Has anyone noticed how popular mushrooms seem lately? I feel like I see them everywhere – not that I’m opposed. I’ve always been a fan of them, ever since the power-up and one-up mushrooms from Super Mario. I did want to try to recreate my very own toadstool via crochet, so I whipped up another… Continue reading Mushroom Amigurumi Tutorial
Right at the start of the year, I flew to New Orleans to visit my mother, who recently moved there. It was my first visit to her new house, and the second time I’ve ever been to New Orleans – the first was nearly ten years ago, and I don’t remember much of it (as… Continue reading Pietro the Clown Crochet Tutorial

And I love flowers, fruit, and honey, so bees more than make up for the pain of when I get stung. I was trying to think of things I could… Continue reading Honey Bee Amigurumi – Save the Bees!
So, I’m obsessed with flowers, and have been since I was very young. I was the kid in the neighborhood that rounded up all of the dandelion puffs and blew on them (much to the chagrin of my neighbors), making a wish on each flower as the seeds drifted away in the wind. Needless to… Continue reading Rose and Leaf Applique

We’ll be making this cute little “kit-tea” cat (sorry,… Continue reading Kit-tea Weekend Crochet-Along #1
