Crochet baby gift

A co-worker had her baby boy about a week and a half ago.
I crocheted this for them.

Happy February!

Happy to be home!
Happy to be loved~
Happy to be able to love others!
Happy to realise all that is good in my life!
Happy love month to all!

Gobble! Gobble!

I just finished crocheting 'Tom Turkey'.
I'm making six more Tom's before I fly out on the 20th of this month too.
Must make six more pumpkins and six more fall coloured bowls before the 20th as well.
These are such fun and quick patterns to make, I'm hoping to get them done early enough.
My hope is to make a pair of fingerless gloves and a matching hat before I fly to D.C.
Busy, busy, busy :)

Happy creating.

Busy hands...runny nose!

I've been home sick for the past week!
Not a pleasant place to be either.
Happily I was able to do a wee bit of crocheting.
These are just a few of the things I've made.

ATC fun...

Just a few ATC's made, for recent swaps.
One more week till Halloween!

Crocheted Teddy Bear

Happy almost friday!
I am so looking
forward to the weekend, aren't you?

I'm nearly done with my very first Amigurumi Teddy Bear.
This is as much as I've done as of today.

And guess what I stumbled upon, whilst I prodded and poked around my
massive library...crochet magazines from nearly 22 years ago!
This one pictured is from 1992. The pictures in it are seriously out dated, but
the patterns can be worked to a little more modern, posh appeal.

I even found two knitting leaflets from 1945. I cannot wait to start creating something
delightful from them.

But in the meantime, here I sit, sipping my tea, planning a few halloween ATC creations.

Only 23 more days till Halloween!!!

Autumn projects

Good morning everyone.
It is just wonderful to wake to the coolness of air.
After such a long spell of hot weather, this autumn day is a very welcomed change.

With the cool weather on the rise, I thought it best to bring together
all of my crochet/knitting projects.

My oh my, I have a few started.
Well I have nearly finished the baby blanket for a workmate (pastel colours).
I just have the trim to add.

I'm still working on the shawl and socks. (Green projects from previous post).
And I've got the blanket for my son (blue green and yellow Red Heart yarn) colour name, Laddie.

The blue scarf for a friend, and the 'practice' knit, that i've been working on for YEARS...it's a project I started with my Nana, who has been gone now, over 20 plus years. Simple stitches, just mindless knit. Then I hand stitch the 'scarf liKe' rows together to make a king size blanket. I seldom work on it, I must finish someday :)

And my newest project, Amigurumi.
With all the wee scraps I have, I am looking forward to creating a few cuties from my book.

Well, I must dash for now. So much to do.
Happy autumn.

Hugs,
Bairbre Aine
