Bruna the Bunny

During my last holiday I was asked to crochet a cuddly toy. Oh well, I thought, why not. I hadn't enjoyed crocheting that much for a long time. The last couple of months I put something away after a few rounds and never finished it. But this time it was different. Maybe it was the holiday and the fact that I didn't have any other plans. And of course the nice pattern helped too. I found the pattern of the bunny here. You can find the pattern of the mushroom here. I only made the stem a bit shorter and filled the top with a little bit of fyberfill. This bunny is going to its new owner and in the meantime I'm already working on a few other toys. And I'm really enjoying it!

 

I'm working on a new granny square blanket. Love to work with all colors and scraps of yarn. For more info about how I make this blanket click here.

Million Stitches Blanket Afghan Crochet Tutorial How To Pattern

Million Stitches Crochet blanket 

The tutorial is rally a how to make this blanket, once the foundation rows are set the blanket is worked continuously and can be made to any size that you wish so 30" x 30" or 60" 60"

I have made the blanket twice using all 4 ply and sock yarn but the pattern would work with sport, dk, aran eights with the appropriate crochet hook. By using sock yarn the drape of the blanket is wonderful.

This is the ultimate 'scrappy project' for crocheters and is also a fabulous stash buster. I will be offering assorted colours of sock yarn in 10g amounts in packs of 10, 20 & 50 (100g, 200g & 500g)

This blanket is suitable for beginners, intermediate and advanced crocheters alike.

Enjoy the blanket and the slow crochet - it's a lot of work but very much worth it.

This beautiful tree was outside our room

When it's cold outside...

Here in Germany it's very cold at the moment and my daughter has been complaining that her beanie is not helping her keep warm enough. After looking at Pinterest for some ideas and trying out a 'moss stitch' in crochet, I came up with this simple hoody.

It fits her well and protects her neck as well as a bit of her cheeks which is a bonus. of course it had to be done in pinks and purples. Oh that daughter of mine!
