Love bear This one was a gift for a special friend who needed some love. We all put something in to make a care package and this was my contribution. The pattern has a lot of smaller parts that you then sew on to form the bear. I don't like using hard eyes, so I used crochet to make these ones bigger rather than just embroidery detail.

3100 double crochet in green but I've decided to put that one on hold and started my grey because I haven't decided how big to make the green yet.

Grey is in single crochet.

Plush butterfly I made this butterfly as a gift for a friend from work. You may have already noticed many other butterfly themed projects on my blog, since we have decorated the kindy room with them, why not one more for a birthday present?! I found parts of this to be a little fiddly but it was otherwise not too bad to make. Free pattern to download

School scrunchies I had an order for scrunchies to make one in the school colours. This is what I came up with. I enjoy doing these scrunchies and they are one of the few things I've actually bothered to try and sell. See the Pattern idea on a previous blog post.

Crazy hairtie Instead of putting colour in my hair, when crazy hair day came up I decided to try to make something to wear. I combined a bunch of different things together to come up with this idea. The top is just brushed out yarn using a cat brush. It is attached to a regular hairtie. The dangling bits use some of the pattern from the wind spinners I posted before, but a smaller version. And then just basic pompoms at the bottom.

Crochet doughnut This was one part of a birthday present I made for my friend. She has been dieting (and doing an incredible job!) and I have been a terrible influence on her! So I figured if she isn't eating real doughnuts, why not give her a fake one so she isn't missing out so much? (Because that's how it works, right?) I googled patterns and came up with this one. Link below. Link to free pattern

Butterfly wind spinner It's been a whole week since I've posted about butterflies! I wanted some simple decorations I could create pretty fast to add more colour and butterflies to the Kindy room so I googled and came up with these wind spinners! I made them with enough length to look nice without the children being able to reach them to pull them down!

Scarf time! When I'm not making butterflies, changes are I'm making a scarf! This one was specifically requested by a loved family member who volunteers at a zoo. She picked the colour so it was similar to her uniform there. I was delighted to find a new brand of yarn that was both cheaper and softer than what I generally use. I thought this was going to be a game changer for me, but it was a limited time stock and now I'm disappointed!

Another crochet scarf!

Butterfly mobile You may have noticed that I've been making a lot of butterflies lately. Well, here are some more! I made several of these little butterflies, which I am fairly sure I posted earlier. They are a combination of research from other patterns and my own ideas. I don't even know what the stitch is called that I used. It's like a treble crochet but instead of warpping the yarn around the hook twice first, I wrapped it 3, 4 or 5 times (depending where I was in the pattern).

Another butterfly Just to keep going with the butterfly theme, I made this one as well. I have been searching for the pattern I used but cannot find it. I'm pretty sure it was one of those image/diagram patterns. While I like the butterfly, the wings were floppy and I had to pin them to the board just to stay up. I ended up only making the one.

Key pouch It was mentioned to me that someone was afraid their keys would destroy one of my tote bags so I decided to make this small pouch to put the keys in so they would not snag on the bag. I just made it up freehand as I went along, a mixture of double and single crochet to make the line patterns and then decreasing at the top so the keys wouldn't just fall out. I added an edging and a heart to the front.

Butterfly Cross Stitch Project Part 4: The finalΒ product Once all the hoops had their butterflies in them, I arranged them how I wanted them to be displayed. I used crochet chain stitches to hang them to a wooden rod and then made some crochet leaves to attach to them. I am quite happy with how this project turned out! It's now hanging in my kindy room.

Butterfly Cross Stitch Project Part 3: The Monarch-ishΒ Butterfly This was the largest of the hoops and I was pretty curious to use a larger range of colours to blend them into each other. I used a free pattern (linked below) and was pretty happy with how it turned out. Stay tuned for the final part of the project! Link to free pattern
