Colorful Hearts

Tubby in the Tub
Feb 9th
I’ve been looking forward to sharing these adorable pics from Azusa, my friend and colleague who was nice enough to test the pattern for Tubby a while back.
Don’t you love her Tubby’s multicolor bubbles? She produced her own variegated effect by mixing shades of blue yarn together. Very clever.
Azusa decided that Tubby was the one who needed a bath!
I was holding off on posting these photos because I wanted to wait for the debut of Azusa’s Etsy shop! Azusa is a multi-talented designer and crafter, and now she has her own line of handmade stationery. I urge you to check out plurabelle press right now, as she has cute Valentine’s cards available, and will be adding more very soon!
Thank you, Azusa, for a fabulous test!
Alien Hearts?
Feb 8th
Another heart knitter, Christine added funny little eyes to hers, making him look kind of like a heart-shaped alien!
It must have come from the same planet as these hearts, which were knit up by the people at knit-one-one:
I think I’d be pretty happy if these little guys decided to invade our planet!
Felted Basket of Felted Hearts
Feb 7th
The only thing better than a tiny heart is a bunch of tiny hearts!
Martina knitted up this basketful of felted goodness for no one in particular, according to her Ravelry page about the project. I bet she can find some lucky recipients by next Thursday though. Oh! Only a week until Valentine’s? I have some serious thinking to do myself…
Martina also has her own wool shop in Whitby, Ontario. If you’re in the area, check out Kniterary!
Little Pink Heart
Feb 6th
I’ve been really happy to see tons of people recently making hearts from the free pattern I posted a year ago (146 projects on Ravelry!). This simple pattern has taken on many cute, fun, and beautiful incarnations in different knitters’ hands, so I’m going to share some of my favorites in the days leading up to Valentine’s Day.
To kick things off, this one couldn’t be sweeter.
Shawna decided to knit up a bunch of hearts for her son’s kindergarten class for Valentine’s Day. The above photo comes from her recent blog post about it, with her daughter modeling the adorable sample she started with.
Too precious.
