Knuffle Kid is in stock

Knuffle Kid has made it into store and online! The colour is so refreshing - lots of bright orange and vibrant red to to team with the Irish tweed Julian Vest and reversible Moonface Cape (pictured left to right). Be sure to make it in as I only have one of each size for every style.

Chunky Knits for the Head


I have found the most devine crocheted and knitted hats and beanies for boys and girls - aged 1 to 6 for the shop this Autumn/Winter. They come in organic cotton yarns and merino wool. I can't contain my excitement - I've even had to order one for myself. I am a hat kind of chick. I love a good slouchy knitted stylish beanie. The best way to wear them is to add one of Prim & Pretty's beautiful felted mohair brooches to the brim. I have a nice range in the shop and a few online. They're pricy at $49, but you need to appreciate that they are mohair, knitted, felted, layered then a button covered and finished into this beautiful product. They are worth the investment. Otherwise consider them for a special girlfriend or mother that has a Winter birthday!



Back to those hats. A snap shot of 2 of the 6 styles that will be coming into MissChief Maker in April 2010. They will all be one-of-a-kind colourways for each style so you'll have to get in quick. I have some gorgeous handmade girls cord dresses and denim pinafores and boys locally hand knitted vests that will look fantastic with these special pieces. They won't be online so you'll have to make your way into the retail store in Pialligo....see you soon. x

Autumn/Winter 2010

Did somebody say Winter?! It's incredibly hard to be thinking about Winter when it's 39 degrees! Quite the contrary, i've really been nutting out the range for Autumn/Winter 2010 and enjoying every minute of it. I have focused on pulling together a collection from several suppliers, from Victoria, Queensland and Western Australia as well as our clever Canberra counterparts. The colourways are exciting and fresh for 2010 for the boys and soft but rich for the girls.

KnuffleKid, a favourite supplier of mine of really funky, vintage inspired, hand printed fabrics that are really different to the 'norm'. Some will love the style, and I am sure there will be some out there that won't. I love it. We took this photo of little Isabella looking oh so cute in the KnuffleKid 'prom skirt'. Layered vintage lace skirt, draped with a bold black and cream check. Fully reversible too. It is a fabulous addition to any wardrobe, very versatile, for summer or winter - team it with a pair of black footless tights or leggings in winter with a roll neck jumper or cardi. Summer, it needs a simple tank. The beautiful thing about this skirt is that it has press studs all around the inside so it is fully adjustable and grows with your girl. Isabella is 2, and a 6 year old bought one from the shop last week!

So a sneak peak at the KnuffleKid stock that will be coming into MissChief Maker in March. For the boys, it's fresh. Its bold. It's so cool. I'm not going to show everything - otherwise they'll be no suprises! I am really making a real effort to find some great boys stuff for all those customers that keep on asking "what about the boys?". I'll bring it - they'll just have to come and find it with me at MissChief Maker!

And for the girls, well that's easy.....I have a little misschief maker that looks so gorgeous in KnuffleKid. Look what I'll be dressing her in this winter



Three Little Trees from Queensland has come out with a cracking range for the boys this season. I'll be focusing on the coolest track suit, I don't mean the daggy bottle green fleecy lined type you buy from KMart for $9.95, but a trackie that you're little Chief would be proud to wear out. As well as some fantastic printed long sleeve tees. They're winter range is all still hush hush, so I won't tell yet!


BrusselSprouts is busy knitting and sewing this year. I missed out last year, there was no stock left when I got around to ordering so I've saved the good stuff for this year, and I've made it. Just. To order some devine handmade, handknitted, hand crocheted pieces from Victoria Crisp's label BrusselSprouts. One of my favourite pieces that I missed out on last year is back for 2010, the woolleen Jacket. I'm going to have it available in 2 colours and will be in store in March. Victoria has also created some amazing dresses this year which MissChief Maker customers are going to LOVE!

Here's to thinking about rugging up.....
