With Easter just a couple of weeks away, we thought we would give you a quick tour around some of the Blogstars’ designs that would make perfect gifts for your friends and family.

Emma Varnam created this gorgeous hare for us as part of our Woodland Toys collection crocheted in Life DK.

Even at this time of year there can be a little chill in the air so why not knit this beautiful cowl designed by Phil Saul from The Twisted Yarn in Batik.

The Wonder motif by Emily from The Loopy Stitch in Special DK is so bright and optimistic.  Make it as a coaster or join more together for a wrap and you won’t go far wrong.

What could be more seasonal than a daffodil and Lucy at Attic 24 has come up with the perfect design. We bet you won’t be able to stop at one, so why not crochet a host of golden daffodils in Stylecraft Special DK.

Janie Crow’s beaded decorations would make lovely bunting or make them part of a seasonal flower arrangement.  They’d look gorgeous nestled in your Easter flowers or hanging on a spring branch.

Helen from Crystals and Crochet was inspired to create this mandala by a visit to New Zealand.  Called Island Dreams it is made in Naturals Organic Cotton, which has such a great palette of colours. Putting together your own combination will be such fun.

Helen Kurtz from Josie Kitten is well-known for her love of socks and Mermaid’s Playtime is one of our favourite designs.  We think they would look great in one of the new Head Over Heels – Colours of The World shades.

Alice Bunny  is such a cute seasonal toy from Julia at Hand Knitted Things.  Made in Batik we’re sure she will be much loved by whoever you make this for.

As flowers begin to appear in our gardens, we thought that Polly Plum’s Wild, Wild Wallflower mandala would really cheer up your home. The shades in Special DK that she has chosen are just so happy.

Have a very happy Easter wherever you are.
