Naptime blanket. Design and pattern are my own. In retrospect:
+ big and fluffy
+ super cute
- different stitches with different tension make the blanket curl up or be tighter in some areas than others.
- hearts and font make the blanket more stiff

There is a smaller baby version of this too!
Large 50 by 30 inch blanket. Main color is cream white with a big bulky fluffy yarn, second color is a dark forest green. The pattern of the blanket from bottom to top: 1. Herringbone pattern 2. Heart pattern in which there are bobbles worked into the rounds to create 4 hearts on the front of the blanket. 3. Nap Time pattern in which the bobbles are now used to spell out the words "NAP TIME" in all caps. The Nap Time pattern is also separated through one dark green line from the rest of the blanket (above and below the pattern) with a few rows of herringbone pattern above. 4. Sheep pasture pattern. The color is now dark forest green and the bobbles are in the bottom and top row. In between there are 4 trees created through bobbles to give the impression of trees on the blanket. In the center are 4 crocheted white sheep on the blanket (worked as tapestry) 5. Above the pasture is another repetition of the heart pattern and the blanket ends with another repetition of the herringbone pattern. The blanket has a dark forest green border crocheted all around it.

Pumpkin Spice Sweater. Pattern is my own design.
In retrospect:
+ love the colors
+ love the tapestry
- requires a lot of yarn and patience

It is my favorite thing I've ever designed and crocheted! So comfy and the pattern is adjustable to all body types :)
Pumpkin Spice Sweater. It is worked with a Gingham pattern in orange, yellow and cream. The ribbing (collar, sleeves, bodice) are in a light green. The right sleeve has pumpkins as bobble stitches worked in one row, between the Gingham pattern. There's a big tapestry crochet across the chest section with pumpkins in orange and yellow that have a brown thick stem and connected through light green vines and leaves. The background of the tapestry is in cream.

Ren faire outfit. Pattern is an amalgamation of patterns from Youtube and my own design and ideas.
+ Very cute
+ Recycled some old yarn
+ Recycled some old pants
- Took months to finish
- Garters with wrong measurement for legs and button holes so I had to remove them later on.
Ren faire outfit: A dark blue crocheted corset with white flowers at the base of the straps, the straps then cross in the back. The front is tied shut with a thick rope looking like thread. There's cream colored lace ruffled at the bottom around the entire corset. Light brown pants that were upcycled to receive white lace at the bottom. Dark blue garters with pearls embroidered on top and big white flowers in the middle where the straps meet (one set of straps goes around the leg, another one is attached to the brown pants). Crocheted monstera leaves in light green and dark green are attached to the brown pants. A woman with brown hair and brown eyes is looking at her left shoulder. The picture is taken from the left side also. She's wearing a white blouse and the crocheted corset, as well as elf ears with green jewelry dangling from them and a white lace headband. On her shoulder is a crocheted amigurumi (stuffed animal) in the shape of a snail. The snail is white and the shell is green. Close up of the garters. They are connected to the pants with flower shaped buttons. The garters are dark blue crochet with pearls embroidered. The centers where both straps meet have a big white flower sewn on. Close up of the light and dark monstera leaves crocheted as a bulk to be worn over the light brown pants. The lace of the corset (cream colored lace) is partially visible.

Heart cardigan. Pattern from Youtube. In retrospect:
+ cute
+ fits well
- 100% cotton yarn (gets very stiff after washing)
- took a lot of sewing (and I messed up the button placement)
Crocheted granny squares with hearts in the middle. There are 3 colors used: cream, brown and green. Every color is paired with another to create six different pattern versions, like for example green heart and cream square around it or brown heart and cream square around it. This picture shows all six possibilities. Fininshed heart cardigan. The squares were sewn together to create a cardigan. The bottom ribbing is in green, the collar ribbing is in cream and the sleeves ribbing is in brown. The collar ribbing also has 4 buttons sewn on. The cardigan is flat on a wooden surface. Fininshed heart cardigan. The squares were sewn together to create a cardigan. The bottom ribbing is in green, the collar ribbing is in cream and the sleeves ribbing is in brown. The collar ribbing also has 4 buttons sewn on. The cardigan is partially folded on a wooden surface with one sleeve down and one sleeve folded upwards toward the collar. The cardigan front is now closed with the buttons.

Strawberry bandana. Pattern from Youtube. In retrospect:
+ super cute
+ perfect yarn (fingering weight) so it is not bulky
- took forever with thin yarn
flat strawberry triangle bandana. It is white with lace weight yarn, worked in squares. each square has a red strawberry with green leaves and yellow seeds on it. Six triangles create the head border to even out the zig-zag look of all the squares sewed together. Small white straps to tie the bandana around the head. Cut off picture of a woman with dark brown hair and brown eyes wearing the strawberry bandana (white triangle bandana with red strawberries that have dark green leaves and yellow seeds)

Unblocked versions of different crochet lace I was trying before I gave up. It's so much work lol
Work in progress of white yeart shaped lace edging with a tiny red crochet hook. Two hearts were crocheted, the rest of the base and foundation is left unfinished. Crocheted flower lace border. It has a base and a top connecting each flower. Each flower has two leaves that are also connecting the flowers to one another and one big flower head that looks similar to daisies.

Cat crochet hook case for myself. Pattern is an amalgamation of different Youtube Tutorials (for shapes). In retrospect:
+ cute
- looks uneven with hooks and tools inside
- not spacious enough for all tools and hooks
- hooks and tools may fall through the top
A crocheted cat crochet hook case. It resembles a cat face on a rectangular case, it has two grey cat ears and a grey cat nose (made by a star shaped pink button). Two big black crocheted eyes and two round pink cheeks on an otherwise white cat face. The inside of the crochet case. It is unfolded and has soft yellow straps and pouches sewn into it to hold various sizes, shapes and colors of hooks, needles and stitch markers.

Succulents crochet coasters for my friend/soon SIL. Pattern from Youtube. In retrospect:

+ cute
+ keeps table dry
- wrong yarn (too flimsy for basket)
Round crocheted coasters that have a cream center and bright green borders that look like succulent leaves. There's a crocheted basket with cream bows decorating it. The coasters are put into the basket to make it look like a pot with succulents in it.

Walbert the Whale keychain, also for my friend. Pattern from Youtube. In retrospect:

+ cute
+ good structural integrity
- button eyes might get ripped off in a bag
Front view of the whale keychain. It is soft blue with button eyes and a white belly. Two fins are sticking out on the side. Small threads of red are giving a blush effect. The bear bag from the post above and the whale keychain Walbert next to it.

There's a note with a floral pattern attached to the whale keychain that says "Hi, my name is: Walbert! BFF"

ich hab auch ein Knöchel der echt laut knackt, mein Mann kann den auch hören. solange es aber nicht schmerzhaft ist, ist es wohl in Ordnung. es schnalzt auch komisch, als ob da eine Sehne Seilhüpfen spielt, tut aber wie gesagt nicht weh und fühlt sich nur komisch an. Denke mal ist bei dir ähnlich?

Thank you for showing compassion and trying to help ♥️ I am sure he appreciates it that he did not have to suffer alone and cold on the streets...
