I have always loved springtime! The trees are beginning to get new leaves. Flowers are popping up. Bluebonnets, buttercups and Indian paintbrushes are thick along the Texas highways. I drove out to the hill country for work this week, and the bluebonnets are stunning! My designer brain is working on overload with the constant inspiration from nature. Unfortunately, my fingers can only crochet so fast, so many of these ideas will be relegated to my sketch book for a later time. Last year I published Miss Tulip Amigurumi crochet pattern which can be made in any shade of green you like, along with a multitude of colors for the petals. I hope you enjoy making her as much as I did. There’s also a YouTube video to show how to make amigurumi hair.
