pattern update

I had to reduce the size of my quaggan amigurumi. It was too...floppy? It's reduced size will make it cuter!

Watching the Little Couple while crocheting with Weasley on my lap is the best.

Happy Holidays!

Good evening!  I have had a busy fall, with no time to update at all! I just completed my student teaching in English as a Second Language last week.  Pretty soon, I will hopefully get my teacher certification for my state and a my first full-time job! With the holidays coming, my mom asked me what I was getting my dad for Christmas.  Well, I didn't get anyone anything.  That had to change.  So I dug around in my stash for some yarn to make a Christmas pudding ornament for my dad.  Then, a TARDIS ornament was added.  Then, I added a weeping angel and Dalek to the mix.  My sister made me add a mince pie to the collection.  So, the British Ornament set was born.  My dad is English, so it works.

Guess what's on my Amazon wish list now... My pattern isn't very round right now.  I'm hoping it will round out soon or else I'm going to have to start over and the pain in my finger will have been for nothing! I am upset that Michael's doesn't carry animal/safety eyes used in amigurumi.  It is an essential item in the creation of amigurumi and they sell books on how to make them there.  Shouldn't all the supplies required in their construction be sold at their store?!  Jo-Ann Fabrics carries them in their superstores but I would prefer to not go to my workplace on my day off.  Next time I'm not closing wil...
