Throwback Thursday

It is that time of the week where I get to show an early picture or something as a throwback to older times! This week's throwback photo is:

Dolly

This was my second or third doll. It was for a friend's daughter who wanted a doll. It was relatively easy to crochet, but it took a while. Of course, looking at it 3 years later I know that I could and would change things like the eyes, the hair, and add more stuffing.

The important thing is...the little girl liked it. So I was happy!

Thanks for going back with me

Throwback Thursday

I wanted to start creating a blog topic for certain days of the week to share further with my readers. Thursdays will be known as - Throwback Thursdays! If you have been on the internet previously, you have probably already encountered this topic multiple times.

How It Works

I will look through my photos and post a picture of a previous project. Because this is a crochet blog, I will try to make it crochet; however, I may throw in other types of photos!

I would love to hear your comments!

Today's Throwback Thursday

This little bear is not only poorly constructed, but she is my second ever doll and my third ever project in crochet. My first doll and first project in crochet was an elephant. I will have to share that soon! I am not actually sure where this bear ended up, but I sure have come a long way.

What was your first project?

A Finished Project

So, one of my old high school friends decided she wanted a doll for her daughter from an Amigurumi doll pattern I linked on Facebook.  And...it is done.  Below is the finished project.

This, of course, is not my pattern.  I found it one day on this website: http://stitch.hellooperator.net/free-patterns/amigurumi-doll/amigurumi-doll-pattern-charts/.  I am very thankful I found this.  It is super cute doll!

Luckily, I have one more doll in works for a Christmas present to my little niece Ada.  :) I hope she will love it.  I took a different approach to the second doll though.  I choose a white yarn for the face, legs, and arms.  For the outfit, I chose the a blue and brown variegated yarn.  I also took a different approach to the eyes since my niece is around a year old.  I crocheted a magic ring circle with two rows (12 sts).  Pictures will be posted when I finish it.

Just to mention: I did not sell this pattern or the finished doll.  All copyrights reserved to the rightful author.
