Wedding gift no. 4: Baby dungaree

Here's a baby shorts dungaree! ^^




I really love the yarn in this one. It was so much fun to work with 'cos it changes color all the time! It keeps the working very interesting :D My mum bought the yarn from Lidl, so it doesn't have any special brand (the package just says Sock Yarn, lol XD), but the material is 48% cotton, 39% wool and 13% polyamid. Crochet hook I used was 3mm.

The instructions I used are from a blog called Linda's Crafty Corner. It's a very nice craft blog! You should check it out ^^

I think I put too many buttons in the legs :D But oh well, at least they stay closed! XD (wait..... that sounded so wrong.............) AND. The teddy bear in the front was so hard to find -____-;; It was very hard to find ANY fun fabric patches that can be ironed. But in the end I found some, luckily.

Right now, I'm working on another dungaree, 'cos a friend ordered one from me ^^ I use the same yarn, but I'm not sure if I'm gonna use the same green on the edging, and also I have to find another patch with a boy-theme :D Thank God Jyväskylä has a very good selection in that case :D

Kawaii Teddy -scarf

Just finished my second item to my Etsy-shop! ^^ A Kawaii Teddy scarf. The material is 75% wool and 25% polyamide. This one got ready a lot faster than the Kitty-scarf because I used a bigger hook (4mm, the kitty was made with 3mm) and the yarn was thicker as well. Here are some pictures!! ^^




I really like that yarn *____* It's very nice to crochet (I bet it's nice to knit as well) because it's thick and it changes color ^^ and actually the texture of the yarn changes as well! It's Finnish brand called Novita Usva. Next I'm planning to crochet a white bunny scarf of Novita Kaiku, which is thick, white and very soft yarn *-* No wait, actually I'm gonna crochet some baby sneakers at first! For change :D I have materials for that at home so I save some money because I don't have to be buying new yarns all the time :D
