The first time I came across this little gem I just knew I had to knit it. (And in case you're like me and you feel that woodland urge to create toadstools, here's the pattern. Have at it.) This is actually not for Evie although I probably should make her one. She's full throttle into the grabbing, shaking, gumming, exploring phase. Rather, it's a welcome to the world gift for baby Wilder, the 4th son of one of my blog friends Laurel. You have to see the picture she posted of her new little nugget. He's breathtaking.
The genius of this pattern is that you can use up all those little bits of yarn form other projects and it only enhances the colorful fun of the finished toy. Into this particular mushroom went a little of the alphabet blanket, some stuffed bunny, and a pinch of baptismal dress. Positively scrumptious. And the rattler inside? A cat toy. Didn't I tell you it was genius?

What a sweet surprise to find this precious rattle in the mail today. I love handmade gifts so much and this little rattle will be well loved. Thank you so much for your thoughtfulness. A proper thank you is in the mail, but I wanted to tell you here too. It is absolutely lovely.
