Easter knitting #knittingpodcast

I wish everyone a happy Easter and hope you found some time to sit and relax with a bit of crafting.

I have knitted a few chickens from my handspun yarn to add to my Easter flock. 

I always had an Easter display starting from when the children were small. I used to display their Easter craft to create a display but as the years have gone by some of the pieces were looking a little sad and old so I decided to update a little, starting with some knitted chickens. 

Next year I hope to add some cross stitched pieces to my display but there are so many to choose from I dont know which one to choose first. 

Do you make a display for Easter and do you have any favourite hand made patterns you love to use? I would love to hear what you have made.

I have been knitting up these little birds to add to my Easter display.  I used some of my left over handspun yarn that I had dyed using landscape dyes. 

I hope everyone has a relaxing and safe Easter break.
