"The whole difference between construction and creation is exactly this: That a thing constructed can only be loved after it is constructed; but a thing created is loved before it exists."

Beekeepers Quilt



It was the perfect storm! It is knitting - using sock yarn none the less!, it is a quilt, it is adorable, beautiful and has the name,'Beekeeper' in it! Once I saw tiny owl knits' pattern on Ravelry, I knew it would be my next pastime obsession!


Here is the link, in case any of you fall in love too and wish to start swapping beautiful mini skeins of yarn with me!

Cate what an interesting project this is going to be! It is a project that you can carry around in your purse too it looks like? Very cool but I am busy felting right now so no skeins to swap with you . I need to read the instructions fully but are these stuffed with something? The pictures are cool that is for sure.
Missed you at Rosemary's! We should get together one day soon?

Thank you Janice and Judy!
They sure are stuffed - cute little things! They are affectionately called, hexipuffs! I'll have to post more photos - I've been busy tagging these guys along with me AND I've been buying wool! :D
Judy - I was so sorry to have missed it! Niece's wedding this year! :)
I'd love to get together - slowly but surely I'm getting things back in functioning order! ;)
