Happy Halloween!!!!

Happy Halloween everyone I hope everyone has had a really fun day and gorged themselves on loads of sweets or had a blast at different parties. This year for Halloween I went to a place near me called the River Rooms. Every year they seem to follow a tradition of having a really epic band play for them called Maet Loaf and The Never Land Express(a tribute band to Meat Loaf).  Here is a pic of the epic group and a shot of the main guy:

In honour of Halloween I made a necklace for my costume. I made a simple crochet body and then added felt wings to the back to make this cute little bat I’ve named Screech.

I’ve made it so I can wear screech as a necklace and also turn him into a keyring if need be.

Henry the Hedgehog

Hi everyone I hoped you all liked my last post that had the free pattern for Sidney the Alien, I’ve been really busy recently with family life and learning to drive finally, had my first lesson a few days back and it was epic. I also got my ears pierced with my friend so kinda had to recover a bit from my ears aching lol. 

So my latest pattern came about from no-where really, one day I was just sat with my book of patterns and started writing out one wanting to know what shape I’d get. So I started up with a quick pattern and it started going into a cone nose sort of shape and was starting to take the form of a mouse or hedgehog so I decided to continue with the pattern and make a hedgehog.  When I’d finished making the body for the hedgehog I spent the next few days adding strands of wool to make the spikes.

After all the spikes were added and I’d completed the entire thing I allowed my mom to name this little cutie and she named him Henry.
