Don't talk to me or my son ever again!

I've been really enjoying season 2 of Bee and PuppyCat since it landed on Netflix a couple of weeks ago, and I wanted to try and make a bigger, fluffier version of my free PuppyCat pattern!

This guy is made with a bulky weight chenille yarn I bought at my local Spotlight for the white fuzzy bits (Bella Baby - Baby Chenille) and some DK yarn doubled up for the brown, since I can't seem to find this colour in chenille anywhere. I crocheted the regular pattern with a 6mm crochet hook - and you can see the difference the chunkier yarn and hook make! The smaller version is made with DK yarn and a 3mm crochet hook.

You can find the pattern here!

Kazuha draft version 1! I’m so happy with how this turned out, I don’t think there’ll be much difference for the final version - I did forget to add the other sleeve from his haori at the back though, so I’ll need to fix that up.

Kazuha is my favourite Genshin character at the moment, so of course I had to start with him, but I’m hoping to add a bunch more, especially before Brisbane Supanova rolls around in November!

Kits are now available in the shop! I did a small run of Groot’s last year (which I’m hoping to restock soon!) and had a few available at Supanova, which were a great success.

The kits come in 3 options: 1. materials only, if you already have crochet hooks and needles, etc. 2. Materials plus you can add a simple crochet hook, or 3. all tools - this one comes with a fancy handle for the hook, plus some pins, a needle and some stitch markers to get you set for all your crochet projects, perfect for beginners!

All of the Eeveelutions are available at the moment and hopefully I can add some more designs in the future, who would you like to see?

I’ve been working on these for a little while, but now we’ve only got 67 days until Supanova! I’m really hoping to bring some new designs, and so that means new content for the blog 🤩

Been busy getting some new glamour shots for the starter gang! I like the simple pastel background, but I think maybe it needs some little subtle props here and there 🧐

Meet Charlotte the Sloth! 🥰 The pattern is finally ready! I feel like it took me a lot longer to put this together than it usually does, but when I was looking at the finished document and how many images were there I realised why 😂 This pattern has some slightly more complex features but there are plenty of pictures and descriptions so it should still be a fine project for beginners! 

You can follow the pattern free on the website.

Or if you prefer an ad-free printable PDF, you can purchase one over on my Etsy or Ravelry.

I’m so happy with how she turned out, I hope you love her as much as me!

Anytime there’s new Dragon Age news I’m just sitting here 🤡 I’m ready

In honour of the new title reveal, here’s the man himself. My collection is still missing a few characters, so will the over a year wait for the next game give me enough time to finish them? At my current pace of new patterns probably not, but let’s stay optimistic! With each new tidbit of news the beast is fed haha.

It’s been a while since I had physical dolls available in my shop but I’ve just added all of the Pokemon starters, Eeveelutions and Pikachu as a made to order item in my Etsy store!

I think I have a good enough handle on my time these days to start making them again, so if you’ve ever wanted to nab one now’s your chance!

A little something I’m working on at the moment! I promised myself at the start of the year that I was going to try and do a few more original characters (don’t worry - I have plenty of plans for new patterns of our favourite not-mine characters too!) 

This is a little sloth gardener! I still have some accessories and details to fine tune, but I love her so far!

Just haanging with the gaang. Okay I'll stop haha. I love doing group shots when the group is a colourful bunch, so the Avatar group is perfect for this! My favourite is Sokka, cause I'm a sucker (ha) for a good pun.

You can grab the patterns for these guys over on my Etsy

A little Grogu I made recently for a friend! It’s not very often that I crochet items made with other people’s patterns (I’m usually too distracted trying to work on new designs), but this was a lot of fun, so I think I’ll try to do more of it!

The pattern is from the wonderful @beefriendscrochet and is available on Ravelry here!

I’ve had a Miles Morales version of Spiderman on my to do list forever, but I finally got motivated to finish him after watching the latest movie! I still think Into the Spider-verse is my favourite of all time, so I had to base his costume off that version. I think I’ll have to make him a little jacket as well.

Pattern coming soon!

I loved the Black Widow movie, and knew I had to do a bit of a refresh on the costume. I'm getting back into the swing of things so you're going to be seeing a lot more from me! There are so many great Marvel characters to catch up on and fill out the roster! Who should I work on next?

The pattern is available in the shop now here!

An oldie but a goodie! I’ve still been lurking around in the background but it’s been a while since I was active around here. I’m going through and remaking a bunch of my old patterns to get back into the swing of things and finally have some dolls to keep for myself. First up on the roster is Pikachu!

Free pattern available on my website | Video tutorial over on Youtube
