Nests for the Wild Baby Rescue Center and Wildlife Response

 

Nests for the Wild Baby Rescue Center and Wildlife Response
 

Here are two lighthouses I made as part of an assignment for my CYCA certification. The pattern is from Lee Mathewson's site, used with permission for my project.
 

This burial pocket is made with two granny squares sewn together in diamond shape. The second is just folded over. You could weave ribbon through or decorate in some fashion if you wanted to as well. I used baby Lion Brand Pound of Love.

 

This is a poncho that I made as part of the requirements for the CYCA Certified Instructor Program. It uses two strands, a P hook, and basic stitches. Works up really quick. You can find the pattern at the CYCA site.

 

This toilet tissue holder is just dc in the round like making a hat, with a little pom pom on top. The second one was adjusted in height, has a rolled up brim with a picot edging.

 

 

I recently came across this pictures of a clown crayon holder I made years ago. I'd like to make some more clowns but have been unable to find the rubber clown faces.
 

 

Here is a picture of a Christmas tree wall hanging. Years ago I made some of these and in 2004 I decided to make some as gifts. I used brown to represent the tree trunk. Those are picot stitches around the sides and a plastic ring for the hanger. This is not my pattern - I made my own version after seeing one at a friend's house.

 

Pattern is the Butterfly Fridgie

The instructions call for a yarn body but the picture shows a chenille stem, which is what I use.

The one on the left is made with Red Heart variegated yarn called Bikini and a white chenille stem. I find the yellow (as in the center group picture) and the bright pink do well with this yarn. The one on the right was made by my daughter in Red Heart yarn, one of the blue shades but not sure which one. She used a sparkly stem.

These are fun to make and quite easy. With an H hook, I can get 13 butterflies from an 8 oz. skein of Red Heart yarn.
 

 

Here are a few of the cute little pumpkins I made using the pattern "Pumpkin Fridgie" at http://www.crochetnmore.com/pumpkinfridgie.htm
I didn't add the face since I didn't want the Jack o' lantern look, but did add a leaf using a different pattern :-(

The buttons above were my first at the Cabana. I keep them for sentimental reasons. :-)
