Garters


Here are the garters I made I bought more material then I needed so I made three of them. I just had to join the seams and add ribbon and on one of them I did a buckle of some sort. The middle one has it if you look closer. This was so easy to make and much cheaper too. There are pink but she needed something blue.

Amigurumi to go Elephants

Aren't these elephants as cute as? The large elephant is one of the first ones, I made. I was so happy with the result.Then my youngest daughter saw it and wanted me to make her one. I made a smaller one for her. Actually it is the same pattern the larger one is done with two yarns and the smaller one with one yarn. I found this pattern from Sharon Ojala. She has lots of free patterns and cute ones too. I need to make the sock monkey I did the other monkey that she has as well. She has the videos to follow with her patterns it is great for beginners. I keep trying to challenge myself into making more difficult ones. So why don't you give it a go it is fun and rewarding seeing the toy that you just made.

Worm

I made this worm not sure if I made this from this pattern or my own. It has been sitting there for a while. I made lots of different sizes of spheres and I wanted to use them up. The idea of the finished toy is definitely from Lilleliis's pattern. I have been thinking to finish it like the glow worm. I bought the pattern from Lilleliis. I made a bug with wings which I posted already. I added a flower to it because I wanted it to look slightly different. Easy to make as well. I had the eyes done from previous toy and I wanted to use them. I am trying not to leave things undone. I have a large box full of wool and I would like to buy new wool so I would like to get rid of this old wool first. I think any crafty person would end up with so much stuff in the process. She will buy stuff that she thinks she will use and leave it there. OH here is the worm guys.

Hippo

I have made this hippo from revelry website. It was hard to make the nostrils I wasn't macthing so I gave up few months back. I decided to give it another go. I was a stitch more so I worked around it. The rest of it is pretty straight forward. Yes I think any experienced person used to make amigurumi can make this beautiful hippo. I like how it looks like the real thing. here are some photos of it. I reckon it took me twelve hours to make.

My wiggly worm

I made this worm from the sphere free patterns. I used the sphere sizes 22 and 26. I made it for my grandson. I didn't plan or pinned how to join the balls so I wasn't very happy with how it came. Lesson learnt and also it is very hard to unpick my work. I had to make another head cause I ripped it. The eyes were looking down and I didn't like it. I used pastel colors and am happy with the choice of colors. It is a cuddly toy so let's see how my grandson will react to it. Usually when I show him a toy he smiles. He is turning one so he is only little. Here is a picture of it. You should give it a try.
