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. :)

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!!!

Lovely Baby Lion Amigurumi



I was lucky enough to test another adorable version of LookAtWhatIMade's lion. The first was the amish puzzle ball, then came the lovely, and now this adorable amigurumi stuffed animal.

He's an adorable little hand full. He's the perfect size to be carried around by a little one. :) I'm going to give him with the lion lovely to a friend who's having her first baby boy. :)

She has lots of great patterns, some free and some not, on her website. :) It was a lot of fun to make him. :) I hope you guys try too. :)
