Crochet Nests

With so much going on, hurrying up to wait,  I made twelve nests to ship off to a wildlife rehabilitator in  Pine City Minnesota.  The nests are suitable for mammals or birds.  This group included a variety of sizes.

This is the third bunch I have mailed off.  I belong to a group that has a facebook page and a website.  They have a specific way they want the nests constructed.  Wildlife Rescue Nests

The idea was to get rid of yarn, use it up...well I fell off the wagon and purchased more yarn. Imagine that.

Wonderful service project. It is amazing how that yarn can just jump into your shopping cart . . .

What a great idea and they look wonderful Connie. That yarn just has a mind of it's own doesn't it? I'm continuing in prayer for both of you.
Blessings,

Those are wonderful and really helpful for the animals. I went to the website and saw all the different babies in the nests - sooo cute!

Granny Marigold said...

A great idea. Now I think I'll go to that website and take a looksee.

Those are the cutest things I've ever seen. I went to the website. The little birds in the nests are so adorable. You must have plenty of time to work on these with all the appointments you and Far Guy have. I'm sure sorry for all that far Guy is going through. It surely must be scary. You take such good care of him. He is mighty lucky to have you by his side.

How wonderful of you to make those....another thing to put on my "would like to do someday" list. At least the yarn is new now. I'm sure the critters will really appreciate them but don't expect a thank you note in the mail....from the critters at least! LOL!
