I enjoy crocheting stuffies. I have them all over the place even though no little kids live here. These came from the book, "Edward's Menagerie," by Kerry Lord. There are 40 animals in the book. I have made 4 of them so far. I did the bunny first. I love how he turned out. Next I did the cat. I think his ears are a little too big, but he's okay. Then came the polar bear. The eyes are uneven, but that's my fault. My favorite, so far, is the sheep. His loopy fleece alone took as long as all the rest of him put together. I will be making more animals out of this book, but I'm not sure which one I'll do next.

Breathe and Hope
This is my Breathe and Hope shawl. I wish I knew what the yarns were that I used. I know it was something in my stash and it was fingering weight yarn. Two different yarns; one solid and one variegated. The pattern is by Casapinka and is available on Ravalry. This was one of my 2020 projects. It was the first project my knitting group did when we started meeting again. I think we each had to start over a couple of times but we got through it.

Heidi Bears
I love Heidi Bears patterns. They can be found on Revelry. The first pattern I got was Fatty Lumpkin the Brave African Flower Pony. I made 6 all together. 3 for me and 3 that I sold. The 3 I kept are different sizes. One with size 10 crochet thread, one with size 3 crochet thread, and one with worsted weight yarn. The next pattern I got was for Happy pot a us The Happy Hippo. So far I have made one with size 10 crochet thread and one with size 3 thread. I am working on one with worsted weight yarn.

Crocheted Spring Wreath
I got the foam wreath at Dollar Tree. The green yarn is Vanna's.
I crocheted a rectangle long enough and wide enough to go all the way around but still fit snug.
I sew the ends together and sewed it onto the wreath with the seam in the back.
I had a whole pile of 6-petal flowers already made. I just needed to sew buttons to the centers.
Pinned all the flowers on until I was satisfied then thought about other little things I already had that I could put on: the bird, the butterflies, and the lady bug buttons.
Made a chain of dark green and glued everything with the hot glue gun and done. This was inspired by repeatcrafterme.com and her crocheted spring wreath.
