Valentine's pressies for my Darling Hub
For Valentine's Day and for Easter, I made limbless wee ami's and baskets for them. Here's Peter Pickle Peep, the one I made for my Hub for Valentine's Day (yes, I'm very slow to post.... I still don't have the rest of the Easter ones uploaded yet!) And Next to the basket is....
Two Peas in a Pod
We always say that we’re like two peas in a pod, and I’ve wanted to make a set for my Hub for ages! Finally remembered to do it. Simple simple… two little green balls with eyes and mouths, and for the pod, I simply knitted a leaf shape and it obligingly curled all by itself. :o)
And a bigger pic of the Peep in Basket and out of the basket
Making limbless wee peeps for my DH’s Valentine’s gift, and for Easter gifts has been such fun (except for the exhaustion of making so MANY)! And a break from some of the more complicated one’s I’ve been making! :o)
I made lots of baskets for peeps for Easter, with different yarns, mostly from www.yarncloud.com. Lots of different colors and textures! And this one for my Hub’s Valentine’s peep as well. It was lovely to work with all of this variety! Really fed my addiction! :o) The Heart is made the same as my “Unbroken Heart” (made all in one piece with no break in yarn), in red mystery yarn, and tied onto the basket.
I'll post more of the Easter peeps and baskets soon. :o)
As always, you can see more of my ami's at http://www.flickr.com/knittycat or on ravelry (I'm theknittycat there too).
