In 2017, I set out to make a crochet lime to decorate my cubicle since that’s my company’s logo. The first one was just a little guy. I liked him, but I wanted something a little bigger. That’s where lime person v2 came into the picture - and he had arms and legs! This version became quite a hit at the office and I’ve made quite a few since. We’ve even dubbed him “Limey” - the mascot of my team. People will stop by and borrow one before they go on vacation so they can take pictures with him to share when they return to the office. I’m pretty proud of how v2 turned out and the way he was received in the office.

I decided I wanted an even bigger Limey, so here is v3 (aka “Big Limey”):

My BFF, AZ, had baby #2 this summer and I was unable to attend her sprinkle due to living so far away. When baby #1 was born, I crocheted her Miss Monkey to go along with her monkey nursery theme. I had planned to make something for Baby #2, but I hadn’t decided exactly what to make. One day while talking to AZ on the phone, she informed me Baby #1 (now an adorable 5 year old - let’s call her PZ) had decided Baby #2 needed an owl to match Miss Monkey. How could I say no to that?
