Joy of knitting

Each animal is hand knitted. Choose your favorite and let me know what color clothing you prefer. I can also make whimsical ones like the blue bunny! 

the animals' bodies are knitted with 100% merino wool and stuffed with pure lambs wool and fiberfill.

I  also take inspiration from children's books to create an animal to go with it.

Each animal is hand knitted and hand stitched together. Have been knitting for 20 years and making these treasures for several years. Each animal takes 12-14 hours to complete and have their own individual personality. 

My inspiration were my 8 grandchildren.  The first year I made the girls dolls and animals for the boys. I then branched out to make animals for friends' children and grandchildren  thus Betsy's Handknits was born!

To date have animals all over the United States, London and Rome as well.
