Marcia from Ant Knit made these amazing crocheted animals. We made a trade. I gave her a couple boxes of THESE in return. I know, I got the better end of the deal. I still owe her.
My oldest girl requested a giraffe. If you ask me this is just amazing. Seriously it's the cutest thing. She hasn't put it down in two days.
This shark was for my son.
A whale for Kate. I love the water spouting.
And a chick for the baby.
I've had them since January but decided to wait for Easter to give them out. I was surprised at how excited my kids were over them. Up against a basket of candy and toys, my kids treasured these most. They kept talking about how special they were and how much work had gone into making them. I was one proud mama that my kids recognized and preferred handmade.
Those are super cute!
ReplyDeleteMy mouth was grateful for the chocolate even if my hips weren't! I am forever in Lydia's debt for asking for the giraffe because he has become one of my most favorite and also most loved by others. :)
ReplyDeleteCUTE!!!! I LOVE the giraffe! How adorable!
ReplyDeleteMarcia is AMAZING, even if she won't admit to it! Ha ha! You can't hurt me from the blog of another, Marcia! You are the best "creator" I know!

These are so sweet!
ReplyDeleteThose are SO cute. I am feeling guilty now, I haven't crocheted anything for my kids in ages. I'm sure they'd appreciate them now more than they did when they were 2 and a baby and I was actually making stuff for them.
ReplyDeleteThose are simply adorable!!!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE the giraffe! How adorable!
