WorldWide Artist Blog Hop

By amy On November 20, 2014 · 3 Comments
I was recently asked by fellow amigurumist DenDennis to participate in the WorldWide Artist Blog Hop!  I am asked to answer 4 questions and then to invite fellow “artists” to continue the chain on their own blogs!  What fun!  I wonder when and where this originated, but I’m game!  Question 1:  Why do I do what I do? Well, the obvious reason is that I love it! Creating and sharing my own little characters gives me joy and I find crocheting to be amazingly therapeutic as well as fun.   It is a very calming hobby and I highly recommend [...]

Stanley the Giraffe

By amy On November 7, 2014 · 4 Comments
  Wow, I can’t believe the year is ending once again.  The weather is getting cooler and I find myself needing to grab an extra blanket before going to bed!  It’s been quite some time since my last post and I apologize for that!  Ever since school has started for my little ones, it’s been one thing after another and my crochet projects have unfortunately been pushed down my priority list!  But I have finally finished writing up another pattern – meet Stanley the Giraffe!  Yes, he’s a bit out of his usual element here…I couldn’t find a nice patch [...]

Penguins, Penguins everywhere!

By amy On August 29, 2014 · 11 Comments
  Here’s my long awaited release, Pippin the Penguin!  I can’t believe I started this penguin back before my kids’ summer vacation began.  I’ve spent all my time with the kiddos this summer and seriously had zero energy left for crocheting!  Now that they’re back in school, I can get back to my project list!  So after many months, Pippin’s pattern is available on ETSY and CRAFTSY.  Pop over and check it out! This is actually my second penguin doll, the first one being Pepe Penguin, who is part of a Christmas trio set I made a few years ago. [...]

Making my Amigurumi Fox

By amy On June 18, 2014 · 2 Comments
I’m always on the lookout for my next ami project…what animal should I create next?  A little while back, I posted this question on my Facebook page and was delighted by all the responses I got!  I read through all the suggestions and was inspired to make a little fox!  This is the first animal in my intended upcoming “Woodland Creatures” collection.  I have yet to decide exactly how many animals I will make, or what animals will actually BE in the collection, but I’ve started brainstorming!  🙂  I’ve got a raccoon, a squirrel, and a beaver running through my [...]

Dottie the Ladybug

By amy On May 2, 2014 · 2 Comments
The weather has been so beautiful lately…the grass is green, the flowers are in bloom, and I was inspired to make my first amigurumi bug.  It was easy to decide which one, since I’ve always had a soft spot for ladybugs.  They are one of the very, very few bugs out there that I will actually allow to crawl on my hand.  I don’t know about you guys, but I’m a bit squeamish around crawly things.  (Maybe it stems from some bad experiences with cockroaches when I was living in New York)  But sweet lil ladybugs? They’re my friends. 🙂 [...]

BUTTONS the Mouse FREE pattern!

By amy On April 4, 2014 · 17 Comments
I’ve been wanting to release a freebie for quite some time now!  I intended to coincide the release of this mouse pattern with my goal of hitting 3000 likes on my Facebook page, but I’m a bit behind schedule!   My baby owl pattern came out to thank you all for my reaching 1500 likes, so I thought it fitting to have another pattern at 3000!  (Hmm I’ll have to start planning for a super special pattern for if I ever reach 5000!  If you’re interested, spread the word!) I was told that a mouse is the most common crocheted [...]

Spencer the Fishing Kitty

  Well, Spring is officially here and it’s about time that I made another entry!  I know that there are folks in other parts of the world that are still enduring snow, but here in northern California, it’s been blue skies and warm weather for a little while now!  The buds are blooming, the birds are singing, what’s not to love about this time of year?  I’m ready for some mental Spring Cleaning and I am feeling inspired to create some fresh and new Little Muggles patterns for you all! For my Facebook followers, you’ve already seen pictures of my [...]

Happy New Year!

By amy On January 25, 2014 · 1 Comment
  Another year, another zodiac animal! As you can see, it’s going to be the Year of the Horse!! if you’re a horse, you are turning 0, 12, 24, 36, 48, 60, 72, 84, 96, or 108!  🙂  I can’t think of anyone I know that has this sign… “Horse” people are supposedly pleasant, and easy-going.  They’re extroverts and are full of good humor-he or she is usually the life of the party!  They are also supposed to be very frank and direct, almost to the point of tactlessness.  Does this fit the personality traits of any of your “Horse” [...]

Happy Holidays 2013

By amy On December 19, 2013 · 1 Comment
 Well, it’s hard to believe that another year is winding down once again! Why does it seem like each year goes more quickly than the last?  It must be the hourglass effect…maybe I feel this way because I’m getting older and older.  My birthday is later this month and it’s a milestone birthday. I will politely neglect to share exactly which one but it’s a milestone nonetheless. 🙂   I might joke about not wanting to get older, but I am truly grateful to be here for each new year.  There have been quite a number of very memorable amigurumi [...]

Asian Zodiac Animals

By amy On November 7, 2013 · 6 Comments
  I finally finished the 3 dolls that my friend commissioned me to make!  Each will be gifted this Christmas to a niece or nephew, and each represents the Asian Zodiac animal for his/her birth year.  What a neat idea, right?  I hope the kiddos like them!  I’ve always wanted to make all the Zodiac animals so this was a good motivator to get me going on this project.  I don’t foresee myself finishing all 12 animals anytime in the near future, but I think I’ve got a pretty good start already.  Let’s see, the 12 animals are the Rat, [...]
