Aw, he reminds me a bit of Clifford. Love him!
And yes, isn't it funny how craft stores have the ability to literally suck the cash out of our pocketbooks?
I blame it on my alter ego who can never ever have enough ribbon or yarn or fabric or paper or...you get the idea. Great stuff you came home with though and Kenneth is adorable.
I'm glad I'm not the only one! I'm usually shouting to my husband "I'll be back in just a minute" as I'm walking into the craft store.....an hour later he's in there trying to find me. Kenneth is ADORABLE!! I love that pink and orange-y ribbon!
Kenneth is wonderful - did you use a pattern or make it up as you went. I'm desperate to get the hang of crochet, just got to make some of these cute creatures.
oooooo, that pink/orange/yellow sparkly fiber is to DIE FOR!!! Really, it is one of the prettiest I've seen! Who could resist it??? I don't blame you a bit.... ;-)
I can confidently diagnose frivolitis, because I tend to have it myself. At least you got the white cotton too - it's worse when you get home and realise you have a dozen pretty skirts for summer and STILL no black shoes...
Kenneth is a little sweetie - I like his shy little hunched shoulders.
Kenneth is wonderful- so much personality! Getting sidetracked while shopping happens to me too- always need to have an open mind (and open wallet) when entering the fabric store :-) Who knows what fantastic item will inspire me next!
My friend Kat went to Waitrose for a loaf of bread on Thursday, and came out with £45 worth of groceries. Must be some kinda virus that makes us do things like this.
i think i do this once a week--the grocery store, fabric store, pharmacy...it always happens to me! But i must say you did come home with some great extras!
kenneth is adorable. i want to pinch his little tummy!
"It followed me home. Can I keep it?" Not just fr stray pups anymore! Kenneth and the giant pirate duck from your last post are both so adorable! I want to squeeze Kenneth! The pirate duck's dagger is the best! I love the little details you add!
awww, what a little cutie-pie. Something about him looks so bashful to me.

He is soooo cute!

perhaps it as an attack of the "multiple personality?" :)
Good loot though and Kenneth is a precious little fella...

Glad to see I'm not the only one who has that sort of shopping experience. Kenneth is a real cutie pie!

Kenneth made me smile, which is exactly what I needed today.
Enjoy your goodies!
xxoo

Haha, this is like me shopping ANYWHERE! By the way, I missed mentioning how much I LOVED your little pirate ducky. So cute!
Posted by: Kim | April 12, 2006 at 08:29 PM
Story of my life.
Seriously, shops should stop carrying so much cute stuff.
Posted by: capello | April 12, 2006 at 09:05 PM
Absolutely love this little guy! I want!
Posted by: Jessica Hood | April 12, 2006 at 10:00 PM
ha ha, it sounds familiar...
Very cute Kenneth though!
Posted by: Annika Sandin | April 12, 2006 at 11:18 PM
Oh lord, we must NEVER go shopping together!
And Kenneth is the cutest! Or as my husband has just declared "Kenneth rocks!"
Posted by: manda | April 12, 2006 at 11:32 PM
I love those shopping trips. Is that KSH in Blushes? Mmm my favourite.
Posted by: Kate | April 12, 2006 at 11:57 PM
I could save myself a lot of money if I could figure out how that happens.
Kenneth is adorable!
Posted by: mary | April 13, 2006 at 12:37 AM
I love you Kenneth...
Posted by: *jenny | April 13, 2006 at 12:57 AM
That happens to me all the time at the store! Kenneth is a cutey-pie. Can't wait to see what you do with the new stuff.
Posted by: Rose | April 13, 2006 at 01:33 AM

I know . . .I have the same problem!! Things just creep up into my cart!! :)

I love the pink yarns, so pretty!
Posted by: ivy | April 13, 2006 at 10:06 AM
Kenneth is gorgeous, he looks like a great little pal ;)

heart-crushingly cute!!!

lol
that's the real shopping :P
So cute and expressive "toy".
Posted by: ana margarida | April 13, 2006 at 02:35 PM
It is absolutely amazing when plain white thread turns into frothy pink yarn all by itself, no? That NEVER happens for me!
Posted by: Alicia P. | April 13, 2006 at 04:53 PM
That happens to me. It is physically impossible for me to go to the fabric (and yarn) store and not spend $100.
Kenneth is a dear. I love his little striped jumper!
Posted by: Mrs. Ricardo | April 13, 2006 at 07:00 PM
that always happens to me. go in for some thread, come out with a bag full of crap. good crap, though. i love kenneth.
Posted by: lisa | April 13, 2006 at 07:22 PM
He is very cute! I love his facial expression, unique!
Posted by: Carmen | April 13, 2006 at 07:53 PM
too cute! looks like he has a little belly!
Posted by: shoofly | April 13, 2006 at 11:14 PM
He is so lovable!
Posted by: Michelle | April 14, 2006 at 12:01 AM
You have to watch that yarn - they can be naughty like that and just leap into your shopping bag...
Posted by: Alison | April 14, 2006 at 12:36 AM
funny how that always seems to happen! another adorable bear!!!
Posted by: jenn | April 14, 2006 at 01:34 PM
It's amazing how things will just jump into your basket and insist on being brought home!

Posted by: Marci | April 15, 2006 at 12:36 PM
Kenneth looks very pensive and rather huggable.
Posted by: Dee | April 16, 2006 at 04:22 PM
Aw, Kenneth is so sweet! It's that pot belly of his, looks like it needs a good rub.
