I bought the pattern to make this amazing dragon by OvertonFancies on Etsy quite a while ago, but my first attempt was foiled by choosing a main body yarn that was discontinued shortly after the initial materials were purchased!

I'm thinking I'd like to take another crack at it, but I'm unsure of what colour my new dragon should be.

What are folks' thoughts? Facebook won't let me create a poll, so please comment below with your ideas!

So I am, quite often, really, really bad at remembering to take photos of my makes.
This is all I remembered to photograph of my Christmas crochet projects!

Toothless was a genuine labour of love - each claw and spike is an individual piece that had to be sewn on!
Purple Yoshi was a commission, and I'm so very happy with how it turned out!

I'm hoping to make better use of the page this year, and will be offering a couple of slots for crochet commissions soon, so please keep an eye out for that!

A huge thank you to everyone who asked for photos of, or with, the young dragonling. ❤️ And to those who asked for a page to tag, as it reminded me I have this page, lol!

I'll be expanding this page to include more puppet builds and crafting in the new year. Assuming I don't forget its existence yet again, lol.

Heh, it's been a hot minute since I made use of this page - oops!

I've still been crocheting, I'm just terrible at remembering to take photos and sharing them here it seems.

I've been doing other crafting projects over the past couple of years too, so I'll probably make another album to share those with folk as well.

Whilst I prefer to make plushies, my first foray into crochet was accessories and baby blankets.
I figured I'd share some of the accessories I've made here.

Over the past few years, I have discovered that I might be a LITTLE obsessed with making plushies.
I hope to make many, many more as my crochet skills grow.

I finished this little guy quite a while ago, but didn't post him because Scooby was a birthday present and I wanted him to be a surprise.

Well, he was gifted a month or so ago, and it is time to share him! I am so happy with how he turned out. Pattern is by ArteCrocheAtelie on Etsy

Quite a while ago, I bought a pattern bundle for elves, dwarves and halflings. I finally dug out the collection and tried my hand at one of the dwarves!

I'm really happy with how this turned out, and looking forward to making more. I'm toying with the idea of offering custom plushies based on people's LARP or D&D characters.
If that's something that might interest folk, please let me know!

Another recent project, this was made for one of our nieces. I don't think I'll use this particular pattern again - the dress required a few adjustments to the written pattern in order to cover the doll properly!

Continuing on the Easter projects, I started this one before Easter, but only finished it a couple of weeks ago.
I'm really happy with how it turned out. Super cute if I do say so myself!

A cute little hen! When I first put this together, I wasn't overly happy with the result. I put it aside and figured I'd try the duck pattern instead. Having left it for a few days, I find myself liking it a lot more.
I think it'll look good in a few different colours.
