Atashi V2.0

My daughter wanted me to make another Atashi for her baby's room.  I did, but I changed a few things.  I made the ears longer, so they help her stand upright and found a star bead which I sewed her hands to.  It seems to work better than the origami star.

Unfortunately, I completely forgot to take a picture before I wrapped it for the baby shower.  /headdesk

Dishcloths

I had some left over yarn, so I decided to try and make dishcloths.  I have never made them before. The problem is I didn't really care for any of the patterns.  After deciding to make a simple single crochet cloth, I realized that the hook I was using was - again - too small.

FPDC Baby Cuddle Sack and Hat

I made another gift for my soon-to-be-born granddaughter.  Many newborns love to be tightly wrapped in a blanket.   Unfortunately, if a baby is long their feet tend to pop out the bottom.   A baby cocoon is a good solution.

Little Green Dragon

My youngest daughter has been asking for this dragon for a long time.  I finally did it for her.  The hardest part was doing up all the felt and getting it glued onto the body correctly.
