Stretching Cat

This cat loves yoga! It can stay in its favourite position literally for hours! It’s made as one piece from the nose to the tip of the tail so you don’t have to worry about limbs falling away if your child loves their new toy too much.

The pattern is available here: https://www.etsy.com/listing/1320640623

Abby The Horse Amigurumi Pattern

This amigurumi pattern took me a lot of time.  I wanted to make a crocheted horse that would match Barbie’s proportions but then I realized that it would have to be really big! So that final version is actually more a pony that a horse. But you can always use thicker yarn and bigger hook to make a “real” horse for your doll.

This amigurumi horse can be done almost seamlessly. Only ears and the mane need to be sewed to the body. The pattern itself is a challenge even for experienced crafters (actually, it is challenging even for me) – you really need to focus if you want it to be pretty and symmetrical!

The doll on pictures is Momoko – she is slightly shorter than a regular Barbie.

PART II

 

It is been a while since I posted the previous part of my Celestia tutorial. It is time to fix it! Today I will show you how to crochet the tail and mane.

All you need is to follow the chart below. Start with 48+3 chain stitches. Make eight pieces – two of each color (green, pink, turquoise and violet).

Now sew those pieces to the head and the bum as shown in the picture below.

PART III (Mane & Tail) is also available.

Today I will show you how to make Celestia’s eyes.

Eyes should be crocheted with thread which is 4 times thinner than the thread used for the body. I use YarnArt Jeans for the body and it is a yarn that can be untwisted into four thinner threads so I just untwist it and use a single thread.

untwisting

 

This is how I make both eyes:

Start with a magic ring and make the first row in black, the second and third in purple, and the fourth in white. Leave long thread ends (you will need them to sew eyes to the head).

After you finish both eyes, use white thread end to embroider white highlights. Then sew eyes to Celestia’s head and embroider black borders and eyelashes as shown in picture below. The borders should be embroidered with a full-thick thread. Check the chart below to see where the seams should go.

Seamless Owl Amigurumi Pattern

This little cute amigurumi owl differs a lot from my other crochet patterns. First of all, it has colors! Besides that, it is relatively easy to make. It is of course seamless.

I used four-hole black buttons to make eyes and sew them to the head with white thread to imitate highlights.

I am thinking about adding a loop and using those owls as Christmas ornaments.

Amigurumi Bunny Pattern for Easter or Springtime

Today I would like to show you Pixie, a friendly and curious little rabbit. It is almost seamless, only its tail is sewn to the body. I already have one bunny in my amigurumi patterns shop, but this time I wanted to design something more realistic though still simple.

The bunny stands on its own. Its forelegs are sewn together which means that it can “hold” something if you want – a single flower or maybe a carrot?

I think it will be a perfect idea for Easter/Springtime home decor.
