In search of a Perfect Donut

Hello, I have been searching for an easy pattern for a mini donut amigurumi. I had to unravel some almost finished projects because the size didn’t suit me. Tried a couple of patterns and finally found the one that I like. I really like making smaller size amigurumi, but not the miniature ones. I’m not that good yet. Maybe I will try that one day. Maybe.

Here’s how it turned out;

Tada!

Of course you can choose what kind of topping you want your donuts to have. Since I’m a chocolate kinda gal, I opted for a chocolate sauce over yellow icing. I used hot glue gun to keep the dark brown yarn in place. Give it a try! It is a fun and quick project, I tend to slow down when I work on a same project for too long, so this small quick projects are perfect for me!

I got the pattern from Ravelry, specifically here. I uploaded the details of the project in my Ravelry page. I will be trying out some more food amigurumi plushies, I think they’re nice, plus they’re all 0 calories guaranteed! They’re like a dream come true.

Best Days begins with -

Remember that feeling when you ordered a bunch of yarns online? Remember giddily being excited waiting for the arrival? Counting the days before you fall asleep, or even imagining when the mailman will ring your doorbell and pass on the package into your hands. No? Then I must really be a weirdo. Ha!

Excited, woohoo!

Look at all these nice colours

Since I resides in Belgium, I ordered mine from Wolnut. And last week this big surprise (not really) arrived, it really made my day. I decided to try out some Drops yarns. Ordered Belle, Cotton Light, Paris, Safran, Paris Recycled Denim. 

P/s ; I'm sure crocheters and knitters agree with me on this, right? 

Watermelons and an Owl!

Last week I have been keeping myself busy with making watermelon coasters, since they give the summer vibe. I just really like crocheting stuffs associated with foods. Here's how it looks like.

Looks yummy? Heh!

I made these coasters referring to the pattern I got here. I had to tweak it a little or else they wouldn't lay flat on a surface. Maybe had something to do with the thickness and size of my yarn and crochet hook.

Besides that I also made an amigurumi owl referring to the pattern here, except I had to replace the beak since I don't have yellow/orange felt. This is how it turns out. 

Good night! Zzzzzzzz.

P/s ; Hmm, what should I make next? ;3

Organising, the toughest thing to do.

Well, I recently learned how to crochet on Youtube and immediately fell in love and it currently is my hobby. However when I crochet, I found myself struggling to keep my surrounding spotless (wonder why eh?). So I decided to wind my yarns into yarn cakes as I realized it took 50% less space than a before. Mind you, I don't have the yarn winder. I've only recently discovered the existence of the device last night during late night reading (To clarify, I read on my tablet). So I do it manually, thanks to Youtube, now I'm well on my way to organize my yarn storage boxes! 

And I know my yarn collection isn't much compared to other veteran crocheters.
(I'm just a newbie, hehe)

P/s; I'm not even 50% done yet. I guess no more crocheting till they're all done, sobs. Decided to give my new blog a go. Here we go!
