You've seen me post pics of all the painted rocks I've made and hid for people to find, I lost my mojo for it years ago and my fibromyalgia has got way worse, but I'm going to try and paint 2 small rocks, everything is ready, I had to pop out for an eraser as I didn't have one, I've also got my little seat step thing to paint rocks on like a little floor table as I sit on cushions
I made this for my mum, but she died not long after so now its on a hook hanging up on my bedroom wall, the top of it slides up and down to put stuff in and take it out, you can wear it round your neck
After I've posted almost all the crochet things I've made over a few different crochet subs, its gave me a little bit of mojo to do a few rows of a blanket I started ages ago thats just been in my yarn box
I did post the crochet tortoise in a load of other pics yesterday, but I've just found pics of the tortoise I made it of, my sister's tortoise so thought you'd like to see him
My neighbours cat passed over the rainbow bridge, so I made her cat that looked like him, she loved him
These are a few of the first things I made, I also made a cat nip ball and a pink jellyfish octopus thing lol, not even sure I could do the basics after I lost my mojo though
It really is a fish, it might not look like a fish but it is lol, I did get better at cat toys but when I tried posting 2 pics of my cats other catnip toys on a different sub they deleted the post strait away so I don't want to post those on here as for some reason "feline herb smokes" ain't allowed lol
I didn't realise I went wrong right at the start as this was one of the first blankets I made, I had done quite a bit before someone pointed it out and didnt want to start again as I'm so slow, this took 5-6 hours a day for 5 days lol, I like to put a white wavy border on blankets I make
I found pics of my very first go at doing amigurmi or is it called 3D crochet if its just a ball, its a catnip toy, but maybe I didn't put enough in as he didn't play with it
*please note if making cat toys with yarn, you must keep a close eye on the cat playing with it and throw the toy away at any signs of wear or tear, even a loose thread, cats can't spit yarn out very easily due to little spikes on their tounge, they end up swallowing it, so unless you can't keep a very close eye on your cat its best not to give them toys made from yarn, thanks
These are Martians from Sesame Street, I made them for my son, he loves them
One day I might try and paint more rocks for people to find, keep or rehide, it will have to be a day when my pain levels are only really painful not absolutely really painful lol
These are the Martians from Sesame Street, I had to look up to see if ymYip Yips are amigurmi, and apparently they are so heres 2 I made for my son
I'm new, I don't know if its allowed to post pics of dogs with crochet made for them, or if its just for dogs sitting on owners crochet as they are doing the crochet etc, so heres just a few items I made my sister's dogs and a dog that belonged to a friend I dont see anymore
I did post a pic but uploaded it with a load of other pics on a post a while ago, but you could only see one house, the others in the background was blurry so here is a pic of all of them, I used normal rocks then used milliput epoxy putty for the roof edges and chimneys, the roofs of the houses are still rocks its just the edges and chimneys are putty, which is paintable
I made my sisters boy dog a bandana, he couldn't have a coat like my sisters girl dog because he'd bite anyone trying to put it on him lol, my sister chose the colours for him
Just a simple cat rock I painted and hid for someone to find, keep or rehide
Made an octopus for my son as an improvement on one of the very first amigurmi items I made which was the pink octopus
My mum wanted me to make her dog Flossie a bandana, they both passed away shortly after I made her one, she didn't like wearing it after I made her it either lol, but I got a few nice pics of her wearing it
Flossie had to be put down because of a couple of lumps, suspected cancer, this was a short while before my mum died of cancer, they are both together again forever on the beach near me
My mum wanted their ashes mixed together and then scattered on the beach, so that's what we done
More rocks I painted and hid for people to find, I'll run out of pics of past rocks and need to paint some new ones lol
Here are some more rocks I painted and hid for people to find
