This week I wanted to add a few posts about some of the techniques I use when I make my amigurumi. Have you ever made a project that won't sit up the way you want it to? I've made my fair share of plushes that need to sit up or have heavy top parts, like… Continue reading Amigurumi Techniques: Weight

Kit-tea Weekend Crochet-Along #1
I've seen people host crochet-alongs (CAL) and I wanted to try my hand at it! I don't want it to be a week-long thing, because I don't want it to be a huge crochet project; I decided to make this a weekend project, starting with today!

Spooky Halloween Pokemon
Halloween draws nearer each day, and I'm excited! I love fall (pretty sure it's close to everyone's favorite season) so I've been adding some ghosts and ghost Pokemon to the shop.

Spoopy Witch Hat
Oh, I love fall! I don't know anyone who doesn't, honestly. Crisp air, pretty leaves, apple cider and toasty bonfires. Plus, my birthday is the first day of fall! Another great thing about fall is Halloween! Sure, I'm older now so I don't go trick-or-treating or dress up all in costume, but that doesn't mean… Continue reading Spoopy Witch Hat
Hoppip-Hooray!
I've been brainstorming new ideas for items to put up in my shop. Everyone seems to really like the Bellsprout and Oddish planters that I have up, so I was wracking my brains for more Pokemon that would look cute in planters. I love both of these little guys, but couldn't think of any other… Continue reading Hoppip-Hooray!
Pokemaniac Forever!
I have always been a Pokemaniac. I can remember getting picked on in school for having Pokemon stuff, or people thinking it was weird that I had boxes and boxes of old Pokemon cards. When I was ten, I put sticky tack on the backs of all my duplicate Pokemon cards and postered my room… Continue reading Pokemaniac Forever!
Bellsprout Pattern
It is late, late, late here, but I'm so excited I can't sleep! I finally got around to opening up a Ravelry store today, and reformatted and added some patterns. I also converted some of my hastily written notes into a pattern! This little Bellsprout is super cute, and he's finally a complete and readable… Continue reading Bellsprout Pattern
