This 36″x36″ square baby blanket is handcrafted by artist, Judy Bretthaur. Her business is called Grandma Sheep Hand Knits because her oldest granddaughter, when learning to talk, referred to her as “the grandma with the sheep”. As her other grandchildren grew up and were allowed to bottle feed the orphaned lambs it was shortened to Grandma Sheep and it stuck.

Knit by hand and featuring a fanciful eyelet edging, this baby blanket is the perfect gift for baby. Choose from Pink, Lavender or Mint Green. It’s made of zarylic fibers and costs $55.00 at ShopTheFrontier.com.

Featured at Shop the Frontier, these funny and adorable Rag Doll Kittens are handmade by artist Linda Harvey at her home-based enterprise, Harvey’s Humbles,  located on the banks of the beautiful Methow River in the Washington North Cascades.

They are made from synthetic acrylic yarns and polyester fiberfill to minimize any possiblity of allergic reaction. Acrylic eyes and noses are on shanks inserted through the fabric and secured with lock washers. No glue is used.
