Crocheting Updates! (a little late)

For Halloween this year I made a couple of adorable ghost ami's for my daughter (witch) and her friend (fairy). I got the pattern from chriscrochetcrazy. They are super easy and quick to make. The girls obviously loved them. :)

Also finally finished up my Katamari ball for the Prince. Woo hoo!

And here he is with his Katamari ball. Yea!
Lately I've been working on making crocheted kitchen dish sponges for Christmas presents. I've probably made about 30 already but somehow some of them made it into my cabinets so I keep having to make more. lol. Pictures to come!
Also need to get busy on the ami's that I'm making Megan for Christmas. Plus I found a really cute pattern for a Christmas tree pattern from PlanetJune that I'm going to make up for my Grandmother. Yea!

I know I could make these patterns on my own but I like to support other crochet artist when I can. :)

Katamari Fun!

Na na na na Katamari Damacy! Yea! I finished the Prince up about a week ago and am currently working on the Katamari ball. I'm about half done hopefully next week I'll be able to post pictures of it along with the link that I used.

Here's a link to the pattern that I bought to make the Prince. It's by Ana Paula Rimoli on Etsy www.anapaulaoli.etsy.com . http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=31621775&ref=sr_list_10&&ga_search_query=Katamari&ga_search_type=handmade&ga_page=&order=date_desc&includes[]=tags&includes[]=title

The only thing I regret is not using a lighter purple on for the legs. Other than that I don't think he turned out too bad. Let me know what you think.

Happy October!

Happy October Everyone! I love October! Fall begins, the weather gets cooler, and of course Halloween!

I sorry that I haven't been posting much lately. My husband got back from Iraq a couple of weeks ago and we've been very busy since he got home. I was super busy before he got home too trying to finish up several projects and here they are.

Here is the Tonberry that I made for my husband. Here's a link to the pattern that I used http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=32326068&ref=sr_list_1&&ga_search_query=tonberry&ga_search_type=handmade&ga_page=&order=date_desc&includes[]=tags&includes[]=title if for some reason the link doesn't work it's made by Talli's Designs on Etsy. I actually didn't finish it until about week after he got home because I came up with idea of getting some glow in the dark yarn to use on the yellow part of the lantern. I was going to use it on the eyes too but the yarn has bits of white in it also and I didn't think that really looked as good as the solid yellow so only the lantern is glow in the dark.

The glow in the dark yarn I used is Bernat Glow in the Dark Light Bright. There are six different colors and I bought one of each so I would have some on hand for future projects. Here is where I bought it in case you are interested. http://www.marymaxim.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/product_10001_10054_3074457345616825697_-1_15019_3074457345616693772

Here's my crooked eyed panda that I made for the crochet along that was hosted by Roxycraft.

My daughter loved it so it went right to her as soon as it was done. :)
I'm not real thrilled with how it turned out though and I will probably try again after Halloween.

As well as crocheting I also managed an attempt at making a paopu fruit pillow from the Kingdom Hearts Game. Mine's not as good as Lil Moon's from Ebay unfortunately I can't draw a star to save my life. Still I'm kinda proud of it and I learned how to do an invisible stitch. So it turned out to be a learning experience as well. Megan wants one too. Since I haven't managed to make another one yet I may just make one for her for Christmas.

Here were my on the go projects for about a week. I wound up making 3 of them 2 crochet and 1 knit. These work great and crochet or knit up really fast! They are made using Lily Sugar'n Cream yarn. Here is the link: http://www.sugarncream.com/pattern.php?P=4

Totoro! :)

For any of you that don't know who Totoro is it's from a Japanese anime movie called My Neighbor Totoro. It's really cute you can check some of it out here.

Sorry no picture I haven't had a chance to make them yet.

I've been thinking that it might not be a good idea for me to use the pictures off of other peoples sites. So from now on I will only be posting projects using my pictures which might mean that I am a little slower in posting new projects. Sorry. :(

Finished my Girl Moogle Maggie.

I finally finished my girl Moogle who I call Maggie a couple of days ago. When I started making her it was with the intent of finding mistakes in my first moogle's pattern. After I got started I realized that I should've taken pictures of how it was being constructed so I took some pictures of how I constructed her. But.... Here's my dilema. I don't know whether I should post the pattern of both of them or just of the first moogle that I made which if I do that then I need to make another one because I don't want to have pictures of a project that doesn't match the colors. Hmmm what to do. ?

While I'm deciding I have already started on another project. Which I hope to have up by next week.

Moogle pattern is going to take a little longer.

While I was working on Kerochan I realized that I made some mistakes in my crocheting while I was working on my moogle pattern so I will be reworking the pattern to correct them before I type it up and list it on Etsy. Will keep you posted.
