for the beautiful akasha boy hey.  he picked the colours :O

my ~latest creations~ all my scrap yarn are pastels, as i went through a period where i was making a ton of baby blankets and dolls for coworkers.  (which explains why i’m using these colours) i really want to redo that elephant, along with a donkey, in proper colours for the elections (republicans / democrats), but i need to buy some other yarn.  then i can stick pins in them >:| ~voodoo~ crochet :O

okay, so this was my first attempt at amigurumi and while my stitches could have been better (tighter), it still came out cute if i do say so myself i made the cats a toy using the pattern for the bunny head, stuffed it with catnip… they LOVE it.  plus, i managed to get the stitches tight enough on it, so now on to another pattern.

i’m using up all my spare yarn while learning to make these, so that i can buy all NEW yarn and have room for it.  i’ll take all the bunnies and stuff and donate them to one of the hospitals for kids.

got started on the unfinished blankie… had to remember which pattern i was using and where i’d left off in it :o considering it’s been a good 2.5 or 3 years since i last crocheted, it came back pretty quickly once i sat down to work on it, so this bodes well! i may actually get it finished!  i’m over halfway done, so shouldn’t be but a day or two depending upon how much i work at it. i’d forgotten how relaxing it can be worst thing about this particular blanket is all the colour switching :s all those loose ends flapping around :| i’ll fix that once i get to the edging, tho.

anyways, here tis ~in progress~
