Tiny Tiny Birdies coming up!! Animal Miniatures in Crochet

Oh, wow, what fun. But I've got to get stronger reading glasses, ha!
I've been experimenting with designing and making tiny tiny animals, for, I don't know...sitting on your window sill or hanging on your tree (for next year, I guess). Miniatures have a certain appeal, not sure why. They're so doable, so quick and darling. And a family of little bluebirds, they make me happy just sitting on my counter.


I've actually finished this pattern, you can find it on Amazon and actually, I think you can borrow it for free for a while!
Happy Crocheting and Happy New Year!

Ridiculous

I've simply got to dig through these piles and make a workspace which is attractive, instead of one which makes me want to run away. Funny how I'm always my own worst enemy! Have been doing the math on those little hats and trying to make several different sizes, sheesh! Out my window the misty trees on the other side of the pasture are lavender and the trees are lit up with gold, will have to paint!!

If you'd like to look at my fanciful little crochet patterns, they are at susanlinnstudio.etsy.com and my snooty art stuff as always at susankennedy.etsy.com

New Animals Soon....A Mouse and Penguin to Join These

These are the little ones in my animal collection so far. You can see them individually at my etsy store ,

but hopefully I'll have the complete thing up in a few days. Anyone who has helpful hints on felting little object like this, I would love to hear from you. I've been crocheting for 3 decades, but have never felted. Does it work with crochet? Is wet felting or needle felting better? Intriguing, but will have to remain so for a bit.
Here's hoping your yarn has no knots, your cat stays away from your work, and your knuckles stay supple. Supple knuckles? Wow. Sometimes I surprise myself.
