My Advent box was delivered so now it is time to catch up on my posting. I wanted the kids to have items to enjoy before Christmas as they will have plenty on Christmas day. The ornaments seemed to take longer than I thought they would. I had the first snowman finished early so I thought I was doing well. However, as life often does other things came up and the snowmen took longer to make than I had anticipated.
This is an ami pattern I adapted for my ornament project this year. You can purchase this pattern here.
This pattern is made using sport cotton yarn which I didn't have in my stash and I was also hoping to make it slightly smaller for use as a Christmas tree ornament. I went with a combination of Aunt Lydia's and Red Heart size 10 thread's and my Tulip Etimo 1.25mm hook.
For my own records along with the ornaments and a lovey for the youngest this year the package went out with:
LEGO DUPLO Town Santa's Gingerbread House 10976
Calico Critters Mr. Lion's Winter Sleigh
oh he is very cute. I would really like to make one now.
