How to Curl Yarn
I recently got to make my very first couple set, a bride and a groom. My client was a recently engaged bride to be and fell in love with my dolls on Facebook. She wanted a bride and groom set to have for her upcoming wedding as a gift for her future husband and decoration at their wedding. For such a special occasion, I wanted to make sure she received exactly what she wanted so I made sure to ask her about everything from the dress shape to the hair color. She wanted a big ball gown dress (excellent choice), and brown hair for both the bride and groom. She…

FREE PATTERN – Island Girl
I love the movie Moana. It makes me laugh, it makes me cry, and I feel like the overall message of the movie is super powerful. I am glad that Disney has created another female lead that is strong and independent (like Mulan, Tiana, and Merida). When I first started crocheting, Moana was always my go to background movie, or background music, so it was only appropriate that I created a pattern for her! I have made Moana several times, and she is definitely my favorite pattern to crochet. She is fairly simple, using just a few colors and simple stitches. She just requires a bit of patience (especially for the hair).…

How To Crochet Amigurumi Skirt Shapes
When crocheting and creating patterns, it is important to understand why and how to create different shapes. When it comes to the princess skirt, they are usually big and billowy, like a ballgown, or they are loose, like a modern dress. To create these different shapes is simple, but can make the difference when creating a look. I have written a 2 super basic patterns here for ballgown and straight skirts, as well as a pattern for the base of the skirt. When I am designing a pattern I always go back to these basic shapes, I use different colors or vary the size, but the structure of the pattern…

FREE PATTERN – Guppy Fish
This week has been nothing but craziness trying to get this finished and edited and formatted. But I did it! It is really finished and I am so excited to share this with you all! Since it is MerMay I figured it would be appropriate for my first pattern to be Mermaid inspired, or rather, what inspired the Mermaid! A cute little fish is a mermaid’s best friend, and we all could use a few extra loyal fiends in out lives, even if they do live under the sea. The first time I made my little Guppy Fish was as a Birthday/Thank you gift for my friend who takes my…

How I Started Crocheting
It is important to get the whole story when getting to know a person. Most likely if you are reading this you have seen my Instagram which is full of pictures of my recent work. But I didn’t start by making my own patterns, or even making dolls for that matter. So let me start at the beginning. When I graduated college and moved out on my own, I realized I had all this free time and all this stress. I was working three part time jobs, all involving customer service and none having to do with what I had spent 4 years studying in school. I was lost. I needed something…
