NEW Cockateil

 NEW Bird pattern will be available soon in my shops , my previous cockatiel is in a nesting position, (Like setting on eggs....in a nest) and I wanted one that would free stand, and also look very natural , when posed in a perching position.
 Size Variance  , the large bird is crocheted with worsted weight yarn, and the small bird is crocheted with DK or sport yarn.  Changing yarn and hooks creates a nice size change and you end up with a mother bird, and her baby.
 Bird free stands, due to balance of the tail and feet, or you may perch her/him on a limb. Either way adorable little pet, and best of all , they are life size and will not make any messes to clean up.
Mother and baby cockatiels.

DOBBY by CHIWALUV

 NEW Dobby  Crochet

I have written my own pattern for the little Dobby creature from the famous Harry Potter series.

The first two photos are crocheted with Red Heart Super Saver yarn, and a size F crochet hook, the pillow case Dobby wears is hand knit as well as his sock!  He is approximately 13 inches standing.

The third and fourth photos down are crocheted with DK yarn and a size D crochet hook, he also has a hand knitted pillow case and sock. He is approximately 9-1/2 inches standing.



 Fun to see what different size hooks and yarn will accomplish making the same pattern.


This is an exclusive pattern and will not be for sale, however I will occasionally  make these dolls  and post them for sale,

Both dolls are currently available for purchase if you would like to buy one. Just send me a message.

Please note : I am not taking orders , once these sell, it may be a few months before I make more.  I just have to many projects currently going on, to donate my time just to dobby....even though he is a blast to make! ;o)



Scottie

 Hand crocheted Scottie Dog.....having fun with scraps of yarn.

Baseball Teddy

Base Ball Teddy is made from my Touch down Ted Pattern, few adjustments in colors, added some teddy bear ears, and some crochet artifacts..


Pretty in Pink

 Pretty Ballerina in Pink, hand knit in shades of pink and black. She is about 12 inches tall, long dangly legs, fun to pose.

Loopy Stitch

 Learning the knit loop stitch , has been a fun new thing for me, this is a Vintage pattern of a little Poodle, I have seen sheep also made using this stitch. Rather easy and fun to do, once you catch onto it....the little flower in her hair, is made on a flower loom, (I make these little flowers to put in my Grooming customers dogs hair, they really love them! Yep I am a professional dog/pet groomer by day, and avid knitter /crochet junkie by evening!  )
