Warrior Penguin

When we were in Las Vegas, little Merrick asked me if I would make him a penguin.

Like any good Grammy–of course I said, “Anything for you my darling.”  Yes, that’s just how I talk. Haha.

Once I was nearly finished with the little guy, Merrick asked for one more thing.

He asked if I could make it a Warrior Penguin with armor…

and could he have a sword…

that he can really hold?

I said, “Hmmmm, why yes. I bet I could.”

Love you Merrick.

   

 

Note: The basic pattern I used for this is Pin the Penguin by Vesnianka Patterns on Etsy

A Blue Heeler Pup

If you have little people around, even sometimes, it’s quite likely that you’re familiar with this little cartoon creature.

 Her name is Bluey.

In fact, this little Blue Healer puppy is so popular that my little granddaughter–Miss Fluttershy– tries to talk like her, and play games like her and…. ummmm…wag her….ummm…tail like her. She even had a Bluey birthday party with all the trimmings.

So, when I found this pattern online at Monoxa Crochet Toys I was really excited to try it. I changed a few things–just because I wanted to–but it turned out just like I hoped it would.

I believe it was a hit. I can just see our girl smiling and…

wagging her tail. 

Hee hee.

Skitty

Another birthday we have this month is our little month is our sweet little Lily. She asked if I could make the Pokemon character named Skitty for her. There are some really clever people in this world–and I’m not one to reinvent the wheel…so to speak. So, I found the perfect pattern at Sabrina’s Crochet. Thanks Sabrina, for saving me time–and well, just saving me–if you know what I mean.

Yeah, I know. Pokemon are very strange creatures. But this one wasn’t so bad, in fact it was dang fun…

and not nearly as weird as some of them that I’ve seen.

Thank Heaven no one has asked me to make something, you know… creepy.

But then, I’m not finished yet.

Haha.

Mystic Mermaid Cocoon

Mystic-Mermaid-Cocoon-2

Have you EVER seen anything so adorable in your life?!!

I found this sweet little fishy baby on b.hooked crochet and I just keep staring and staring at it. The pattern is there for FREE too. And you know what I say…you can’t beat free.

If only I knew someone who was having a baby girl soon.

Oh, wait…

I do.

That Pretty Little Snowflake

A very popular post from a while back is the Snowflake Potholder. Since that time, we’ve had lots of people make the pattern as well.

Joyce's potholder

Look at this lovely one that my friend Joyce made. It’s the perfect project for a cool Autumn evening. If you decide to try one yourself- or any other project you find on GraciousRain, for that matter– I hope you’ll share it with us by emailing the photo to me at launikanderson@gmail.com.

I’ll love it. You’ll love it. And if it gets posted, we can ALL love it!
