After making zipper-mouth monsters for the Clare and Stella last week I thought I’d better make one for me.

This time I added some crocheted trim courtesy of an old doily (oh, I found it hard to take the scissors to it, but after a few snips it became strangely satisfying – now I know why CurlyPops has so much fun with old crocheted tablecloths).  And what does my monster say to everyone who is reading?

Zipper-mouth monster patterns will be officially launched by Jodie at The Stitches & Craft Show in Melbourne from 5th – 9th May.
