Little Projects

Two of my nephews had birthdays recently and we were at their birthday party over the weekend. I realized I should have something for them late last week. Seeing I'm the master of last minute projects, I decided to make something. Then I realized my niece had a birthday not that long ago. The. I remembered my other nephew also had a birthday in that timeframe. 

I can make 4 last minute birthday presents with a 5 week old baby, no problem. I came across a tutorial for crocheted balls on The Purl Bee (http://www.purlbee.com/the-purl-bee/2013/7/26/whits-knits-crocheted-balls.html). I have a plethora of leftover yarn that needs to be used. 

I made a total of 4 in about 3 hours. I didn't think to take a picture with all 4. Mine didn't turn out the size in the tutorial. I followed the extra small size for the white one and small for the brown.

They were fun to make and my niece and nephews seemed to like them. My sister commented to my niece that it's an "Approved to throw in the house" ball.
