KittyAllen products

KittyAllen is the brand name for the handmade folk art I sell through shops and galleries. KittyAllen’s vibe is small, fun and happy with an emphasis on color, texture and creating a sense of comfort.  The rough-edged aesthetic of the rag baskets, Knitagains and folk dolls are meant to invite a hands-on experience, so feel free to reach out and squeeze!

Knitagains

Knitagains are plush dolls, animals and monsters made from recycled knit sweaters and t-shirts. Once they were knitwear.  Now they are “knit again”. Each squeezy creature is cut, assembled, stuffed with poly fiberfill, embellished and embroidered by hand. Some models are weighted with polybeads to give them a satisfying beanbag-like heft. Knitagains are KittyAllen’s most popular product. They come in a variety of sizes with larger pieces having a greater complexity and more detailed embellishment.  KittyAllen Knitagains have been recognized by the Kentucky Arts Council as an official “Kentucky Crafted” product and are sold in fine shops and galleries around the country.

Rag Baskets

Rag Baskets are hand-wrapped cotton bowls made out of strips of  ripped quilting cotton wrapped around cotton rope.  No sewing or glue is used – just fabric, rope, two hands and a stick.  The result is a rustic, sturdy but flexible multi-purpose bowl.  They come in many colors, shapes and sizes.
