Owl has a face!

Here's the finished owl. Isn't he just stinkin' adorable?! I'm going to give him to my brother that lives in NYC as a birthday gift. He collects owls and has them on display in his office at work. I'll be so tickled the next time I go visit and get to see him sitting on the shelf.

Amigurumi Owl

Jaz likes to pose:

This is the body of an Amigurumi owl from crochetme.com. I just need to add some features now. I'll do that after my next trip to the store.

The Adventures of Rabbit and Rhino!

I think the photos speak for themselves:

The Ashlind Bunny!!!

Here is the front and back of a bunny pattern I just created. I made the bunny for a friend who is pregnant and after trying other patterns I wasn't happy with and couldn't fine one I liked I decided to try my hand at making my own! I'm going to start practicing Amigurumi since it's worked in the round and will eliminate the seam in the back, but I think he turned out great! I still need to put a nose on him but I don't have any yarn in a light pink so I'll need to run to the store tomorrow for that. So what do you think???

Leila the Rhino

Here is the finished Leila the Rhino I made for a friend who is preggers. I bought the pattern from www.roxycraft.com. I think the Rhino is male and totally cute!!! Next I'll try to make a bunny I'll be creating from my own imagination. Hopefully it'll go well!!!

Betty Headband


Here is a headband I made for my MIL Betty. She requested something absorbent that she can wear under her riding helmet (she rides horses). This is done in a seed stitch (cast on 16), size 5 needles, with a cotton/elastic blend yarn, 20 inches in length. The yarn is Fixation by Cascade Yarns, color # 5104, 98.3% cotton, 1.7% elastic. Hmmm... I'm thinking it looks like terry cloth and it feels like it too!
