Short crazey shell jacket


 Finished this jacket this morning, made for daughter, as she wanted to wear over one of her top. Hope it comes useful to her.

For this, according to the length needed plus, the back together, make chain, then see how the crazy shell is made, once the breadth from neck to shoulder is reached, you decide how much you need for arm-hole, then in those stitches continue the pattern till desired length of the sleeves. You need to make 2 like this, as it is joined in the centre at the back, then join for sleeves and sides. Then make whatever edgings you like.

Elephant Eyeglass Holder


The basic design is by Lisa Ferrel- since my wool was thin, I had to increase the number of rows, then decrease accordingly. The trunk  and the tusks are my own idea, as my daughter wanted a long trunk, as the elephant's trunk isn't the same size throughout, as I felt that was what was there in that pattern, I made the trunk and tusks as I felt will look better. Eyes, I make in all my amigurumi with crochet, mainly in magic circle, I make single crochet, depending on how big/ small I need the eyes to look. Made this for our son-in-law, hoping he'll use it to keep his glasses on it.

Motif and leaves on salwar suit


This motif is called Russian paisley and Paddingcord Leaves- the design is by Bizzy hands, so the credit should go to that designer.

Actually the motif in the pink salwar is sea green colour, to match with the darker blue kameez.

The only variation that I made in the design was, I didn't do my single crochet in the backloop as suggested. Thanks to Bizzy hands for sharing this pattern, my daughter liked it a lot and wanted it on her dress.

Penguin Bag


The idea I got from a site, but then as I made with almost double the no. of stitches, when it came to doing the penguin face shaping, had to think for myself. I made the feet bigger than what was mentioned in the site. I made a long handle using black and white wool, and joined the handle all around. The penguin's nose acts like a button !

Shark Cellphone bag



I made this shark cellphone bag for my grand-daughter, who loves animals and wanted this one when I showed her a similar pattern. But, I had to change a lot from the pattern, as felt the stitches were more as for the material I used, so, changed as what I felt was needed, so, for the teeth and other parts too, reduced and in the pattern for the shark teeth were not stitched, felt that they may easily tear as there were gaps in the final round of teeth, so I stitched it securely. The handle, I made with shaded cotton thread, felt so happy when granddaughter after returning from her classes said it looked so good. I can't ask for anything more, as the user is happy using it.

Graduation Teddy Bear


Made this for my grand-daughter, who is just finishing her 10th grade and coming next week to be with us during her holidays. It is a surprise for her, as when she was a baby, all that I made for her was baby blanket, booties, caps and some dresses, didn't know anything about amigurumi, which I learnt about 5 years ago, after my 1st grandson was born, thanks to our daughter-in-law, who showed me the sites for amigurumi, got me stuff while we went to UK and started. Of course, my 1st one a tiger was almost a flat guy, as if he was starved ! slowly learning how to improve seeing the various masters in this craft.

Thanks to the lady of this site for the pattern both of the teddy and the grad dress, cap etc. But, I had to make some little changes, esp. the grad dress, cap etc, as my teddy was much smaller in size than hers ! Anyway, isn't it good to use your brain too some time.
