Just had to share

categories: General

Happy Wednesday everybody! Wow this summer seems to be flying by fast! I’ll soon be going back to school shopping with my Son! YIKES! So I’ll have to enjoy the last few weeks. We really need to hit the beach!

I just wanted to share a few things with you all! I know most of you crocheters know Sara Zimmerman from her Repeat Crafter Me blog. Well she’s shared for FREE so many wonderful patterns over the years. Gosh I’ve been following her since before her baby girl was born!

Anyway her patterns are wonderful and super easy to follow. She has published a few books now. The 1st is Corner to Corner Lap Throw (which I have) and the other will be coming out soon “Crochet Cute Critters” both links below and her 2nd book you can pre-order. The price just went down from $16.99 to $12.15! You won’t be disappointed. (affiliate link below)

Thank you for stopping by!
Happy Crafting!

Week 2 – Faye Doll Crochet a Long Videos

categories: CAL, Videos

Happy Saturday All! Been busy with work and getting videos & pattern ready for week 2 of our Free Doll CAL! I totally spaced and forgot to add the Videos for week 1 so I’ll be posting them here for you!  I also created a playlist for Faye on my YouTube Channel!

I’ve had some questions about the Tulip Hook 2.5mm that I’m using for this doll. First time I’ve used this Brand and I have to say I really LOVE it!  I only bought the one hook but may just have to buy the set. Hmmmm……isn’t Mother’s Day tomorrow?  Anyway…I love my Clover Amour but am also a huge fan of the Tulip Brand also. Can one have to many hooks? Besides they are super comfy and I know I crochet longer before having to put down to give my fingers a rest.  In the video I also share about the bent tip needles I used and have to say they are great for not just Doll Making but any project!

***Edited to Add the Pattern for Week 2 which is the Faye Dress & Shoes CAL sorry about that!

Well that’s all I have right now if you are interested in joining our Facebook Group click the link – Amigurumi Dolls Worldwide **You’ll be asked 3 questions before you join, this is just to cut down on spammers!

Have a great day and Happy Craftin’,

Exciting Announcements

categories: General

Well here it is Sunday March 3rd, 2018 where did February go? WOW there was alot going on for me last month that’s for sure. Things are finally slowing down and so I’ve got a few things that have been going on that I’d like to share with you all! 1st my friend Diana and I  have created another Facebook Group – I’m super excited to announce our New Group called “Amigurumi  Dolls Worldwide”  I’ve been wanting to do a Doll Group for awhile now and I thought it was only fair to drag her along with me since she dragged me to the Crochet Messy Bun  Group! LOL!

Anyway – in this Group we’ll be sharing FREE Doll Patterns, Tips on Doll Making and we’ll be doing a few “Crochet Doll A Longs” (CDAL) I’m super excited about this!  If you’ve been wanting to learn Doll Making OR are a Doll Maker and enjoy making them, then come an join our Group!  Our 1st CDAL will be on March 15th – I’ll be making the videos also for those that are visual learners.

Here is what we’ll be making first!  YES….the Mermaid Doll – she is my own pattern and I am absolutely in LOVE with her!  So click on the link above to join in.

If you don’t have Facebook and would like to do the CDAL also come back on March 15th that’s when the pattern will be posted as that’s when it starts!

Thanks for stopping by and Happy Crafting!

Crocheted Mermaid Dolls

categories: Crocheted Amigurumi Dolls, Pattern

Mermaid 4I’m back and ready to share my first Mermaid Doll I LOVE how she turned out!
For this one I used the following Pattern from Ravelry but I changed her Tail and I used this Pattern for that.  Oh and I added a belly button, not sure if you an see it that good! But I just had to try!
I also made up her Bra Top.  If you’d like to know how I did it please don’t hesitate to ask me!  IT was super easy!  These will be going into my Etsy Shop very soon.  I’ve got one more to show you which I’ll post tomorrow morning.  It is another great pattern and a super cute Mermaid!  So come back and check it out!  Thanks for stopping  by and as always….

Happy Crafting,
