Where do I start? All of my projects are the result of so many different pieces of inspiration coming together, I'm not sure how to tell the story behind my Sirius Star Pillow. To start, I've had sea creatures on the brain for a while. First the jellyfish, then the...
I'm going to start with the fact that I'm a terrible aunt. My new nephew was born, oh, two months ago now, and I'm finally sending him this Get Some Zzz's crochet baby blanket. It's filled with lots of our love, so hopefully he doesn't hold the delay against us! My...
After I made my Summer Diamonds Cardigan, I had a few balls of the We Are Knitters Cotton Wool left over and I just couldn't let it sit unused. At the same time, I had been thinking about making toddler dresses ever since I made M her Purple Princess Dress and had...
I forgot which day it was, but my purse happened to be on the floor and M decided it was more fun to go through the purse than to play with her other toys. Because of course mommy's purse would be more interesting! Once all the contents had been dumped out, she then...
We've been singing Slippery Fish a lot in our house lately (that, and What Does the Fox Say?), and with Shark Week coming up, I thought I'd make a quick crochet shark stuffed animal to share with you all, and of course, for my kids! This crochet shark amigurumi is...
It's here! After, gosh, 3 or 4 months of designing, crocheting, and procrastinating, I'm sooo excited to finally share my finished Zoodiacs c2c crochet afghan with you all. Can I tell you how much I am in love with this blanket? And it's not just because I spent so...
Just like with the Mouse graph from last time, this little guy's name is also up for debate. I call him my Zoodiacs Ox c2c crochet graph, but I guess he's really just a cow. Not a dairy cow, mind you, which I guess is why I want to call him an ox. I like to think of...
For the Zoodiacs Mouse c2c crochet graph, I always have to tell myself to call him a mouse and not a rat. A lot of interpretations of the Chinese Zodiac say rat, but in chinese, the word can either mean rat or mouse, and who wants to be a rat? Let's all be mice...
Whenever I see a pig, I think of the game we play with our little ones - this little piggy on all of their toes. My kids never loooved the game, but you're guaranteed to get some giggles when you play, and it's always fun to think up new errands for all the little...
The Zoodiacs Dog C2C Crochet Graph design may be one of my favorites, this and maybe the piggie coming up next. I love that I can give him a bright blue eye spot because what dog actually has that? Designing him made me miss our own puppy, Isabel, whom we had to leave...
