A little of this and that

First up is this amigurumi I started last week. He is huge and I ran out of yarn to give him arms. I was just playing around and trying to figure things out so he is a bit wonky.

I made this little guy with what was left of the yarn.

I went to Webs today for the first time and got some pretty yarn along with this super soft and pretty roving. I have only spun up a little of it so far and I’m loving how it looks. I have also managed to mostly keep the yarn the same thickness so I’m super happy about that.

I have also started playing around with all of the soda tabs that I have been collecting. At first I started weaving ribbon through them until I ran out, then I made a 6×6 square with jump rings. Not sure what I’m doing with anything just yet but here’s what I’ve got so far.

What I’ve been doing

Bad me, I’ve fallen a little behind in updating my blog. I have been doing more crafty things lately so have quite a few pics to share.
I made a dragon egg to use as a prop with my dolls, and maybe something else…

I have been making icord with threads that are too fuzzy to do much else with. Right now I have started to make something with them, probably a rug, but we’ll see. I’m using the Embelish Knit tool I got at Joanns for $5 on clearance. It makes them very fast!


I hand sew this one. Deciding on which color to attach next.

A bracelet.

My first pair of earrings.

And I finally go around to trying to make an amigurumi! I am very happy with how this little birdie turned out. I did not use any pattern for this but watched a video on Youtube on how to work in the round and do inc/decs. I am a new crocheter so this took a few times before I finally got it.
