Re: Easy Christmas presents to make.They are smashing Helen, are they easy to make, have you got a pattern. Love the colours.
Re: Easy Christmas presents to make.They are from Bunny Mummy's site and yes, they are easy to make. The hardest thing is getting the *&^%* eyes in!!!

Re: Easy Christmas presents to make.They look fab all lined up in a row - i saw some very similar - I cant remember where now - think it must have been on Ravelry - that were bunnies not owls if you want a bit of variety

Re: Easy Christmas presents to make.Hi Mrs Boodles,
Well, I have watched with interest this site for some time as we have recently rehomed eight beautiful battery hens who are beginning to enjoy life ! I am an avid crafter, when I get the time, but loved your post as I have just completed my list for Christmas makes! How about welly boot toppers, there are lots of free patterns around at the moment and they are very trendy, or the snood type / cowl type scarf also popular with 20 plus! Hope to see other ideas though, and enjoying the chat - thank you all. Clucky Carol xxx Re: Easy Christmas presents to make.
I love this idea, it is so nice wearing something unique that has been knitted or crocheted for you I am going to start crochet blankets for the grandchildren, nothing like some of the fantastic crafters on here make Re: Easy Christmas presents to make.Oh Perchy - your blankets are lovely - so snuggly!

Re: Easy Christmas presents to make.Sounds good BM, I to wish I could crochet better than I do. Do enjoy knitting. Thinking of making some soaps, I am going to look and see if there are some sloes around on downs (none to speak of last year) to make sloe gin, did some raspberry vodka a few years ago and apparently it was pretty potent.
Time is just shooting by so really need to knuckle down with these pressies. Re: Easy Christmas presents to make.
Aww Helen thank you Re: Easy Christmas presents to make.
Awww - please don't give up! I was SO rubbish for ages - honestly I have no idea how I ever came to master it in the end (possibly the fact that my daughter saw me trying and decided to learn too and got it right instantly !!!) So worth not giving up though! Helen xx

Re: Easy Christmas presents to make.Ooo, that's a good idea, 'skype how to's' between members.
Only pm your skype address to people though, don't post it as you tend to get undesirables asking to be a friend! I'm seriously not being funny but you could stand a mirror facing the PC so to see it back to front. Richard New Member? Get more from the Forum and join in 'Members Chat' - you're very welcome
Re: Easy Christmas presents to make.I am left handed too BM, think there are some tutorials on you tube for crocheting left handed. haven't had time too look properly yet.
