BBB is 3 months old today!

Yay for BBB, AKA Baby Benjamin Bunny.  Pretty soon he'll outgrow the Bunny part.  Well, maybe not in the near future.  He's still a very little guy!

Happy 3 month birthday, little cutie patootie! 

By the way, the quilt he's on in the last pic, was made by moi.  Nuts and Bolts is the name.

Do you love llamas with their long eyelashes?  I do, too.  So here's a cutie patootie small project bag featuring those adorable critters.

And because you need to see this, here's the Llama Llama Duck Song.  

Now doesn't that make you happy? 

Where?  Etsy, of course.

Baby Benjamin Bunny

Almost 3 months old!  He smiles, coos, flaps, kicks, recognizes his parents and sister, and is coming along quite nicely.  He's beyond delicious.  Well I think so, but then I'm a gramma.

Flowerpot

Spring will be here.  It will be here.  Promise.  Enough of the snow and winter.  So, to celebrate, I made a little project bag, just perfect for a couple of skeins of sock yarn, needles, etc, etc.  

Last two pics show the lining. 

So now I'm thinking that maybe I should make a bag with the top trim as the main exterior fabric.  After I do the llama llama bag.  That's next in the queue.  No pics, 'cause there's nothing to see.

Where?

Etsy, of course!

Chickie Bag

Chickie Bag!  Goofy, dotty, and stripy chickens with a few daisies thrown in.  Is this not adorable? I love chickens.  Chicken fabric, chicken jokes, chicken dinners.  Cluck, cluck, cluck.

And on a non-Chickie note, here's one of my knitting projects.

What's this going to be?  You'll see.  It's a surprise.

I only frogged it 4 times.  3 times because I didn't like the size and then a fourth time because I was unhappy with how the squares came together.

I frog, tink, unpick because I am. A knitter, crocheter, and quilter.  Undoing is my life.

It's Here! The Annual Spring Poem.

Guess what today is!  Yep, the first day of spring. Time for the Annual Spring Poem

High up, over the tops
Of the feathery grasses, the grasshoppers hop.
They won't eat their suppers,
They will not obey
Their grasshopper mothers and fathers who say:
"Listen my children, this must be stopped.
Now is the time your last hop should be hopped.
So come eat your suppers and go to your beds."
But the little grasshoppers just shake their green heads.
"No, no," the naughty ones say.

"All we have time to do now is to play.

If we are hungry we'll nip at a fly,
Or nibble a blueberry as we go by.
But not now. Now we must hop.
And no one, but no one can make us stop."

Bag Lady

I love project bags.  I can never have too many of them, either.  I swear my knitting WIPs exist so I can make more project bags.  So take a peak at my latest two bags, both on sale in my Etsy shop.

 This one is my Batik medium project bag, and it easily holds 4 skeins of sock yarn!

This one is Tea Party Small Project Bag, and it holds 2 skeins of sock yarn.

I cut out another medium one this morning.  This is a disease.
