What I've Been Making

Blogspot doesn't want to upload my photos again, so I'm trying to do it HTML stylie through Flickr. I hope they come out ok!

I've been quite busy on the crochet front lately - I have several things on the go at once and it seems as soon as I've finished one thing there's something else waiting to be made! About 2 weeks ago I got an 'order' from one of my Aunties friends - she likes Shaun and Timmy The Sheep and wondered whether I could make her one of each. I didn't have a clue where to start making sheep, but thankfully I found a great pattern on Ravelry for Shaun! So I made him first - took me about a week, then I adapted the pattern slightly to make Timmy. Here they are - about to be sent off...

Next up was a really cute dragon I'd seen a pattern for on Etsy, by Sofiasobeide. I love him! I called my version Puff lol!

You can also see my pet fishie Kryten in the second photo lol! *waves*

I really liked this pattern - it was nice and clear and easy to read and follow. I'd love to make another dragon - maybe a girl dragon in pink yarn? So he can have a friend *aawwww!*.

Next up will probably be a pattern I'm working on for Happy Pills! I've already made the 'pattern', but need to make a few more actual 'pills'. When I'm finished with them I'm gonna put the pattern up on this blog so others can benefit from the Happy Pills! We all need a Happy Pill every now and again!

Stupid Blogspot

Blogspot is being stupid again and not letting me upload any photos. Does anyone else ever have this problem?!

Anyways, hope everyone had a nice weekend. I've been carrying on with the diet - I've lost almost half a stone! Yay! Though last week I hadn't lost anything so I'm making myself go out for a walk everyday now. I'm gonna get ready to go after I've typed this up actually. If it doesn't rain.

I've been asked to crochet a Shaun and Timmy The Sheep for a friend of my aunties - so that's what I've been up to on the crochet front lately. I've nearly finished Shaun _ I just have 2 legs to go and to attach the eyes, which are either going to be big googly eyes or felt - I haven't decided yet. Then it's on to Timmy. I've also started crocheting a blue and white Jellyfish for a friends baby that is due soon. I hope she'll like it!

The Monsties have been posted off to the winners. I didn't do it on Friday as I didn't go out in the end, so my Mum posted them off this morning; hopefully they should be arriving soon. I hope they all arrive safely, and that you're happy with them!

That's about all. I'll keep trying with the photos. Stupid Blogspot. I'm off for a walk.
