I was on Alan Dart's website (love his patterns) and I found a set of patterns for Cinderella Panto-Mice. I had brought a collection of story books by Miles Kelly for my Niece's Christmas present and it included Cinderella so I then decided to knit the characters, in colours to match the book, the idea being that she can then play along with the story. It was a great way to use up all those leftover wools too. I adapted the patterns to have human faces rather than those of the mice so I could make the characters look like the book and so I could match Cinderella to look more like my niece (role models are important to little girls). I've also done the Three Little Pigs for her birthday (again, to match the outfits in the book) and if she plays with them then I'll have a go at the other story books too.
