HAPPY EASTER! HAPPY SPRING!
HAPPY EASTER! HAPPY SPRING!
Here's a preview of the peeps I made for Easter ... I'll put up more shots of them soon. I had such fun making these limbless peeps! And I had some wonderful yarn to play with, sent to me by my friend, Romana, of YarnCloud Yarns (www.yarncloud.com)! The textures and colors were exciting and fun! I loved putting together the various color schemes for each of the basket/peep sets.
More about this soon... (well, we
can hope, can't we?)

My mom tried for years to teach me how to crochet, and it finally "clicked" about 6 months ago. I've been crocheting like a fool since, but it's so hard on my wrists. I taught myself to knit (knittinghelp.com was so great compared to the book I was using) and quickly making progress.
My first real project (after knitting a thousand "scarves") is a blanket for my sister in law, who I found out is about 2 months pregnant. It isn't without its mistakes, but I figure my new niece or nephew won't mind too much. I'm slowly amassing a TON of knitting stuff - much more than the crocheting supplies that I have. It's so much fun and a nice way to wind down after working all day.
Thanks for the recommendations on the yarn! I can't wait to see what you come up with next :D
