But aren’t these guys just the cutest? I have spent the last week doing a lot of pattern repetitions, and I am still on the long slog of making my second sock with no real progress (other than the sock is a little longer). The one new thing I have to show is that I […]

As we are in shark week month (coming up on the tail end of shark week itself) I decided to make some crochet sharks. At first I went looking for some free shark patterns, and I even found some really cute ones (links at the end of the post) but none of them were what […]

I touched on this just briefly in my “Amigurumi Army“ Post, but I wanted to take another post to wax poetic a little bit more, specifically on amigurumi dinosaurs. Growing up I loved dinosaurs. My favorite stuffed animal was a little brown triceratops. The Land Before Time movies were fan favorites (at least the older […]

I have a bit of a love hate relationship with granny squares. On the one hand, they’re super fun to do. They come in all shapes and sizes (not just squares), numerous patterns and you can make them just about any color you want. The stitches can be simple with the traditional granny square, or […]

This is a quick post since we’re right before the last big holiday of the year and I’m sure everyone is busy getting ready for new years eve celebrations. I’ve finished the large Haro! After getting ¾ of the way done with it I though “maybe I should have tried for a different color”, but […]

A couple of months ago I found an amigurumi pattern for a robot named “HARO”. They’re a mascot character for the TV series Mobile Suit Gundam. I had some free time on my hand, some yarn that I needed to use up and some leftover stuffing so I decided to give the pattern a shot. […]

I think that anyone who’s done crochet for any amount of time has heard about amigurumi, the Japanese art of creating cute little stuffed animals out of knitting or crochet. there’s something a little addictive about it, just sitting down and in an hour or two you’ve got a cute little stuffed animal or toy.

Good evening! I meant to get this posted this morning, but things don’t always go the way we plan. I hope this post is worth the wait! One thing I like about crochet is that if you’re doing a small project it can go by pretty fast. I’m currently working on a whole mess of […]
