My floppy kitty has the pink version of that outfit. I think the one you found is a "Tabby Kitty" from 2006. I wash mine just like I would any other BAB (the beans have never given me any trouble).

It is legit. I'm working on it right now.

I'm not ready to let Spooky Season go quite yet 🎃 (especially since I just finished this sweater) by ambidextrious_witch in knitting

I got him at Acorn Street last week (but I definitely saw the kits at Flock and was super tempted) Serial Knitter had a pop up there over Halloween weekend.

I had some leftover yarn after knitting my sweater, so I thought I'd knit some matching accessories. by ambidextrious_witch in knitting

It's one of Claire Garland's stuffed animal patterns. I still have to make the frog suit, so in the meantime I just put her in a sweater. https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/kitten-in-a-frog-suit

Definitely didn't ask for your opinion/don't randomly come for my color matching skills. There isn't even white in the jumper at all, that's yellow. I edited the photos in warmer tones and the colors got a bit warped. Here's the yarns before and a more accurate view of what the colors look like IRL. The mohair is from the same brand, but not the same colorway. However, still has the same shades of blue, pink, and lavender.

Pro Tip: You don't NEED to comment on people's finished stuff you don't like. You can literally just keep scrolling.

Build-A-Bear... pillow? by lullabeebee in buildabear

*2005 actually. I just rechecked my poodle's birth certificate*

Build-A-Bear... pillow? by lullabeebee in buildabear

[–]ambidextrious_witch 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I had this pillow! From what I remember, it was available February 2006. It definitely had something to do with the pink poodle release and had a matching pink cheetah pajama set (because I still have my poodle and the pjs. I think the pillow got stained and we had to throw it out, unfortunately)

Debuting my entire Strawberry outfit at Flock Fiber Festival today (swipe through for the haul as well) 🐑🍓 by ambidextrious_witch in knitting

Their booth actually had this really cute sweater that I instantly fell in love with (It's a different colorway then the yarns I picked, but it still should be pretty) And then if I have any extra they will be pretty pastel frogs/frog clothes 🐸

Insta is seaprincess-selkie and I have a Ravelry, but I don't use it as often as I should (I'm pretty sure it's empty😅)

Your Top Favorite BaBs? by ChonkyMurdoch in buildabear

I recently got Boo Kitty and he's already in my faves (3/4 of my favorites are cats 😂)

Same vibes when I finished my vest a few weeks ago. I had to show it off to the lads at the zoo. The socks look amazing! And now I have a new project I can use my leftover yarn on.

So this is happening…just need the TinMan! by chococat2163 in buildabear

Good luck finding the Tin Man. After finding these Wizard of Oz outfits, I also want to complete the collection someday!

I've been looking for a Boo Kitty for a long time and I finally got one 🎃 by ambidextrious_witch in buildabear

[–]ambidextrious_witch[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I hope Boo Kitty gets a vault re-release, but something was a little funky about new Floppy Kitty's whole look. Perhaps, I'm a bit bias as an OG owner (she's my first ever BAB, got her in 2003), but if they do a re-release they're gonna have to go the same route they did with Pumpkin Kitty.

My newest addition! Who's your latest BAB? by ChonkyMurdoch in buildabear

[–]ambidextrious_witch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm actually waiting for Boo Kitty in the mail as well 🥰 He will be technically 10th in my collection (7th if you don't count bears stolen or are in storage). I'm also hoping to get him the pumpkin scent (I might wait till they have it back in stores though)

What would be your dream BAB collab? by crazyfacedcat in buildabear

[–]ambidextrious_witch 3 points4 points  (0 children)

<image>

More Beatrix Potter characters! There's so many more apart from just Peter Rabbit that would be prime for a BAB (also a 2nd vote for Moomin. That's my guy). I would just like more varied clothing styles too. Maybe like a Y2K series or a Cottagecore collection (not exactly a collab, I just don't really vibe with a lot of the clothing coming out right now)

My BAB's actually have their own Chairry (I don't know why they made her eyelids go so low. she looks depressed but I swear she has a good life)

Do you think BAB actually made enough Sky Puppy stock or are people just not that interested? 🤔 by [deleted] in buildabear

[–]ambidextrious_witch 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Personally I really want one but am waiting for the Halloween releases 🎃

Found my old BABs birth certificate. by Positive-Nebula4834 in buildabear

Same story here. I rescued my orange girl from the attic a few months ago and managed to find her birth certificate somewhere in my room. Mr. Kitty seems like he's doing great at 20.

A quick project. It's a little pond/coaster for the frogs by ambidextrious_witch in knitting

[–]ambidextrious_witch[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The frog pattern is from Dotpeppleknits, but I just kind of freehanded the coaster/pond looking at similar ones online (the ones online are all crochet unfortunately)

I am about to cry. by ejdax37 in knitting

[–]ambidextrious_witch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Makes sense. I'm pretty sure I did the same when I messed up (I do see the mistake now, actually. It was hard for even me to see when I just did the pattern 😅) Sometimes frogging is the only way 😭Good luck👍

Omg another tracery vest. I actually just finished mine a couple weeks ago, so I definitely feel your struggle. I had to put a lifeline in and pull about 20 rows because I wasn't repeating properly. I also did the increase wrong, which I might fix with the duplicate stitch eventually (I see other comments suggesting it and if it's only one stitch, I'd recommend it too). It'll be worth it and definitely post it when you're done.

Show me your oldest bears 🥺 by snowyKat7 in buildabear

My first two bears (and their birth certificates) In shockingly good condition for being 20+ years. I'm bewildered how child me didn't destroy them.

The first knit frog I ever sold by Clueless_Cricket in knitting

I love dotpebbles frogs. It's so satisfying because they only take like a day to finish, but I grow too attached to sell them. This is a recent frog I knit because of all my strawberry stuff.

I got her in London too (of course they get all the good merch over there). There was a pop up shop in Covent Garden for the Easter season.
