The creations have been created and are on their way, so come see what's popping up at The Crocheted Moon.
The making of a small bee village!
This wonderfully small creation has been in the making for a long time. I am very excited to show and offer you these mini bee characters. My daughter has been my 50/50 co-designer on this project. She sketched out the design, we did a mom & daughter yarn spree, and I changed 2D paper into 3D yarn! There will be five hive villagers to start out with, with specifically designed clothes and colors for each. You would not believe how many different skeins of yarn we needed for each little bee...or maybe you would lol. They will also each come with a little card describing their important role in the hive. The card will look a little something like this....VVVVV
Later I hope to add a hive that will act as home and carrying case for our mini friends.
Get to know the Bees of Honeycomb
No hive ever exists without their queen - Meet the Queen of Honeycomb Hive. She is adorned with her golden scalloped crown, rosy cheeks, and her ruffley gown done in her hive colors of Jade Blue & Boysenberry.
And no Queen exists without her gaurd - Meet Hive Guard of Honeycomb. He is fashioned for duty with a scowl to keep unwanted visitors out and is accompanied by his guards uniform done in pewter gray, edged in the hive colors of Jade Blue & Boysenberry, and lastly it is embellished with the hive insignia of a hexagon and starburst.
Who gathers the pollen for the honey? - Meet Mr. Worker Bee. He is the reason we have the saying "Busy as a Bee" and you can't miss him as he buzzes around town in his multi-colored shirt that resembles all the colors of the flowers he visits every day.
And what kingdom would be complete without the vitality of youth - Meet Baby Bee. This very tiny bee is just too irresistible especially when it's wrapped up in it's super soft blankie.
Last, but not least is the hives dutiful caretaker - Meet Nurse Bee. She is pristine in her white apron and nurses hat. She cares for all her tenants at the hive but definitely has a soft spot for the swarm of Baby Bees.
When can I have my own hive?
Like our friend Little Bigfoot, these amazing little characters will be available starting in Sept 2022. You can preorder them during the month of September and then a limited number of them will be sold at the fall event going on at the Sandy Expo in November.
