Lola

This amigurumi is from a video on youtube but I changed it so much that you can hardly tell it is from that pattern. Her body, head and hands are from the video. It is her eyes that were suppose to be very big and stuck with glue and I don't think that is safe for kids. I rather embroidered them and I also made a nose. I never separated the yarn for the hair so I will never do that again. I will have to separate the yarn at least in half. It looses strength when you separate the yarn into 4 so I will try in half at least. I added lashes as well. I liked how it turned up. I should try a bit of blush in her cheeks and knees she will look better.

Amigurumi boy blue

I started from a pattern but I kept doing it as I go. I do feel like not follow a pattern sometimes. It is a large doll and his hair makes him cool. I embroidered his eyes with embroidery thread. I usually use wool but I wanted to see how it comes out. His hands are movable. There are no wires stuffed well near the head. I like how cuddly he is. I might make him removable clothes. I have a few things that I need to finish first, he can stay like this for awhile. I hate when I keep starting things and because I ran out of the wool  need I will stat something else. His hair took some time to make I separated the yarn as well other wise it will be very booffy.

Amigurumi ant

I love this amigurumi ant. It is not an English pattern. It is Russian I think but a free patttern too. I am sure there were some instructions which I couldn't understand so I used my logic of how I think it should be. This one I incorporated wires in the hands and feet. I embroidered the eyes as I tried to crochet them and they were turning out to be very big for the face. I saw one that had striped top it looked nicer then just plain colour yarn. I like the way his tongue is between his mouth. I have learnt new technic making this ant. I love how it turned out but if I make another one  will have  to put wires so it can hold itself better. Still very pleased with the result.

Amigurumi Molly doll

I have been seeing this Molly doll often enough to finally make one. I always seem to change it to make it my own. So I changed the eyes the dress and the beanie. I like the way it turned up. I also didn't make any wires so it is child safe. I also didn't make shoe laces. I love her face it turned out pretty good. You can give it a try ladies and put your mark like I did to make it your own. It is a free pattern from pinterest.

Amigurumi doll

I called this one a clown doll it is a pattern that I bought a couple of years ago. I wish it was larger and I had made another one like this one before. The pattern is easy to follow is pretty good to follow she has photo instructions. I think she is too short like me lol. I could have added more straight rows in the middles somewhere. If you look on pinterest you can find this doll and the lady who designed it,cause I can't remember exactly her name. I used different colour purples to use up some of my yarns. No wires so it will be safe for kids if you sew this doll properly.

Amigurumi doll

This time I followed a lady on you tube to make this doll. She called it bag charm doll or something within those words. I think she is Suwanna craft's room. She is a cute doll she made it out of cotton so her doll would be smaller then mine. I made mine out of acrylic yarn. Her hair is the first time I did it this way but no harm in trying new technics. I sometimes rather follow the pattern it is quicker then you tube. I decreased one row in her shoe I like it that way and a row of increase in her hat I thought it was coming out too big and it would have been. I also made different trim on the skirt then hers. In this doll I learnt how to attach her hair. I didn't attach the hat to the head.  Anyway good luck with yours if you have a go

Amigurumi Unicorn

Very popular these days for people to buy unicorn but I made one not too thrilled about it. I liked the sleeping unicorn, it is a free pattern. I am hard on myself I think it is not perfect. The feet might not be perfectly positioned and will annoy me. I have more white wool which I might make another look of a unicorn.I will have to find another free pattern. It is really good way to use some co,oured scraps of yarn for the mane and tail. I can't seem to find a toy big enough for a girl or boy to cuddle up they are always very small.
