Feelin the Love

I've made it my goal to complete a TON of crochet project this year. I am trying to crochet projects before the holiday arrives, and I managed to succeed with Valentine's Day! (I also have some post-Christmas projects that I haven't blogged, so that will be fun later lol).

 

First up, the Love Bunny. The pattern suggested two, and it really was easy enough that I could have done it, but this guy is flying solo. He's off to my secret sister in my fire wife group. Adorable, right? Also, I realized that I overprocessed the photo and you can't see the stitch definition. Fail. Click on over to the original post for better pictures.

 

Next up is the Heart Potholder. I have never crocheted a potholder before, and I am still a bit wary to use this guy. But it's thick. So that's promising, right?

 

Lastly, want to see what it looks like when I try to take a picture? Complete chaos behind the scenes! (also, don't be like me and take pictures at 10 pm. Take them with natural light. Unless you have a day job and forget on weekends. Then you are stuck with 10 pm pictures).

Apr 10: Easter Bunnies - COMPLETED

Pattern #100: Easter Bunny

Wow. 100 patterns. That's crazy! And I could not decide which bunny to use for my last Easter pattern, so I am posting 2! I can do that - it's my blog! hahaha  The second bunny is from Very Berry Handmade.

(I will probably make the ears a bit smaller. Those are just too big for me! But wouldn't this be cute as a gift for a new baby??)

Updated 10/9/2011:  I finished both bunnies this weekend.  The first looks really ugly to me. (I actually ended up taking him apart and salvaging the eyes).  The second, super cute.  Not how I first imagined, right?  Yeah, well.  That's just life!  I had the body and head and arms of the second bunny finished a long time ago.  I finished up the legs and ears and attaching this evening.  It all went together pretty quick.  I am rather disappointed that I put this off from April to October.  No fun.  I really like the second bunny though, it is adorable!  Fits perfectly in the palm of my hand!

Augh! How could I have forgotten to post today's pattern until now? oh well. It's here now! This would be perfect for a child's first Easter. I mean, how adorable would your little one look holding this basket??

How cute is this little guy? I love his ears... And the tail?? Oh it's killing me! too stinking cute!

Mine is definitely not as cute as Lion Brand's, but here is my attempt:

Feb 12: Love Bunnies - COMPLETED

Pattern #43: Love Bunnies

How cute are these 2 little bunnies? Erika over at Cast on Erika  (her blog is now private, but the pattern is still on ravelry, yay!) made them. What an adorable pair. I bet any little girl would love these!

January 17, 2014:  I made this guy in an evening for my fire fighter wife rescue pack (it's basically like a secret santa in my fire wives group). It was Valentine's themed and I really wanted to crochet something. I thought this was adorable, and I hope my secret sister thinks so too!

I tweaked the pattern a bit so I worked it all in one piece. Well, the ears were two pieces, but the body and head was one. Also, I did not overprocess the picture as it looks below. It looked great on my phone. Technology fail.
