I reduced the Budgie pattern in Colorful Crochet Birds by Ilaria Caliri to make these mini Budgies in the same style. They are a little more than half size.

These elephants are based on a pattern found here by Divya Natesan with a more sculpted ear design and a little tail.

I’ve been doing a lot of restocking items and making color variations. This means I haven’t had time to make anything from the new books I’ve purchased or all the ideas suggested. I’m eager to commit time to crocheting new things.

I’m back at the Greenway Station Farmers Market in Middleton, WI on Thursday mornings from 8 am to 1 pm, now through October 2nd, 2025.

I will be in Friendship, WI this Saturday, May 17th, outside the American Legion at 207 Main St. for their Armed Forces Day Celebration. The Adams County Humane Society Wine Walk will also be going on in the area.
