knit snail, flower fairies, & more...

this will be my last post for a bit as i need to focus on getting aydin's grade 2 year planned out & tying up some loose ends before we go on vacation...
i hope that you all have a lovely rest of july & we'll check back in the beginning of august!
first up a few recent knitting & crafting projects...
a gorgeous knit rainbow snail for our friend caleb...

he loves anything & everything rainbow, & lately spirals have caught his eye...so this was perfect!

a gorgeous rainbow pouch (also for our friend caleb)...

i absolutely LOVE the way this one turned out & will have to make another 1 (or 10!) soon...;)

an army green pouch for our friend jacob...

sweet spring chicks...(the pattern is from "the children's year")

these would be perfect for a spring nature table...
these flower fairies are for the bits of goodness, "summer nature table swap"...
inspired by "felt wee folk", they are so fun to make & each has her own personality...


and lastly, we had a discovery at breaffast... aydin spotted this little caterpillar, which will one day become a monarch butterfly...
he was a stow-away on this wildflower bouquet that we have on our kitchen table...;)

here's to endless possibilities & miraculous transformations...CHEERS!

  8. Um...caterpillar will become a Black Swallowtail. Monarch caterpillars are white, black and yellow striped. Which might be cute with your i-cord snail technique... :)
