Birthday Crafting :: Round One

birthday gifts

We’ve celebrated the first round of birthdays around here, so I can show you my first round of birthday crafting! My sister-in-law, Anneke, kick started the birthday month followed by Zach and Keri. I had so much fun crafting for all of them!

For Anneke, I made felted baskets. It was my first time at felting. Although they came out a little smaller than I would have liked, I love the idea! I got the pattern from one of my Art of Knitting magazines.

Every time all of us are back at Jeremy’s parents, Zach always gets his favorite breakfast. WAFFLES! So the waffle stitch hat just seemed appropriate for him. He must like it because he’s worn it ever since he got it!

Keri’s gift was the muse hat. I love the holes this pattern creates. Made out of a bulky yarn, it’s thick enough for cold days, but the holes give it a springlike touch.

Round 2 of crafting has already begun with festivities commencing next week. Stay tuned!
