Happy Friday!


It’s almost the weekend! Time to breathe deep and enjoy whatever you’ve got planned. Of course, if those plans include things like cleaning the house or laundry, I’m pleased to give you an excuse to ignore those for a few minutes while you read this post.  😊

So... anyone who’s been following my Facebook (ahem, if not, check it out!) facebook.com/betsysboutiqueknits will know that I’ve been trying out some new products lately. I’ve always enjoyed experimenting with new patterns, but these days I’m branching out beyond my animal blankies and stuffed animals and dolls. My fingers have been busy knitting shawls, hats and scarves, and I’ve just listed a baby blanket for purchase! It’s a limited time offer, but I’ve extended the purchase deadline till Monday, Aug 27th.




It’s as soft and squishy and light as it looks. There’s only one available to purchase too, so pick it up before someone else does. Contact me for the cost.

Oh, and I’ve got plans for more new products, so keep an eye out! I’m brainstorming Christmas themes right now, and let’s just say that there might be a table runner in the works... Let me know if you’d be interested in seeing that (or any other projects) by leaving a comment here or on Facebook

I hope your weekend is full of smiles, blessings, and happy moments. If you know anyone who would be interested in this blog, please share this with them!

Blankie twins


Never done a grey bunny on a blankie before!

There are so many variations!

Another gorgeous shawl!

Shawls DO take longer than toys to make, and appeal to a different audience.
I love that there are SO many patterns available!
Having done less than 10 of them so far, I am having fun finding patterns and experimenting with them!

This pattern was called Two Sisters, and was designed without tassels.


However, the recipient LOVES tassels, so here they are!

This shawl was VERY cosy! The pattern was so simple, and it looks magnificent!
