Crochet Cuffed Booties

 made this crochet booties using worsted weight yarn and a size H hook. It took me about two hours to make. The pattern was fairly easy to follow with clear instructions.  It can be made in a solid color or in two like in the picture. Personally, I think two colors look super cute.

Crochet Whale Amigurumi Pattern Review

Amigurumis are the cutest addition to any nursery or play room. I was so happy my friend asked me to make an amigurumi for her! 

Crochet Whale Amigurumi Pattern Review

I bought this Whale Amigurumi pattern by SweetCarolyns to make a whale for a friend who was decorating her nursery with a whale theme. 

This Crochet Amigurumi pattern is very easy to follow, it works up really fast. You will need to sew on the fins and tail. You will also stuff it as you go.  The resulting whale measures close to 6 inches. 

See this post to find out what you will need to make an Amigurumi.

Happy splashing!

Pip the Hippo Amigurumi Lovey Security Blanket Crochet Pattern Review

The story behind this new blanket that has a hippo amigurumi:



My husband asked me to make a special gift for his co-worker who is expecting their first baby girl. I made her a blanket using the granny square stitch and switched colors every five rounds.

Hippo Crochet Amigurumi Security Blanket by OneandTwoCompany Pattern Review  

The original pattern to make the hippo security blanket I used several years ago has been updated and now includes the arms for the hippo. This is such an EASY security blanket to crochet. It uses very simple stitches, it works up fast (unless you do a lot of color changes). 

OneandTwoCompany has beautiful designs. I am very pleased with their patterns. The instructions are very clear, easy to follow, it has a lot of pictures, and she is also available to help when neeeded. 

(Other Granny Square blankets I have made are available here and here). The blanket has a hippo's head sewn to it.

Melody, the Hippo, has been made in lavender yarn. See this post to find my favorite yarns.
