Pumpkins
There have been so many things going on that I got very far behind with my posting. This set was one of the first crochet projects I finished after my surgery in May. I bought the Pumpkin Trio kit from Mary Maxim as a present to encourage myself to get back to crocheting after a health related break.
I love the Prism yarn. The colors were so perfect for my fall decorations and the texture felt so nice on my hands. It did break a bit easier than more traditional yarns I use for ami's, but since these were fairly straight forward round projects it was not much of an issue.
These are going to make wonderful fall decorations. I rarely buy kits and I even more rarely make items to keep for myself. I am very excited to have finished these to have for my fall decorating. I do have a full skein of the Prism yarn from the kit left, so I could make another set before the fall weather kicks in.

These turned out really well. Fall is my favorite time of year and I love everything pumpkin flavored. I know I keep saying that I can't wait to be done with school so I have time to crochet again, but every time I visit you I see new projects that are making me want to hurry up the process! LOL Very cute!
ReplyDeleteWow! Those pumpkins look so nice. Good combination of colours.
