Sitting on the Down Low

So things here have been not to busy in the crochet area. We have been traveling, visiting, having guests over, and getting sick lately at our home. So me and the hook haven't had much time to work on anything. I finished up some Easter things and baby gifts before the holiday weekend, and I just got my Twinkie Chan Foodie book. I don't normally make things from someone else's patterns but I am an admire of Twinkie and her work and am taking time to work through her patterns as a learning experience. It is interesting how people do things differently and it does go much quicker when I am not crocheting and writing a pattern. I have made the Cake Tissue cozy and am in the process of making the Bomb Pop Scarf. So yeah I guess you can say I have been slacking in my work department but I need some R&R and this is it I think. Don't worry I will have my Princess Bubble Gum made up soon along with a few other new things in the next few weeks.

Just some of the things I made up before the holiday for the littles in my life.

Someone Unexpected

Introducing Princess Lumpy Hoodie based on Adventure Time. Ok I lied she is not the last of the group, there will be one more addition. :)

                       Now I will be off for the rest of the week, welcoming my brand new little niece. :)

Zodiac of the Week- The Cat

The Cat: the 13th Animal of the Zodiac (should be in the Zodiac)

The Cat and the Zodiac


There is a legend that goes along with this little guy concerning the Rat, the Zodiac animals, and the reason why the cat is not officially in the Chinese Zodiac.

This little guy measures 5 1/2 inches tall (not including ears)
Everything on him is hand crocheted or stitched with love. Also included is a card printed with original artwork and the story about the Cat and the Zodiac.

A long, long time ago, the Cat and the Rat were the best of friends.......

Spring Has Sprung...And I Have Been Lazy

So the weather was finally really nice this weekend, which meant I did pretty much nothing crochet wise this weekend. (A girl has got to get started on her tan you know). ;) I did start to take care of my Easter crochet for the little's. I thought making some small egg shaped plushies of characters they liked would be perfect. So for the bigger of the little's I am making a set from Mario (there will be Mario, Luigi, Micro Gumba, and a Pipe that they can actually fit in). For the littlest of the little's I am making a Totoro set (The big, Med., and Sm ones). I also may have to make two Pikachus since they have requested such. We will have to see.

The Green piece is the going to be the top of the pipe if anyone is curious. :)

Zodiac Hoodie of the Week- The Pig

The Pig the 12th Zodiac

Pig is a pure model of sincerity, purity, tolerance, and honor. When you first meet him, he may seem too good to be true. He is careful and caring, obliging and chivalrous. If you put your trust in him, he won't let you down and he will never try to. Pig simply wants to do everything right.

Here is the last little guy in the Zodiac but there is one more animal that I will be adding. The Cat, just wait for the special story behind the cat and the Zodiac animals.

Just in Time For Spring

Introducing my Kandy Shop Kawaii Bears. There are three bears in this collection and each one is just as yummy as the next. There is an ice cream bear, a dreamsicle bear, and  a cupcake bear. Scoop yours up before they disappear.
