Patterns, Patterns as Far as the Eye Can See!

Well, it's been a busy few months! I didn't mean to neglect this blog, but my everyday life got in the way more than I would have hoped.

But, that doesn't mean I haven't been doing some crocheting as well!

I've released four new patterns since my last update! There will probably be one more pattern released in 2014, and after that I've already got a lineup of dolls waiting for the new year! With any luck, I'll be able to spend my Christmas break adding some new additions as well.

In the meantime, here are the newest patterns offered in my store:

Halloween Witch Doll



This is the pattern I alluded to in my last post. I'm a huge Halloween fan, and after buying some great neon-coloured yarn, I just couldn't resist creating this colourful witch!



Red Riding Hood

 I really love fairytales (Once Upon a Time is one of my favourite shows on TV right now, despite its flaws, and I'm a sucker for most adaptations of fairytale characters). So adding a Red Riding Hood Doll to my collection was a no-brainer. Consider it preparation for this year's big-screen Into the Woods film!

Grace Doll

African American Doll

Grace was a lot of fun to make. I spent a lot of time deciding on how to design her hair in a way that looked somewhat realistic while still getting the effect I was going for. Inspired by a little girl with a big imagination, I can't help but smile whenever I see this doll on my shelf (hopefully the original will go to a kid who loves her, too!).

Christmas Elf Doll


I always struggle between my love of Halloween and my love of Christmas - much as I love the latter, I never allow myself to start feeling the holiday spirit until November 1st. Well, November 1st this year brought with it a Christmas Elf design! I really wanted an elf who looked like she could spend her time running around in the snow or making mischief of her own. The coat was a labour of love, but I think the end result was worth it!
