Nesting - The Knitting of "YOUR" nest

If I were a bird, I'd sing a song
and fly about the whole day long~~~

And when night comes, I'd go to rest

up in my cozy little nest.

Spring is here and all around us, little birds are setting about the task of building their nests. They gather sticks, and moss, and grasses and~~~ yarn.

Birds build nests, secret and deep

in holes in old trees,

and banks that are steep.

(Yvonne Winer)

As promised - the nest building (knitting) has begun! All the little birdies who placed orders will soon be rewarded with a cozy little nest.

Nests will soon be delivered to the states of

Virginia, Florida, Texas, Wisconsin, Arizona,

Oregon, Kansas, North Carolina,

New York, and Georgia.

Nests will also be delivered
to the countries of
Australia, United Kingdom, Germany, Canada,
Denmark, and Israel.



If you placed an order for a little bird nest
and your state or country was not listed above,
please contact me via email!
My email address is listed at the top
of my sidebar.




More than 60 yarns have been gathered from my stash
for the making of these bird nests.
Browns, and tans and blues, and greens.
Eyelash, furry, angora, mohair,
tangled, knotted,
and
curled.



Each little nest will contain between 25-30
different yarns in a variety of
styles and colors.


My goal (cross your fingers!)
is to have all the nests
delivered by
late May.


Can you keep a little secret?
(5 little nests will soon be delivered
to their new homes!)


What about little fall and winter birdies?
Don't they need little nests?
Of course they do!




Anyone who is interested
in ordering a little knitted nest
may contact me via email.



The next little round of "bird nest knitting"
will begin in August.
This little birdie
will knit for about 6 weeks
to fill those orders.

(No yarns were harmed

in the making of these

photographs! )
