Christmas, Crocheted animals and toys, patterns for sale, Soft toys, teddy the bear

Teddy…

Good morning !

How are you?

I’ve been very busy this week end, trying and trying again, crocheting and then unraveling and then crocheting again…

and this was the final result:

Teddy the bear 🙂

I love this cute bear… I crocheted it with my Nako vizon acrylic yarn and a 4.5mm crochet hook…

I enjoyed so much making it that I made a second one…

with Christmassy colors 🙂

and I even crocheted a third one …this time with a fine cotton thread and a much thinner crochet hook (3mm)

and here it was: a tiny tiny cute little bear to hang on the Christmas tree 🙂

Aren’t they cute? My little bears? like a small family sitting together 🙂

I’m thinking about making one with a chunky yarn to have a bigger bear … a companion for a little boy or girl 🙂

and how about a Christmas tree decorated with colorful little bears? mmmmh love the idea 🙂

And because the pattern of this little bear was very time consuming and it took me hours and hours of hard work, I decided to sell it for a very symbolic price for you my dear readers… You can buy it from here at just 2 USD (that is approx: 1.28 British pound or 1.5 euros ) I’ll have it also in my Etsy shop for a little higher price 😉

The pattern will be fully explained in English and in french also…It is a written pattern with step by step pics! The pattern will include some tips on how to have a neat result and a lot of great ideas too…

This bear is very easy to crochet and you’ll make one in about 3 or 4 hours max!

The pattern will be a pdf one I’ll send you once the payment is done 🙂

I’m off now to finalize the pattern so it will be available very soon for you to buy from here 🙂 and I’ll open also later an Etsy shop too 🙂

I’m crossing my fingers…wish me good luck 😉

Have a wonderful week my friend!

Lot and lot of kisses,

Sucrette

colors and yarns, Crocheted blankets, Lovely things, Ripple

Rainbow ripple: A new WIP on the go…

Good morning my friend!

How are you feeling today? I hope that a big smile is illuminating your face in this grey morning 🙂

Another Monday, another week, another day to love, another day to be thankful for all the joys granted ! Trying to live everyday as if it is my last… (trying, just trying, sometimes it doesn’t work 😉 )

I enjoyed so much my ripples of happiness that once it was done I felt like something was missing in my crochet life… so, I started another ripple … yes another one 🙂

Although I am still crocheting Myyy vintage blanket (I’m joining the squares of the last 4 rows now) I needed a ripple as second wip…to alternate between the joys every project gives and to not get bored too…

So, I had to…start another ripple…

Let’s show you first the yarn…mmmh…yarn is one of the best things man has ever invented 😀 hahaha Don’t you agree? 😀

I want this time to use the colors of the rainbow as they are…

… pure and bold and in sequence as in a rainbow…

…because nothing is better in a grey and cold day (or night) of winter than to snuggle under a rainbow warm blanket 🙂

The yarn is (once more) Nako Vizon a 100% acrylic and very soft yarn… (still waiting for their online shop so you can order your nako yarn too wherever you are around this globe 😉 )

I’m following this pattern…

choosing the colors as they come in the rainbow…

and alternating the number of rows of every color as in Lucy’s ripple…

I’m loving it so far… loving it loving it toooooo much… I even crocheted the pink-red-orange part and it is “light” mmmh a lovely warm kind of “light” but I did not take pics yet (I’ll show you next time)

and did you spot my new basket??? It is the most perfect basket for crochet I’ve ever had so far… It is big enough to hold all the yarn colors I use (sometimes more than 20!) and it can even holds two WIP together 🙂 I’m in love with it!

Have to go now… I’ve got a very busy day today!

Sending you BIG parcels of love through this post… Catch them 😉

Have a lovely day!
