Today's post is intentionally a day behind so I could recap my visit to a local wedding show/wine tour, Weddings in Woodinville. The tour was recommended by my venue coordinator and I'm so glad we attended since it was tons of fun! Unfortunately, I only snagged pics at Novelty Hill - Januik so use your imagination for the others!

Jeff and I carpool since we work in buildings that are very close to each other. I have been in deep need of a hat to keep me warm on my walk between buildings.

After I gave my friend the amigurumi raichu, another friend decided he wanted an amigurumi too. We scoured Ravelry for something he might like, but couldn't find anything.

The only patterns I found looked way too cartoony, so I decided to make my own. That was at the end of June. It took me six months, lots of iterations, and lots of "frustration breaks" to finish this bird. I'm happy to announce she is complete and I'm going to share my first ever crochet pattern so others can make less cartoony parrots.
