knitting

2020 will forever be known as the year of the crafties. Seriously, even those who don't craft turned to crafting at some point in 2020. Whether that craft be painting, knitting, or baking bread (yes, baking is a craft), 2020 was the year that all human beings became so boring with existence that we turned to anything we could to make us feel again. 

And crafts really did come through for us in 2020, it gave us a feeling of accomplishment which we all needed. And there's no crafting include that doesn't include animals wreaking havoc, or crafts, especially for animals. And if you did do crafts that didn't include animals... well, let's just say it didn't make our list. 

We know that with the New Year comes new expectations but try to keep the crafties alive! 

Spread the word -- we all can help in more ways than one! 

With the Australian fires claiming nearly half a million animal lives, there are thousands (if not millions) more that are injured and in need of certain suppliers from those who sew!

Pouches, koala mittens, bat wraps and carry bags -- the provided patterns listed below are the items that Australia is in dire need of!  

If you were looking to help the animals in need and didn't know how -- this is your chance! 

Etsy artist RainbowLuvPets has a very specific, and adorable, niche, knitting sweater sleeves for snakes! There are also tiny knitted hats for available but we can't get over just how cute and cozy these snakes look in those sweater sleeves! You can see more items at the Etsy shop!

We love cute animals, but sweaters on a snake really hits the spot. Check out some more pics of snakes here. 

Shed Happens: all that dog hair can be something beautiful. But would you wear a sweater made out of your dog's hair? 

Growing up with Labradors and shepherds, Jeannie Sanke always remembered all the hair that was tossed in the trash or that wafted away. After learning to knit at the age of 5, she knew she will figure out something to do with all that dog hair someday. Today she is the owner of KnitYourDog website with 18-months waiting list of costumers.  

This generosity makes our hearts as warm as a kitten in a knitted blanket.
