My secret santa gift
They say that you can look back at the previous year until the end of January. If that’s the case, I’m totally going to ignore that rule, since I’m a little behind with my overviews of 2017. I still have at least 4 posts under way, but that’s not the reason for this post. In this post, I want to…

Gus the knight
One of my colleagues became mom to a little boy named Gus last November. The announcement featured this tough-looking knight. So when I got to test a pattern for a knight doll for Annelies from Vicarno , I already knew to whom I was going to give my knight. I’ve finished my doll a while back, but I was not…

But before the big reveal, a little background 😉 Kitty was made for my godmother. She asked me to make her another amigurumi – I had…

Blub blub blub
After finishing the ripple blanket and the cerulean half granny square, I still had some scraps of the wool left. So, to stay in the sea/ocean theme, I crocheted this amigurumi fish. This is a very easy pattern to crochet. It’s freely available from this blog here. No sewing is required for this fish, as the fins are crocheted by…
