Emotional Support Chicken #5
The final chick in my flock, a charming little brown one, is all set to lay eggs! That means it’s time to put my knitting needles down and take a break from chicken knitting for a bit. Cluck yeah! LOL

Emotional Support Chicken #1
Life is Hard! We All Need a Chicken to Make it Better!
These days, it often feels like life can be a real challenge. We all go through tough times; sometimes, we just need something to lift our spirits. I recently came across a fun chicken pattern, and I thought, why not join in on the trend of Emotional Support Chicken everyone is talking about. ?
I have a dear sister in-law who is dealing with a health crisis. Making this chicken for her feels like it could be the perfect touch of comfort in her healing process. It’s a small gesture, but sometimes, the little things bring us the most joy.
All done yet, and it looks like a chicken!

I just finished making another beret, this time sized for a child or young adult. What I love about this design is that the ribbon can be flipped, giving the beret a different look. It’s a fun and versatile piece that can easily match different outfits!

Colorful Cotten with Hand-Spun Wool Beret
Many years ago, I took a trip to Solvang with some knitting friends, and naturally, we stopped by a yarn shop. I found some gorgeous yarn from colorful variegated cotton with wool and hand-spun. It was a lucky find! Recently, while cleaning and organizing my stash, I came across those skeins. I used the skeins for a beret, following a pattern from Ravelry that I've used for the last five berets I knitted as gifts for family.

Tam/ Beret with Flowers
I recently looked for an easy-to-follow Tam/Beret pattern and found it on Ravelry by Margit A.
I knitted a red, a black, an off-white, and now a black one with flower buds.
