One-Two-Three, Blue-Yellow-Red, here come the Primary Colours Slug Tribe!

Primary Colours slug Tribe can be personalised with individual name tags of your choice of names - perhaps friends or family members - just let me know on your order.

Each one in this Set of Three is about 3.5" long, not very tall at all and stuffed with pure wool roving for soft squidginess./squish

My slug history:

Eeeww! Ugh! Why would anyone, especially a gardener like me, spend their precious hours on Earth knitting slugs? Absolutely no idea!

I hate it when I feel that squelchy-squelch under my foot and hear that wet hissy-sigh that means I’ve accidentally stepped on a slug. And how they curl up dying! Aww!

So to make up for those dead ‘uns I offer up to the Slug King/Queen these small tokens of his/her kin.

Now I can’t stop making them! I am in love with them! I think they're adorable! No, I tell a lie, my daughter loves them too – they gang up on her hedgehogs.

When I made my prototype, she whisked it away before he/she (hermaphrodites, remember) had their antennae sewn on and it is still being played with sans-antennae! Apparently it’s some kind of unnatural caterpillar/slug fusion.

Yes, snails are lovely but slugs – ah, these are the voracious thugs, the slithering carnivores of the damp undergrowth, watch out beasties here come the big boys/girls! And yet they are so very vulnerable with no shell like the wimpy snails, they are brave and adventurous!

These things move so slow they can creep right up on you – once I looked down to see a giant leopard slug on my ankle, ARGH! I did the ‘get it off me!’ dance for several minutes that time.

Quirky fun cuddlies for boys and girls.
