Stash Scraps

Remember this stash? Well it is now substantially reduced due to my desire to bring dinosaurs back into common existence ...
... and now I have very limited stash ... mostly blues ... I found this free pattern from Lion Brand which I have now begun to knit and adapt in earnest. The squares are really quick and easy. The pattern really satisfies my need to use up every last scrap of valuable yarn. My poor sewing machine has seen little to no action (apart from the odd little job such as securing a hem on her weeny tiny person sized jeans.) Baby bunny turns 1 soon - can you believe it? She recently took her first steps alone - although she prefers to walk while grasping your finger tightly and noisily insisting you go where ever she wants to go ...

I made a similar dinosaur years ago. I don't think mine was quite as tall as yours. They are very cute.

Hi Rachael, I LOVE that dinosaur, just gorgeous. Love the crochet flowers in your previous post too. I just recently finished knitting a little top for my niece and have got into the knitting bug so looking for a new project. Hugs, Catherine x
