Jack the Scarecrow

No Comments

I saw a really cute scarecrow pattern here Crochet – Scarecrow & Pumpkin – #EC00294 (e-patternscentral.com) and decided that would be an easy project to take with me traveling to see Jackie (my mother-in-law) last fall. I picked up the yarn and packed it to go. I started working on it at Jackie’s house when we weren’t out and about on the magical island of Nantucket. Jackie got the biggest kick out of watching “Jack” come to life. I finished him while we were on the island and brought him home with me. As it turned out, Jackie passed away a couple of weeks later. It was at that point that I christened him “Jack” in her honor. I hadn’t intended to keep this one, but that all changed. Now Jack lives in our house forever.

Matilda the Traveling Doll

Matilda lived up to her name! I found this pattern at Crochet Premium Bundle – Karmalek© and just wanted to give it a try. Christmas was coming up and Molly had a great niece who was just the right age for a new doll. I made several outfits for her and had a blast creating her!!

Pandemic Santa

Well, 2020 was the start of the pandemic and ruined many things for many people. But, Santa was not deterred. He showed up, fully masked of course, and even brought toilet paper for the masses!

My daughter gave me a crochet book for Christmas last year that has lots of parent and baby duos. This is the one I chose to create first, because, penguins. I don’t know what it is about penguins, but they are just completely adorable!

The Dolly Llama

No Comments

I’ve made three of these guys now and they are fun to make! Each one was a little bit different. The pattern is a free pattern from Red Heart Llama-No-Drama | Yarnspirations. The first one I made as a gift for my niece, Sally, who likes llamas, the second one for for one of my great niece’s birthday (Jacqueline).

The last one was for the great grandchild of one of my families’ oldest friends, Saundra (Sam). She sent a picture requesting colors to match this color scheme. You can see the blanket colors chosen from this pallet here.

This can be made baby-friendly without the plastic safety eyes. She was nicknamed the “Dolly Llama” and I like that name!
