Little Bunny Keychain

Kid 1 is invited to a birthday party and I crocheted a cute little keychain for the birthday kid ^_^

Pattern: Bunny Amigurumi keychain by Mariska Vos-Bolman

Yarn: Schachenmayr Catania Flammé (258)

Hook: 3 mm

Modifications: The embroidered nose has 2 stitches instead of one xD

That was quick and easy and I wanna make at least 2 more for my own kids ^_^

Remember the Coburger Fuchs fluff and the humble beginnings of nålbound socks?

Them socks are finished!

With a so-called Klas Brita Heel!

It's like a finger that you needlebind around!

They are warm, fit my feet really well, and they give me a +5 AC Bonus xD

They are also a little bit scratchy, but that was to be expected from the Coburger Fuchs and I don't mind ^_^

I'm super proud of them 💕💕💕

Maybe I could dye them? With Easter egg colours? Something greenish would be nice... But maybe it's too late for dyeing now?

I don't know, I've never dyed anything and I'm open for advice and suggestions...

My kids bought themselves these cute sleepy plushies and I knit them each a tiny lil blankie:

On Sunday, traveling on the train from south Germany back to the north, I won a game of yarn chicken with the "Study Dragon Tail's Shawl" which I had started in January 2023:

Today, while waiting at the rheumatologist's, I wove in the ends:

And now it just needs a little soak and blocking and it's completely finished! ^_^

I lost the yarn banderole, but it's some merino lace yarn. The hook was a 4 mm hook. It's all just blo hdc and I'm super happy with the resulting squishy texture 💕💕💕

So Maker Faire is coming up, right? And the spinning group is gonna be there. And we need decorations.

And a suggestion was to craft triangles and make a cute bunting/garland thingy. So i took to the grab bag of fiber i had bought for the kids to play with and got this really felted combed top out of it and seperated colours and carded it and then spun some thicc singles on my Nano2:

... and then plied these:

All in one evening! Go me! xD

I'm not a big pink fan, but i love this 💕💕💕

Not sure if that's enough to oslo stitch a triangle, but I can always make some more.

(I can make yarn! and then make something from it! It's so amazing, that whole process! Damn! *happy swearing in awe of humanity's long history of fiber doings and makings*)

Anyway, maybe (maybe!) I can eventually make enough yarn to needlebind, crochet and knit a small triangle (base with 12-13 cm).

Maybe not. I AM having ideas. Spring is putting ideas in my head (and itches in my eyes and nose)..

Not sure if my energy will be able to keep up, so I'll be happy with any idea actually coming to life ^_^

Going by the old Jim Morrisson Motto of "Take it easy, baby, take it as it comes."
