Today’s knitting project is an adorable little bumblebee.
I found a set of free patterns from Valley Yarns of animals made from a simple ball.
This ball was knitted in the round with yellow and black stripes. After stuffing the ball, tiny wings were knitted flat and added to the sides. The addition of two 6/0 beads and an embroidered mouth completed this quick project.
If you would like to make your own, you can download the pattern here.
Happy Knitting.



Today I’m sending you lots of love with the help of this little bunny.
I began with a free pattern, by Sara Elizabeth Kellner, I found on Ravelry. The pattern began at the neck and knitted in the round to the tail. The cast on stitches were then picked up to knit the head and ears. I added a pair of 6/0 black beads for eyes.
I have seen other bee hats on Pinterest, but none of the patterns were free. With a few tweaks to Marji LaFreniere’s original pattern, I had my own Bumble Bee Hat. 
When I began knitting my current set of baby hats, I knew this one had to be included. The ribbon rose on top of this hat, makes it absolutely adorable.
