Knitting again

At Christmas time, well actually before that for my niece's birthday, I started knitting again. I made a couple of really cute "squash blossom hats" in blue with a green stem. I didn't take any pictures of just the hat so you could see the stem. Darn. But this is Avery. She loves hats.


While looking for a pattern for that hat, I signed up for a regular email. They recently sent an email with a bunch of "monster" patterns and I decided Edin would love it. Then two more nieces had birthdays so I knitted them a monster, each in pink.

Edin's is the poor dejected looking red one. He had already given his some serious TLC, boy style. He takes it everywhere with him, including to bed. It gets dragged around by the feet. Poor Red Monster. I crocheted a blue circle as the eye for his but then I bought beads for the others and he decided he had to have one, too.
