Although there are some awesome groundhog crafts I could make, I don't think Phil, who has doomed us all to more winter, deserves it.
Nope, I'm going back to Christmas.
This 4 inch tall tree was requested by the BF's boss for a friend that collects Christmas trees...even in February? I took the picture just before the storm hit. I've been meaning to take some pictures in the snow, but it's too cold out there, and I'm a wimp. Please don't hold that against me.
The pattern is improvised - It's a thin cone shape (just 2 increases per row), but at random points I did 3 sc in the front loop, and on the next row, I just did one sc in the back loop. It makes for some cute little fluffs, eh? The cranberries are just felted balls. For the popcorn, I rolled 3 felt balls (1 larger than the other 2), stopping just before they were dry. Then I dipped them together into the hot water and rolled them until they were dry. A little tedious, but I can't imagine crocheting something that small.
Next - reindeer?
PS: OK, OK - I have to honor Groundhog Day just a little. And I agree, this groundhog must be stopped.
