Wayuu crochet bag

I am making all these bags to have variety in my shop. I love making them for now. I usually don' t like making the same thing for many times as I get bored making them. I find with crochet you can making so many fantastic stuff. I used to love sewing for as long as I remember but since I started to crochet again because I did few things in crochet before like blankets throw rugs that I can't let it go. I have been almost three years crocheting every single day and every time I have chance to. I made so many things that I didn't think I could do. It all started because I wanted to make a soft toy for my grandson. My love for sewing is gone I feel upset about that. Can you love two kinds of hobbies at once? I wonder. My artistic in me was spread on many painting, sewing, newspaper baskets,weaving crocheting, anything I saw I had to give it a go. Not anymore though crochet is the thing that I like to do now. I lost track about the bag I made this time I like the colours I chose for it. The pattern wasn' t that hard to do either. This is the right bag size not too big and not too small. Handy for mothers, teenagers anyone really. I found the pattern from pinterest love this site for inspirations and patterns. I know there is also bloglovin. Anyway you can see the bag I made.

Boy's hair clips

I was inspired to make boy's hair clips because of my grandson. He was born with such lovely hair that it is a waist to cut it off. It was strange for me at first seeing him with long hair. I was asking my daughter when she was going to take him for a hair cut. She told me she wasn't so I quit telling after some time and started to live with seeing him having long hair. At first she was cutting his fringe because it was always in his eyes but now she wants to grow it for him, that was when we decided to make boy's clips. We tried to make the clips of the animals or stuff he likes. He definitely likes the bees and we haven't shown him the other new ones yet. They take awhile to make and they are fiddly when it is handmade. I together with my daughter made them out of felt and embroidery thread. Here are our creations. Once you start making them you become to be more creative.

My doll

I've been wanting to make a doll with my own pattern but I always loose the way. I start well and if I unpick that's it. I wanted to make it close to real as possible. I tried to make knees,elbows and chest. I still have to improve around the shoulders. It is not finished yet but I will let you see where I am up to. I still have to do more work to it. I have been working on it every night. I am still thinking how I want her mouth to look like. If I will attach the lips or embroider her lips. I need to do something about her shoes as well add purple and blue to it. I will glue some eye lashes to this doll too. She looks kind of angry with those eyes. I tried to sculpt her face I think I made her look worse.I always challenge myself in trying new stuff . It is not always successful. My dream is to make a pattern of my very own. Maybe I should try simpler toy. The problem with me is I am not creative at all but if I see something I can copy it. I still wish to come up with my cute little toy. I put eye lashes on and embroidered her lips. They came better then I expected. I should get a better needle for that kind of job. I also added frills to her socks and made shoes to match her dress. I know, I know head is bigger in proportion to her body but I wasn't going to make another head.

MY Oopsie doll

My oopsie doll I enjoyed making this doll very much. I loved making the curls it took a whole ball of yarn for it. I enjoyed making the skirt of the dress. The pattern was very easy to follow.It took me three days working strictly all afternoons. I am having trouble making the bow, would you believe it? I tried three times already. Haven't given up yet. I can always contact Vanja from Amigurumi BB, the generous lady, who made the pattern and share it. Isn't she wonderful. How I came to make this doll is I was looking to see how a type of her is done.  I liked the hairdo of this doll and decided to do it. I love this doll her boots looks very nice. Here is a picture of my lovely Oopsie doll. I had trouble making her bow but managed after three attempts or four. You can never give up I guess on things.

My lovely puppies

Hi everyone! who is interested in making one of these puppies. I made this from a lovely lady who shared it for free. It is not hard to make. Give it a try and you'll see how easy it is. I enjoyed making these dogs, and the combinations of colors is great. They are so cute that it is very hard to part from them. I included eyelids on the pink and blue puppies.I also put paws on the brown dog to see how it will look. See for yourself.

Amigurumi large doll

 I added the nose and ears. Amazingly it didn't take me very long to make it. It is the largest thing that I've done so far.
