Yarn crafters unite!

This is Ulyssa the unicorn by Hooked By Katie, she comes in both a free and paid pattern version. I love her, except for that far back leg which I am still not convinced about.

My first attempt at doing some embroidery.... it's for kids, but I had lots of fun. I already ordered a new kit with a happy little sheep on it, and I'm so excited to start it!
Those are so fun.
 
Awwww that is adorable. Hello kitty is a cutie. You can make those embroideries into pillows and bags too, just in case you end of lots

I'm a firm believer that hello kitty is ment for everyone!
 
I do a lot of crocheting to de-stress after a working day, and it is really nice to watch some TV and do some working with the hands.

Here are a few samples of the things I have done:

Some mini-Cthulus that got distributed at work.

Coooooooookies.

songbag.jpg

Song bag for my nephew - a song bag is essentially a bag filled with little crocheted things - you pull one of them out of the bag, and sing a song about it. So, a ball, a heart, flowers, kittens, doggies, etc, etc....

Rainbow blanket finished last year. Sooo pretty.

Posted this over on my instagram- my goose Janet is an excellent model since I'm selfie challenged. :p The shawl was also supposed to be an advent project; but I finished it up a couple weeks ago.
 
Got this vintage Ariel fin for free today,
So of course I had to make her a matching bikini top!
The flounder and Ariel came in a box set with Eric and a mint green boat and her bag, and hair clips, came from a mixed box of toys from goodwill!
she looks amazing!!!

Ok... pic heavy, I’ll leave most of them small. This is what happens when you have a mom who loves to crochet. My sister gets all the shirts, vest, and most of the scarves, my nephew got the masks. E has a collection of little food. I’ve accumulated quite a lot. Plus, not pictured, I’ve made a blanket for E every year of her life and several other just because. I like make both baby and adult blankets to donate. Oh, btw, it feels so wrong calling them blankets. They are always afghans to me. First the few full size.

that last is a close up of my shawl turned wall art. The little coasters were definitely my work. Then a close up of my favorite purple one. This yarn was made from scraps of silk saris.

Wow those baskets in the second pic look really cool! How’d you make them keep their shape like that?
I also like the little jellyfish :)

It's the stitches, tension, and yarn that help the keep their shape. My mom made the little ones... like the hanging one with hello kitty in it. She made the jellyfish, too. They have a sponge inside that floats and are fully machine washable and even dryer safe. My nephew plays with his in the bath.

Oh ok, I knit a bag once and it was super floppy so I wasn’t sure. And Aw that’s cute that they float :D
