Blue Bird of Happiness Chick!

I knitted a Blue Bird of Happiness Chick today. If you want to knit one of these for Easter, I have a free pattern for a knitted chick containing a creme egg  on my website

Knitted Red Cotton Necklace

I'm knitting a plain red necklace in cotton yarn, it's making my fingers hurt! I don't find cotton yarn as easy to knit with as wool, it doesn't have the same amount of 'give', especially when knitting fiddly items on DPNs. I am using larger needles, than I would normally, the cotton is quite thick, the beads are turning out to be quite substantial, good job I like a statement!

Forget-me-not Brooch

Following on from the i-cord flower post of yesterday, I made a forget-me-not brooch today.
I knitted two stems from i-cord, one slightly longer than the other, then attached these to the back of the flowers. I knotted the stems and arranged the flowers. I can either attach the blooms directly to a garment or back the flowers with felt and sew on a pin.

Knitted Flower

Today I played around with my knitted bead necklace pattern and made a flower
