Little Things

Hello, friends!

Here are some pictures of little things I've been crocheting lately :-)

An amigurumi mouse. His name is Emile.

Headbands, made using the double base chain stitch.

Sample of crocheted ric-rac.

Amigurumi Pi plushy. He looks blue in the picture, but he's actually purple.


Little motifs. The patterns for them were in the Reader's Digest, Complete Guide to Needlework book. The square is called "Hawaiian square", and is made using the pineapple stitch. The circle is called "Wagon wheel".

Happy Thursday!

Of Blankets and Head-bands

At the Young Ladies Meeting (YLM), the crochet lesson was a pillow. We were going to make eight of the squares with flowers on them, so that's four on each side of the pillow. Well, I decided to turn mine into a blanket, making 56 flowered squares, and 56 granny squares, so, that's 112 in all. For one blanket. I'm making two. These blankets will be twin sized. I have a bunk-bed, so I have two twin beds. That's why I'm making two blankets. I have around 15 flowered squares done, and 3 granny squares done. I've a long way to go!






























Of course, I can't just work on the blanket non-stop, so I do a couple other projects in between.
The picture on the left is a white head-band. The picture on the right is some flowers I made to pin on the head-band. This way, it matches pretty much everything.

That's it for now! Tomorrow I'll post about the little purses I made for my 3-year-old twin cousins, the cutest kids on the planet.

Edit: When I said "Tomorrow" in the last sentence, I wasn't thinking it was Sunday, and that it was the first day of Tent Meetings at our church, so we were gone all afternoon. Anyway, I didn't post. So I am posting today (Monday) instead. Sorry 'bout that!
