I came across this pattern by Mary Jane Mucklestone (who knew she designed eyeballs?) and cast-on immediately. I'm definitely going to make more (in-between knitting Miranda's costume) and perhaps put a whole bowl of them on the front porch. Hmmm, maybe I should put them in the same bowl that I fill with treats to give out on Halloween. After all, you are supposed to be a little scared on all hallow's eve, right?
P.S. My friend Beverly says I should add some red yarn to make a few eyeballs look bloodshot. I think that's a great idea!
Creepy! Perfect for Halloween!
ReplyDeleteHaha! They're great! At first I thought you're gonna use them for spiders' eyes:)
ReplyDeleteBoooo ! ! ! !
ReplyDeleteLooks like your knittin' for the season, gal.
hugs
I don't 'do' Halloween, but I do love your eyeballs, very clever, I think my boys would like these too!
ReplyDeleteCool! That's so much for pointing me to this pattern. I knit lots of toys and you never know when knitted eyeballs would be purr-fect!
ReplyDeleteOops...that's "thanks"...I really should use your handy preview feature!
ReplyDeleteYou're so funny. Eric is casting hopeful comments towards Halloween decorations at this end, but we're just not big on it here, and I have put a firm foot down. Mean mummy, I know. Good on you for creating a great Halloween atmosphere!
ReplyDeleteHear it's a bit cold over where you are at the moment... I hope you're staying warm and safe.
Happy Halloween!
