A Joyful Return to the Show Circuit

It seems the  call of the craft fair season has beckoned me once again! After a well-deserved winter respite, during which I bid farewell to the burdens of canopies and tables, the arrival of spring has brought with it a renewed zest for vending and sharing my amigurumi!

Armed with a single 4-foot table and a little red wagon, I embark on this new chapter, embracing a more modest yet equally fulfilling approach to vending. The joy that radiates from the faces of the children who visit my humble setup is a reward beyond measure! As I build my inventory anew, the plush yarns are an obvious favorite.  Yet, I still have quite a bit of regular yarn in my stash, so I'll be working with both.This season, I plan to pace myself with a more manageable schedule of about one show per month.  I am finished with  the days of the relentless weekly grind and have replaced them with a more relaxed schedule  that allows me to enjoy the experience and then recover from the whirlwind of each event.

So I'm looking forward to a lovely summer of family, friends and fun as well as continued enjoyment of crafting and vending!  Hope to see some of you at some of these events this season!

 In the whimsical world of crafting, where creativity knows no bounds, a delightful fusion has emerged 

This past week I have been just 'foolin around' with some patterns to see how they would turn out.  I made a basket of plush kittens for a craft show and they were so much fun I wondered if they would transfer over into other characters.  I suppose you could call these 'TransKittens' since they have transformed into Pokemon characters.  LOL!  But I thought they turned out cute.  

And while I was into characters I decided to try my hand on a mutant turtle.  I don't think you could call him trans since he is a mutant.  But the popularity of these guys just never ends!

So that's all I have for you today.  Must get busy making the rest of the Cowabunga Crew!  If you would like to make some of these adorable guys you can find the TNMT Pattern here.  Reasonable price and easy to  follow.  I did omit a lot of the slip stitches, using single crochet stitches instead.  He still turned out cute!

Blessings!
