Christmas Time Crochet

It's like a little workshop here...yarn everywhere, buttons, embroidery floss.  And I keep miss placing my scissors!  LOL!!!

More little stockings are in the works.  I love the little snowman!!  Isn't he cute!!  Then I crocheted up the little stripe-ity to go with it.
I like his little face and scarf...it just flat out makes me smile!


 Here is another color combination I am working on.  This one is destined to have a little snowman on him.

I am calling him "Chicken Love"!  I do think I need to tighten up my stitches and work on the body shape a little, I want him to be a little fatter.  But the wings and head I am completely satisfied with!!!  He is so folk-art-ish I can't stand it!
Check out what one of the girls at Knitting taught me!  Yes, broomstick crochet.  It's so easy and fun I can't stand it.  I made myself this little cuff and can't seem to make myself take it off.  I want to make one that is wider, oh if I only had more time on my hands!
I managed to find some time to make these up for an etsy order.  Note the tail!  I changed it up a bit.  Oh how I like making these.  My favorite is the black one.
Well, goodbye for now.  Tons to do, and time is flying by way too fast.  I'll be back soon!  Everyone have a great week!

I love all the stockings you've been making, Dawn. The embroidery stitching is so pretty on all of your things! Also love the cuff and your new chicken design. That black rooster is my fav of all you've made. I need more time to try all of these things! I still haven't tried the second rooster pattern you sent. Between being sick and just life stuff, I haven't had time.

That "Chicken Love" is just too cute. I really must learn or have more patience with all that stitch-ie stuff. Fabulously Rockn'.
