Raise a glass to you.

Love Buggers know that small things can mean a lot. It's the entire effort behind our cause, sending a little more love into the universe.

I think often we forget to include ourselves. The Joy Rebel put it best, "sometimes, an outdoor yoga session makes everything right with the world. / and sometimes a margarita does."

Whichever it may be, do something nice for yourself today.

Favorite Patterns

Sometimes I wish I could crochet. Then I could make this adorable love bug!

What are your favorite patterns?

Here are some ideas to get us started...

Hi all!
This is so exciting to have a blog set up for us to share our adventures in LoveBug land.  So I thought I'd post some ideas of where to release these fun little critters and a source where I get pattern ideas.
 
First of all, I don't believe there is any real "rule " as to where to leave a LoveBug.  I am a firm believer in public transit.  Here in Eugene, Or , a lot of us utilize this mode of transport.  The bus is a great place to randomly release a LoveBug or two. 

I've also left some in the library, on a park bench, at the gym and have even been so bold as to just walk up to a perfect stranger, who appears to be having a bad day, and just handing it to them.  Talk about instant gratification!  Seriously the look on that person's face was just priceless.  I didn't find it necessary to stand and wait for further response, the smile was simply enough to make my whole day!

As far as the patterns, I think anything can be made into a LoveBug.  I especially love the patterns of Anna Hrachovec,  Mochimochiland.  Her patterns can be found here on her website and many are free on ravelry.com One of my favorites to create as a LoveBug is the wonderfully adorable Humanbeans .  I make them all different colors and attach a little note to each one and before I set them free, I have a little pep talk with them (they're so anxious to get out there and start spreading the love) (~:

The possibilities are endless.  I hope this little chat was helpful and really look forward to some feedback.  Have a wonderful day everyone!

Up and Running!

These posts will be used when we hear back from someone who found a love bug, new pattern/project ideas, and new ideas about where to leave love bugs.

To kick things off, I hope some fellow Love Buggers will comment and share where they've left love bugs so far.

Happy happiness spreading!
