This month we celebrated the return of spring, and Easter for those who observe it, with a special prize CAL featuring all my spring-themed designs. There were so many beautiful entries – looking through all these bunnies and flowers certainly make me feel springlike (even though it’s autumn here)! I participated myself with a new version of an old pattern (Fuzzy Chicks) and a brand new design (Shamrocks):

Now, roundup time! (And don’t forget to keep reading to the end for the April CAL details…)

This photo gallery is randomly ordered. For speed, I just give credit with participants’ Ravelry usernames.

Aren’t they all lovely? Happy Easter to those who observe it; Happy Spring to everyone in the northern hemisphere; and Happy Sunday to everyone else 🙂

Prize Draw

This CAL was sponsored by Suncatcher Eyes. I’d like to thank Michelle for generously supplying the prize of a $10 Suncatcher Eyes gift certificate.

And the randomly-chosen lucky winner is… aaBrink! Congratulations, Alicia – I’ll send your details to Michelle and she’ll set you up with your prize 🙂

Forgotten Gems CAL

Every month, in my monthly newsletter, I give a discount code for a ‘Forgotten Gem’ of a pattern – one that, for some reason, hasn’t enjoyed as much popularity as it deserves. (If you don’t already receive my newsletter, maybe you’d like to sign up now? The next one will be going out next week!)

I’ve featured 16 patterns as Forgotten Gems so far. (The image below contains all 16 of these plus the coming month’s discounted pattern.) All these Forgotten Gems patterns are included in the April crochet-along, so there’s a lot of variety including both amigurumi and accessories:

I hope you’ll join us in the PlanetJune group on Ravelry for the April CAL!
