I always love to crochet amigurumi dolls. This time, I tried to make a friend of Sanrio's. I called him Nuro, the sailor. He is so handsome with his tuxedo and Popeye's hat on his bald head. He always smile, I think he will be such a friendly friend for your child.

Nuro is ready to play with you. I hope you will like him too :)


Oooops ...







Orange Birthday Cake


Three days ago was my birthday. One of my best friend gave me a cake as birthday present. I called this cake as orange birthday cake because of the peeled oranges on the creamy top layer of it.

Chinese Soy Sauce Vermicelli


What you have to cook if you only have a pack of vermicelli in the refrigerator without any spices left at the kitchen except some tusk of dry garlics kept in the basket?

October 15, 2012

I thought it was a special Monday. One of my working partner brought her own made rainbow cake to our office. She told us, it wasn't the first time she made a rainbow cake. This time, she made it specially for us. Oh, thanks :)

Paprika Fish


Cooking is one of hobbies and I like to try for new recipes. One day, I accidentally found a slice of fish meat in the freezer. I didn't remember when I chose and bought it at the market.

Crochet Brimmed Baby Boy Hat


Bored of  making hats for baby girls, I tried to make a crochet brimmed baby boy hat, with buttons. I used different color of cotton knitting yarn ( light blue and cream ) to crochet this simple boy's hat.

Crochet Flower Necktie


I visited a friend's home last month. She has a couple of pomeranian dogs. They were so cute and easy to play with anybody. They were such lovable pets and I thought it would be nice if there were something unique and pretty hanging around their neck. Then, I decided to make two laces of crochet flower necktie for them. 


It's ridiculous, because the real pattern of these lovely little stuffs is a headband's pattern for girls. The pattern is quite simple and easy. It's a quick project, I'm sure you can make the crochet flower necktie or headband too. Let's check out for the pattern by clicking the link below :

Instead of plastic buttons, you can choose any material of fancy buttons, whatever you like and sew it onto the center part of the flower. This is the final step. 



Please look at them. They're so photogenic, aren't they?
Next time, I want to make clothes for them. Hmmm, maybe in my future projects ...

Crochet Baby Shoulder Warmer


Do you want to make something different for your baby? The shoulder warmer can be your best choice, because it's simple to wear and can keep your baby from cold in the windy nights, instead of wearing sweaters or jackets. 


I don't remember when I made this shoulder warmer, but maybe over than seven or eight years ago. This stuff had been kept in my cupboard for years, before I decided to give it away.

Crochet Baby Shoes


For the last few days, I tried to complete my first crochet baby shoes with laces. It was a hard project for me, because lack of confidence to make a pair of similar shape of shoes. I was relieved when I saw the result of each shoe.

Baby Elephant Amigurumi Doll

Hi, Wino !

I love dolls, since I was a child. When I was a little girl, I had a collection of dolls in my bedroom. Most of them contained parts of plastic stuff which were not suitable for babies.

Crochet Baby Monkey Hat




My friend was looking for an unique baby hat for her niece and she asked me if I could make a crochet baby hat for her. It was a challenge for me to make something different than usual, ordinary form of baby hats. So, I decided to make this crochet baby monkey hat, with ears on each side of the top.  














The pictures above is the making process of this funny little stuff. I really enjoyed every part of crocheting it, specially for the ears and the braided laces. After finishing all parts of it, you can attach crochet flowers, ribbons or other accessories, whatever you like, to the baby hat, in order to be more gorgeous or pretty. 

If you want the detailed pattern of this unique crochet baby hat, you can find the free pattern of it from the link below :



I hope you will like it too :)

Crochet Shrug


My friend told me that she was looking for a shrug, in order to be matched with her lovely dress. So, I tried to make a shrug for her. I needed balls of  cream cotton knitting yarns to crochet this shrug. It was a trial and error experiment.

Crochet Baby Cloches



One of my working partner gave a birth to a child last August. It's a baby girl. I thought it would be nice if I could make something pretty for her little new born princess. So, I decided to make some crochet baby cloches. I used balls of different color of cotton knitting yarns to start crocheting these beautiful crochet baby cloches. The result was amazing, simple but elegant.

 



The pictures above are the making process of my first baby cloche. I used two kinds of knitting yarn material, wool and cotton. I chose a ball of grey cotton yarn to crochet the cupola of the cloche. For the list of the cloche and the  attached flower, I tried to use the unused white wool yarn to complete the cloche. 


 

Besides the crochet flowers, you can attach various accessories to the cloches, such as crochet bow or other material, whatever you like, according to your creativity. But, I preferred to use flowers. Why? Because I believe the passion of the flowers can transfer a strong feminine touch to the cloches, especially for the baby girls.




 
Tadaaa ... the cloches were done. One cloche, two cloches, three cloche, four cloches ... Oh, I want to make more ...

Thanks, Anneliese :)
Keep crocheting!

Crochet Rose Projects

Crochet Roses

Rose, rose ... I do love roses. Since I found another way to make a crochet rose, I'm eager to make these crochet roses, more than before. The crochet roses are gorgeous, they can be beautifully attached to various accessories, such as brooch, hairpin or refrigerator magnet. Those crochet roses are also unique as wedding souvenirs and small gifts. Finally, I decided to start selling my own crochet roses, about a few weeks ago. If you are passionately fond of the roses and you want to try to make some crochet roses too, I can share the crochet pattern of June's basic rose as the link below :

Thanks, June :)

 

I enjoy making these little stuffs. It's much easier than I thought before, so just do it. I used balls of different colors of cotton knitting yarns to make a bunch of crochet roses. You can make a crochet rose from different stuff of yarns, such as wool or nylons, whatever you like to use, with different result, of course.
