sweet things di zia sara!

I am a loom knitter, and a novice at crochet. These are some patterns that I created. I hope you like them. Be sure to take a look through my projects page, as well, for other ideas and projects that are possible with looms!

Click on a name, and it will take you to the individual page for that pattern.

Enjoy, and happy knitting!

Grover and Elmo
Fuzzy ears
Is it a bear with antlers or reindeer? With lighter yarn it would be more reindeer like.... it was an experiment, that turned out kind of cute. My little nephew wore it all the time. Without the antlers if would be a cute bear, or you could add bigger ears and call it a dog, or big floppy long ears, in white yarn and it's a bunny!
