Introducing: The KISS Gator

Gustavus the Gator is ready to make your acquaintance.  Gus really is a sweet lil' gator, unlike his famous cousin Gustave; the Nile Crocodile of Burundi, known for his dietary preferences (humans) and a PBS television special.

Gus loves hanging out in the AC during the summer months and helping you eat a nice ripe slice of watermelon  or some seedless grapes.  Oh?  I didn't mention that??  Sorry, yes, Gus the Gator is a vegetarian.   He would be "vegan" but he enjoys ice cream too much!

The KISS Gator contains 10 pages of pattern instructions, with detail oriented photographs and instructions to help you bring this 12" tall little chomper into your little one's life.

Special Delivery, Brought to You by Sammy

The Hub had grown increasingly suspicious of me as of late...  I guess it is to be expected when more and more infant items are seen in an otherwise, infant free home.  The latest, prompted the question...

"Umm.. Honey, are you trying to tell me something?"

I'm not, but perhaps Sammy is.

I'm kidding.  The days of surprising the Hub with announcements of our growing family are long done. Well, except for perhaps, the 4-legged variety.
But that has not stopped my love for 'all things baby'; after all, there are plenty of friends and family who are still adding to their numbers.

Sammy the  Stork was created just for that purpose.  What a glorious bird to sit atop a table - what a conversation piece - what a memory.  Sammy is the sort of baby shower gift that will deliver your message of pride and excitement at any Mom's party! Sammy is happy to carry your private message, gift card(s) or cash inside his Messenger Bag or just stand/sit as a table display to bask in all the love of such a monumental occasion.

Sammy the Stork makes a huge impression!  Standing at almost 2 feet tall he would! (approximately 16" in sitting position).   Say congratulations in a BIG way!

This pattern contains 18 pages of written instruction and detail oriented photographs and tutorials to help you create your own Sammy the Stork Plush and is labeled as "Intermediate". To complete this pattern, it is expected that you already know crochet basics such as how to chain, crochet using single crochet stitches, double crochet stitches, treble crochet stitches and how to change yarn colors. You should also know how to crochet in the round, crochet in rows, crochet using a “chain start”, crochet an opening closed, how to increase and decrease crochet stitches as well as how to make use of Back and/or Front Loops Only.

Squeakers the KISS Series Mouse

The People (longtime readers know that 'the people' are my lovely children) have informed me that I can no longer put out any KISS Series plushies without giving them 'suitable names'.  This coming from those who think that a cat named "Chocolate Muffin Cupcake with Sprinkles" and a Dog named "If I Drool On It - It's Mine" are the sorts that simply roll off the tongue with the ease of .. oh I don't know.. Snoopy.
Well, we will see what we can do about 'naming' the KISS Animals both in the future and giving those already published a good name.

The first to be introduced to you in this manner is Squeakers the Mouse.  (Guess who named him?)  Squeakers was actually created in 2009 along with the original 4 - but his notes were lost and while he's not exactly the same as his brother; he is pretty close to the original.
This morning I caught him sneaking into my peanut butter...  3 guesses as to what gave him away...  yup.. he was squeaking trying to get the pesky lid off.

The K.I.S.S. Mouse contains 8 pages of pattern instructions, with detail oriented photographs and instructions to help you bring this sweet little peanut butter loving cutie into your cupboards today.
