One of my friends was given a kit to make this little fox and, because she doesn't crochet, she passed it on to me to create. He (she?) was a little fiddly to make and I ended up playing a rousing game of yarn chicken with the orange yarn. I won, but barely. Hopefully she's happy with him. Personally I think he looks pretty bedraggled.
And....the Resident Chef decided that we needed to have eggnog pie and this is the result...
If you want to make your own, he used THIS recipe.
- I know THIS is a pay-item, but it's absolutely awwww-worthy so I had to share!
- If you have an avid bird-watcher on your Christmas list, perhaps they would like THIS.
- Every year about this time I start to see the emergence of 'temperature' projects - either people posting about their finished projects or talking about starting one in the new year. Every year I contemplate doing one but then never do. Initially I thought that they were only done in knit or crochet using yarn and just the thought of the cost of purchasing that many different colours put me off. I have discovered that people are also doing them using cross stitch which is MUCH cheaper and would involve (mostly) less time each day. One example I found was THIS one but there are lots more to choose from if you would like to do one.
Today's quote..."People were created to be loved. Things were created to be used. The reason why the world is in chaos is because things are being loved and people are being used"
