What's on Your Hooks and Needles in April 2025

Ah, the month I have been waiting for

and it's no April Fool's Day joke......

 

This month the CoM (colour of the month) is....

PINK

I felt inspired by this poem

that I discoverd.......sadly, I can't seem to locate who penned it.

 

Pink’s Lullaby

“Pink’s Lullaby” is a calming ode to the nurturing aspect of pink, often associated with comfort and care. It paints an image of a serene evening, where the color brings warmth to the world.

When evening comes in pastel tones,

And sunlight for the moon atones,

The sky wraps us in arms of pink,

As stars above begin to wink.

 

Like softest sheets on childhood bed,

Or gentle touch on sleepy head.

Pink’s lullaby, a soothing hum,

As day to night does finally succumb.

 

So rest your eyes, let dreams unfurl,

As pink engulfs the waking world.

To every heart, its warmth apply,

In the soft strains of pink’s lullaby.

 

Whichever colour and yarn inspires you to create warmth for the children, this month, please share your crafting with us all.

    This time round I picked one striped wool and one dotty wool.   I hope you can see the effect clearly.   I realised the dotty was going to be very tight in amount so had to accommodate the shortage mid creation by adding a pink striped across the middle.

    • Beautiful, Karen.

    • Love, love, LOVE the yarns in this blanket, Karen. They all play SO nicely together.  :))

      Another clever design 'on the spot' by you. LOVING the addition of the solid pink. It just looks like it was 'meant to be'.

    • Great color combinations.  

  • Crunch Stitch. This isn't a stitch I've used very often but I remembered it was a favourite of Marion's so I thought I'd give it another try. It makes a lovely (crunchy!) texture.

    • Interesting Stitch.  Popping PINK.

    • LOVE this stitch, Patricia!! Kinda reminds me of little ocean waves. 

      This sure is a pretty shade of pink. The same shade as your last four squares?

    • Love this stitch for texture.  Lush hot pink! 💖
