Too-whit too-woo happy Friday to you, bring out your oldies.

Good morning and how are you this Friday?
Where has this week gone?
This working more hours at work with my other half away is keeping me busy and away from my crafting.  I had a day off yesterday, with lots planned and I ended up doing very little, shattered.com.
Christmas is well and truly on route too, lots arriving at work ready for the festive season....no....!
Ho, ho, ho, the joys!

Back to crafting and it's oldie time again as it is Friday.  By now you know the score, I encourage you to join me sharing a previously posted crafty make or something you have not posted before.
It's all for the joy of crafting and a look back, winding down for the coming weekend.
I will visit all who link up below and play along.
Today I thought I'd share my first little crocheted animal.


I used cotton yarn to make this wee chap together with google eyes, a wee bit of matching ribbon and a charm. 
This chap was my introduction to toys, not that I have made that many more of them since. 

That's all from me today, another early shift in work for me tomorrow.  Enjoy your weekend folks, may you have lots of fun crafting and thank you again for joining me today. 
I do enjoy my wee hop to your blogs to see if you are playing along and what project you have picked.
Catch you again tomorrow.

He's a lovely little chappie. I love that chunky stitch you have used and the colour wool. This is our last day on holiday along the south east coast and after having a glorious week the weather has changed - so I don't mind that we're heading home tomorrow. Took mum for a late holiday after getting over her hip op and she has thoroughly enjoyed it. Hope your day goes well.

What a super little owl with his googly eyes. Looking at your photo I can just image how he feels. So this is where it all began with your animals!

Hope you'll have time to slow down a bit soon. The weather has changed here today. The sun has gone and it's pouring with rain. Enjoy your weekend. Barbxx

Hi Erika,
oh I do love your owl so much he is gorgeous.
Your work on him is excellent.
I need one of those. LOL because as you know I love owls, but sadly I can't read the patterns anymore.
I am much better following one someone has already made now.
Have a wonderul weekend even if you do have to work.
Lots of crafty love. Jenny L.
