Tiny Crochet Stocking

I made a Mini Crochet Acorn for Autumn to wear as a badge at work. It's holiday season soon so a change of badge is necessary. Here is my new mini stocking badge it's approx. 1 inch x 1 inch.

Crochet Medium Totoro

Totoro seems very popular among my friends at the moment, I have now made a total of 4 of them. It's a good job I love Totoro! A friend at work asked for a smaller version of my 23cm tall Totoro, but not quite as tiny as Chibi Totoro. This Totoro is 12cm tall and very adorable:




Bum! 

The pattern I used was really made for Chu Totoro (the medium blue one) but I think it works well. Find the pattern here click click. Hopefully my friend will like him.

Tiny Crochet Daisy

I had a very unplanned trip 'home' to my parents town this weekend. I was very unprepared to be visiting family and I wanted to give them a little something. Luckily, being a crochetaholic, I took two of my current small crochet projects with me. Using the yarn I brought I decided to whip up something small and quick for my two grandma's.

I spent a nice couple of hours of my morning crocheting two little dasies. I nearly forgot to take a picture, here is a quick snap I managed just before giving it away.


The pattern can be found here Click Click the pattern takes a little bit of interpretation. I suggest reading it through first unlike me - mistakes were made, frogging ensued. 

Hook off.

Tiny Crochet Elephant

My friend at work has been having a hard time. I recently found out she likes elephants so I had a gander online to find a tiny crochet elephant that I could whip up quickly as a cheer-me-up gift. I didn't expect the little chap to turn out so unbelievably adorable, I honesty struggled giving him up.



I placed the little guy in her lab coat pocket as a cheeky little surprise. She loves him and he is now named Henry. I miss you Henry! 

The amazing pattern can be found here click click.

Kaonashi (No-Face) Crochet Amigurumi

I have been really struggling to find the time to blog since I started uni again whilst simultaniously working fulltime. It is really difficult to find time to do anything else. My crafting has taken a really big hit, which is very depressing. But here is something I made a while ago now that I have a quiet moment to blog :).

After seeing my Ghibli based crafts someone requested for me to make Kaonashi (No-face). I figured it can't be that difficult. It's pretty much just a skittle shape with a face attached (ironically).


The body, as I thought, was very easy and simple to make. The face, however, was difficult for me. I have never in my life done any embroidery. -Insert my repeated annoyance at sewing-. I really struggled getting the features right and I had to find something I could follow/copy.

Then BAM Here's one that someone made earlier. This pattern is amazing, it has a mouth! Shame I didn't see this before I made No-Face's body.

So No-Face's face is just made of white felt and embroidery floss. It took me a while to do but it's good enough for me. See more of my Ghibli projects Here.
