Crochet Cable Wrist Warmer

I finally tried crochet cabling and I have to say it was pretty easy and beautiful. Here are a pair of wrist warmers I made. I love them! Thank you to All About Ami for introducing them on your blog post. :) HERE is the free pattern by Julee Reeves

I used 3.75mm hook bc my hands are small and Red Heart Soft yarn in turquoise. I love this color. :)

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays! :)

From a very cute comic about and called Panda and Polar Bear. :)

Wishing all Christians a Merry Christmas and to all Pandas and their family and friends, Happy Winter Holidays!!

No More Frantic Crocheting today

LOL … there are a lot of WIPs that I need to finish for the next gift, either birthday or Xmas. :p Sorry…..hehe

 I'm gonna take today to just feel the spirit of the season and not worry about gifts. :) I hope you all enjoy Christmas Eve!!! :)

Christmas Tree Bust

Here’s a cute little tree all dressed up for the season. :)
He’s a gift to my friend’s husband. I really never know what to give guys. :p I hope he likes him.

The free pattern is by DenDennis. (Free pattern HERE)  I only sewed on these multi-colored mini bells I had. :) I think they look like mini ornaments. :) And he was quick to whip up. :)

Holiday BYATWF!

Panda Ongiri had to get ready for the last BYATWF. So I made him a lil Santa hat to wear. All ready now but he’s getting a little Grey around the edges. I think he’s getting ready to retire soon if I can’t find a way to give him a touch up. :p

 

Here is the last BYATWF for the year, holiday version. We did last min. prep for a baby shower. Lots of crafting was done. :) But it was all worth it. :)

 

We hope your holiday prep is going well. :)

Have a Happy Panda Thanksgiving!!!

Happy Thanksgiving!! Thank you to all my lovely followers. Your likes and comments really support and inspire me. :) Have a great one!!

I'm making all the sides this year. We have a mix of American and Chinese dishes: green bean casserole, stir fried mushrooms, potato salad, and danko (white turnip) soup. We bought the turkey with sticky rice and a stir fried greens at a Chinese restaurant this year. I'm too scared to actually try to cook a turkey. hehe And 3 types of desserts: almond jello with fruit cocktail, red bean mochi bars, and apple turnovers. Yum!!!

Fluffy Lamb (Sheep) Amigurumi
