Another Octopus

Yep, it’s another octopus! This time a rainbow 🌈 one ❤️🧡💛💚🩵💙💜🩷🤍

Crocheted at Cwmtydu beach

My 10yo and 3yo immediately started arguing over it so I’ll just have to made another one!

Made with this DK acrylic rainbow yarn and these 6mm safety eyes.

Pink Octopus 🐙

We’re on holidays in Aberaeron at the moment, luckily having some lovely sunshine!

Moonrise

So obviously I’ve got to make a few octopuses!

Ive been having a go of this yarn holder today which has been awesome.

You pop the yarn onto the holder, and either have it around your wrist or, what I did was attach it to the chair next to me (my son didn’t mind too much!)

It was great! It worked really well and saved me doing what I usually do and have my yarn on the floor, rolling around in the grass picking up whatever is about! So my yarn stayed lovely and tidy and grass free.

Definitely recommend if you want one follow this link here to buy ❤️ You get a wristlet and a long crossbody lanyard holder too!

Finished pinky octopus and yarn holder!
Pinky octopus in all her glory!

I also used these 6mm safety eyes on all my octopuses 🐙

Hope you like my lovely octopuses, I have included Amazon associate links if you’re interested in any of the products I’ve used.

Thank you Diolch for reading ❤️

From Octo-bunny!

I’ve been crocheting a lot of little octopi for my obsessed son so I thought I’d do an Easter adjacent version.

Babi wearing 2 Mami made items today

My little model wearing her cute red polka dot red dress I made and a crochet cardigan. She loved doing twirls and showing off in her little outfit.

I do have another blog post about the little red dress so I hope to post that soon!

Crochet Chick

I’ve noticed my baby girl has loved little yellow chicks for ages now and I’ve been wanting to make her one. I finally found a pattern I liked and got around to making it!

Chickedy Chick

The pattern is from Etsy by TheresasCrochetShop. Super recommended the pattern, really easy to follow and clear instructions. I’ll most definitely make a few more for Easter next year!

Made using just scraps of leftover yarn I’ve had free with magazines over the years. DK acrylic and using a 4mm crochet hook.

Hopefully the baby will like it!!

Ok, this guy is adorable 💗🐙💗

I Crochet So I Don’t Kill People

I’ve recently acquired a badge maker. Squeeeeeeeeeee.

I was playing with it last night and made some badges, HOORAY! So obviously I’ve put them on my Etsy shop

I’ve recently (re)learnt crochet, and it’s been great. So that’s kind of the inspirado behind it. Crochet is supposed to be a stress relief, not initially obviously but once you’ve cracked it, definitely! 

So please have a look on my shop, share, buy, tell your friends. All that stuff. Cheers!
