I keep trying real hard to coax Spring weather
into my little corner of the world.
Everything I make looks like I'm on a
definite Spring Fling!
When I saw this sweet crocheted amigurumi hat pincushion
in the latest Simply Crochet issue I knew I would have to
give it a go :-)
Isn't it too darn cute?!!
Even its backside is pretty.
And it's nice for those of us who play with
yarn because it holds anything
from regular pins and needles
to darning needles.
Of course I have also had my hands in a few
more Springtime baby hats...
First a Flop Eared Bunny of my own design.
Flaunting a fluffy tail :-)
And a precious wee lamb hat.
I tweaked the original pattern here and there but only a very little.
The pattern was written by
I actually purchased it from Craftsy.
I have been like a chicken
{notice I didn't say "Spring chicken"}
without a head lately
with so much yarn flying left and right.
I've been working at stocking my Etsy Shop,
taking care of some local orders,
teaching more knitting and crochet lessons
than I usually do this time of year
plus....
getting ready for
babies.
As it turns out
Both
of my daughters are expecting them!!!
Woo ~ Hoo !!! :-)))
Also, my sister is going to be Grammy for the first time.
In May I will have a grandson,
in August my sister will have a grandbaby
&
in September I will have another grandbaby.
We are still waiting to find out what the other two babes are.
I will get back to you as soon as I know.
After this never ending Winter
it's sure going to be a
glorious Spring & Summer around here :-)))
More grandbabies! How exciting Danette! Next year they can wear those fabulous bunny hats for Easter. Hugs!

DeleteThe little hats are adorable. Spring is a little slow getting here to Texas. Not one sign of Spring in my yard. I see a few green things trying to pop up but we need more rain.

Hi Danette,
ReplyDeleteLove the baby hats, cute ears! I always worry when one
person tells me they're expecting....suddenly heaps of
people are expecting!! lol. Great to knit or crochet for
friends and family though.
Cheers, Anita.
You are so right Anita!!!
DeleteIt really must be in the water or the air!
I sure was surprised when BOTH of my girls came up that way at the same time. One was trying we knew, but the other was pursuing adoption and Voila'!
