Making Different Amigurumi noses!
Here’s a little sneak peek! Ok so I will be releasing the Fantasy collection soon but this is just some behind the scenes of what I have been doing. Just so you know, I am also in the midst of coming up with some guide on amigurumi noses so these are just SOME of the nose examples I have made before.
Free Hobbit Crochet Pattern!
Hey guys another free pattern has landed! This little guy has a special place in my heart, he is Pippin! My sister’s favourite hobbit and quite possibly the silliest hobbit! Making the hair for these little guys were pretty challenging and I would not say I am the most satisfied with them but this is some of my earliest work!
7 Tips for Crocheting with Shiny Yarn
If you have ever considered just trying out shiny yarn, maybe for crocheting and for amigurumis, I have some tips and suggestions for you! Especially if you have never used it before.

So these are some of my tips and tricks (after a fair bit of destroyed yarn) to dealing with shiny yarn:
7 steps to Bending a Wire into a Mini Sword
Technically not a crochet tutorial but a craft wire tutorial! It is for accessorizing our amigurumis, which I love to do! This time, it’s about making Aragorn’ sword using some simple craft wires. I used the same method to make a trident for Aquaman and a pair of sai for Elektra, as you will see later on!

For the next collection I’m releasing, I did attempt to try a few more animal positions to try out in my woodland creatures so stick around to check that out.
