Easter is just 4 weeks away ...... and it's a perfect time for giving little gifts.

I wanted to share these cute projects with you.

Easter Bunnies

These super cute little bunnies were knitted by

Gillian Milne (a member of my facegroup page).

I love them!

And these really sweet little filled baskets were made by

the very talented Jill Hacker

Easter Baskets

Adorable!

..... and these below by Janet Hall

I hope you are feeling inspired.

You might like to knit some of these easy little chick pockets........

Or why not make an Easter Bonnet or two? There is plenty of time.
