Bluebird of Happiness

Look who I found on Ravelry!

Basaltimum made this bluebird of happiness using my Puppet Love pattern. I’m impressed by the clever color work! I asked her how she did it, and this was her reply:

I put random splashes of the contrasting color throughout the body to make it in a fair isle style. I didn’t chart out the colorwork, just let it flow. I used floats to do the head although that part would have worked as panels.

If you’re a Ravelry user, you can see more pics of her construction on her project page. And if you’ve done a cute mod on a Mochimochi pattern, please share it with us in the Mochimochi Friends Flickr group.

Let’s hope this bluebird is bringing springtime weather soon. I for one have had enough of the 30s and 40s!
