New Name

Came up with a new name! I'm going to change it on Etsy and eventually make a Facebook site. With getting my hours cut back at work I need to focus more on developing a craft business.

On another note I'm working on crocheting Christmas presents. Unfortunately I can't post any until after I give them to my friends and family!

Bought a Nissan Cube!

My first car purchase! It's used but only has 16k miles on it! I'm not crazy about the outside look of it but the inside is awesome! It has color changing lights and a ripple texture ceiling. They call the color Scarlet Red but it's really a maroon. Love the way it drives! More fuel efficient than my Volvo!! Despite getting a great deal the loan is intimidating. It's worth finally having a car where I'm not worrying about if I'll break down.

I tried to teach my boyfriend how to crochet last night. By HIS request. After a few tries he understood how to make a chain. But gave up on the actual crochet in the second row. Too bad because if he stuck with it a little longer he would have gotten it! He says he'll just pay me to make whatever he wants hahaha!

Crochet Dr. House

Dr. House

I had a request to make Dr. House. I based my pattern on Snuffykin's 10th Doctor Who Pattern. I had a little trouble finding the right color yarn for his hair so I settled for this dull brown. I had a lot of fun making it! I used a brown ultra fine sharpie marker to draw specks of stubble on his jaw/cheeks. I had so much fun with the details that I bought clay to make his cane and pill bottle! I think they came out good considering I never use clay. I even made a small pocket on the inside of his coat for his pills!

It was much appreciated and probably is my best work so far!

Crochet Turtle and Dolphin

 I made this turtle for my mom for mother's day. She loves to save turtles off the road and keep them for the summer in a small habitat in our yard. I figured I'd make her one she can keep year round!

Roman Socks Turtle PDF

I made this Dolphin for my best friend who loves dolphins. It's bigger than most amigurumi I've made.

The pattern was great and it came out perfect. I can't remember what site it was on but I will keep looking!

A shrimp made out of a bendy straw!! How cool is that!?
