Birds in the Attic

Okay, maybe that's not really true because we don't have an attic. But if you are a follower of talented Lucy over at Attic 24 you will know what I'm talking about. She made these birds ages ago and very generously shared the pattern and of course I had to try it out, so I made 5 of them. Do you see 5 in the photo? NO, because I gave them away to some of the single ladies out here that just needed something to perk their day up. So when I was cleaning up my yarn mess today (yes, I actually did clean), I ran across this one little lonely bird. He looked so cute just laying there, so I just took his photo. I named him the Bluebird of Happiness. I couldn't believe that I made all those birds and didn't have a photo of any of them. But on to Lucy's blog, I have included the link to her below. She has such a colorful and interesting blog to read, so you must go by and check it out. She has so many great and easy patterns that she is more than willing to share with all of us, and she just comes up with them in her head. Smart lady here. So take a run by there and do a little reading.

Now on to another talented blogger. Crochet Dad is one of my followers and we are also belong to another crochet forum. There is a link below to his blog also. Now he is one of the most talented designers and crochet artists that you'll ever meet. He makes the most fantastic hats, and they aren't just regular cap styles, although he does make those. But to me his highlights are the hats that are more of the Fedora style. You just have to stop by and check out his work. Gene also shows some crochet how-to's, like I said he is very talented. So now you have two places that you must go and visit and make sure you leave them a comment, they will love them. Take care.
