food, crochet, merriment
Ok, this is getting a little more challenging…
but still…
so DANG fun!! I love sorting out all the patterns and personalities of the kitties with each one being so awesome and specific.
I’m starting to look at cats a lot more closely now.
They are all so unique and lovely, but my crochet brain is turning them all into YARN!!!
Occupational hazard, I suppose.
Apparently, I have one volunteer already!!
Ohhh Dali….
A friend of a friend saw a few of the kitties that I made for the Farmer’s Market and asked if I could make one that looked like…
their very own kitty.
You know me…
I said, “Ummmm…yeah.”
And so…
down to the spots on the legs…
I did my best.
They were happy.
I was happy.
Not sure what the kitty thinks.
Oh, well.
Heh, heh.
Oooooh, our BYU team is doing GREAT this year!!!
So great, in fact, that I was totally inspired to make this cute little fellow right here.
In case you aren’t from around these parts…
and don’t recognize…
this dude…
his name is COSMO!!
Go BYU!!
Go to my Gracious Rain Shop on Esty to find this and other awesome stuff!
My sweet granddaughter had a huge, stuffed Appa (From Avatar- The Last Airbender) on her birthday list. It was like a large pillow of the famous Flying Bison.
I could have gotten it for her, in fact, I almost did.
But then…
I found a pattern and I just couldn’t help myself.
I simply HAD to make it.
I honestly wasn’t sure if it would be a big mess…
or turn out…
incredible.
What I do know, is that it was one of the most fun projects that I’ve made in a long, long time.
Another thing I found out was that when you work really hard on something, for days and days, you run the risk of getting incredibly attatched to it.
Yeah, this one was hard to wrap up and put in the box.
Luckily, I love this girlie even more than furry little Appa.
Annnnnnd…
she ADORED him!!
That always helps.
Happy Birthday Kiddo. I love you.
Original pattern from Darling
Jillian and Rhen came to help me set up which made all this possible.
Here we go!!!
It turned out to be a lovely day.
This really could be my kind of thing.
