Review

"Advanced knitters looking for a new challenge will find one in Crowther's beautiful designs, and children will love the whimsical results." ~Publishers Weekly

"While there are many knitting patterns available for stuffed animals, there are fewer that include clothing for those animals, and even fewer with clothing that can be fully removed and used on other softies. Crowther does all of the above with the 13 intermediate-level patterns for animals included here, ranging from those commonly kept as family pets to farm animals and woodland critters." --Booklist

Hello

I am Louise Crowther, a British knitting designer who loves knitting dolls, toys and decorations – basically anything that is small and neat and you don't need to worry about whether it will fit you or not when you've finished!

I have been involved with textile design all my working life, starting my career as a Jacquard designer based in Yorkshire, creating elaborate, woven cloth designs for the corporate market and high street fashion retailers.

My passion for knitting started about ten years ago when my eldest son wanted to learn how to knit, and although his interest in knitting lasted no longer than a week, I was hooked! Unable to find any knitting patterns for toys that really appealed to me, I decided to have a go at creating my own; and so began the next chapter of my design career. I have become one of those lucky people who's hobby has turned into a day job, and now run the small but successful business Boo-Biloo.

My work has been featured in various magazines including Making Gifts and Simply Knitting and my first book My Knitted Doll will be released in October 2016.

Although I will always be a Yorkshire girl at heart, I now live in a lovely little town in Northamptonshire, where I divide my time between looking after my family, designing and knitting.
