Friday Fun! Gilbert's new Crochet Bird Toy!


Happy Friday everyone!

I had so much fun making my parrotlet, Gilbert a new bird toy this week!

To make this colorful, soft toy, I crocheted & lightly stuffed some bobbles and then tied on some beads and a bell.


It was so fun that I made one for Melanie's parrotlet, Dunkin too!


Please come a little closer, Gilbert wants to give you a kiss!

What fun projects are you working on?

Please leave us a comment and tell us all about them.

We cannot wait to hear!

Have a super weekend everyone!

  1. Hello Gilbert, what a lovely boy you are!
    I think he will really enjoy his new toy, it's so inventive.
    After about 20 years of not knitting anything I am knitting myself a little gilet. The first attempt had to be pulled out - grrrrr, but this one is at the sewing up stage.

  3. Ooohhh what a fun new toy for Gilbert!!! Is it ok to call him "pretty"? ;-)

    Mom is working on my Halloween costume this weekend. She'll probably be using a lot of swear words while doing it.

    Love,

  8. I am PERSONALLY working on my Halloween costume. It is a little hard for me to use the hot glue gun so I need to ask my humans.
