As always, there were so many creative projects linked up last month! Did you see them all? I especially love these sweet little shoes by My Places!
Giveaway
April's sponsor is Yarn Baby. One lucky winner will receive one skein of the beautiful yarn pictured here. It's a super bulky merino wool with a 20.5 micron. It's 80 yards of squishable goodness. I haven't had the pleasure of working with this yarn, but I'm assured it's super soft -- and I totally believe it. This colorway is "Stormy".

I like the Red Velvet Alpaca yarn because of the tonal color and the weight of the yarn.
ReplyDeleteOh!! The Sea glass! I love all the shades in it annns can picture a cuddly cowl made out of this!! Gorgeous!!
ReplyDeleteThe Punky Brewster is amazing. Purple is my favorite color and I wear a lot of green. Together, they're fantastic. I'm also often drawn to thick-and-thin yarns. It's fun just to look at. Must feel amazing to the touch.

ReplyDeleteWow, it is so hard to pick. Seriously. hard. They are all so flipping amazing. Lavender Sunset is one of many that speaks to me!

ReplyDeleteI love the Cozy Cabin yarn! I am in love with the color combination, and Tussah Silk is incredible! :)
ReplyDeleteI like the Lavender Sunset. The colors of lavender with hints of blue and green are absolutely beautiful. Lavender has always been a favorite of mine, but the combination of the colors is unique.
ReplyDeleteI like the Organic Cotton in Sprout. It's such a fresh, clean, springy color.
ReplyDeleteI love Rustic Rainbow. The colors are beautiful and I love Merino wool!
