So I missed Thanksgiving but I did do a Christmas Cthulhu. My husband loves these so his reaction to them makes me want to create more. I did a Christmas one for his stocking. I added a scarf and hat to make him extra cute and Christmas-looking. Working on a few more themed Cthulhus that [...]

Ever since I started making amis I have been wanting to crochet Zero from the Nightmare Before Christmas. It’s one of my favorite movies and Zero is one of my favorite characters. I did a body even though I could have just attached the felt to the head since Zero really doesn’t have a body. [...]

The Christmas celebrations have begun so I can start sharing some of my latest crochet projects. Here is a cute little horse inspired by one that I saw on Ravelry. I didn’t want to follow the pattern because I get lost when following some patterns and find that I frog way less if I just [...]

Here is my latest amigurumi. She’s just a little doll because I wanted to practice making the head and body for some other projects. Her yarn hair turned out pretty good and a lot better than my first attempt. I think I actually might be improving on making these amigurumis.

On Craftster.org, they had a Mario Bros. swap so naturally I just had to sign up for it. My partner’s favorite characters were Princess Peach and Yoshi. After creating Peach, my daughter wanted one and I decided the first one was too big. I made another one for the swap and then a third one [...]

When I first started crocheting again last summer, I attempted to make a Cthulhu for him since he is a gamer. My attempt failed and I gave up. I recently bought Creepy Cute Crochet that has a Cthulhu pattern. I gave it a try and with some minor changes came up with this little monster. [...]
