Spring has Sprung!

Spring is finally here after a looooong cold winter (for those of us in Western PA anyways).  Nothing is more exciting than the first warm day of spring followed by signs of new life popping up all over.   I think my hyacinths are my favorite spring flowers.  Their fragrant smell greets me each time I walk up the steps to my front door. 

 

dafidilles are pretty too :)

 

 

Speaking of new life....

 

its a little hard to see but the yellow egg on the end says "baby #3"

 

My husband and I are expecting our 3rd child!  The initial shock is finally wearing off and we are starting to get excited about this new addition (our oldest is currently 2 1/2 and my baby just turned 1 so things are about to get pretty busy over here!) 

 

The baby is due mid October which happens to coincide with my busiest time of year!  That being said, I'm not sure what this will mean for GouldThreads.   Feel free to start fall/Halloween, winter/Christmas orders now!   I will keep you updated on the status of my business.  For now I plan to keep crocheting away :) 

 

 

 

 

Speaking of crocheting.....

 

I have been working on some orders again (now that my energy has returned) and am totally in love with my newest creation:

 

 

Isn't this little bumblebee hat adorable!  This was a custom order to be given as a gift for a bee-keeper.  Its for a little girl so I added a scalloped edge and flower for a feminine touch but it could be made without for a boy as well! 

 

Another fun spring accessory for little girls is the large flower headband.  I wore these on my daughter a lot in her first year before her hair had much length 

 

 

They are pretty on older girls too though!

 

 

 

As always, if you would like to place an order please email me at gould.threads@yahoo.com or find me on facebook.
