WiSh - Op Shop Treasure - Blogtoberfest Day 23

This is the WiSh (why i shop where i shop) post I was going to do the other day

before I got carried away shooting crocheted doilies.

 These knitted temptresses were obviously meant to be mine.
I resisted them at first,
then finding myself in the vicinity of the shop a few days later,
I was relieved to see them still sitting on the same shelf I'd left them on.

Advertised as 'finger puppets' 

I strongly suspect they're actually egg warmers

but I can't bring myself to snip the string that binds them....just yet.

 

Without wanting to ruin the surprise & to be honest I'm not sure I'll be able to part with any
but maybe perhaps one will end up traveling in the Christmas parcel
to my Op Shop Swap Partner.

I can't resist old patterns and have suitcases full of them.
 I pull them out every now & then to share with students or use myself.

I didn't realise how much I wanted a baked dough wall plaque 

   until I saw this sweetheart the other day...

'Lulu' will forever remind me of the one my sister-in-law created a few years before her death,

which hangs proudly in her mums bathroom.

The tablecloth pants, if they remain mine, will most likely become a skirt.

They're obviously an indie designers creation 

which are very well made & look to be brand new

however I can't find any information about the label
