Blogging is hard work...

I find this blogging lark very tricky to keep up with, especially when it appears I am only talking to myself...oh, hang on, I do that all the time anyway.

But Huzzah!!  I have something to blog about - I have finished making a proper crochet pattern.  It took ages because I wanted to get all the photos just right and the layout and all that stuff.  I've had lovely fun getting it all just so.  Anyways, without further ado, may I introduce.....

The two patterns are constructed much the same way, all in one, no sewing pieces together afterwards (except ears and nostrils!)  The only difference is the heads, which is why I've decided to stick them both into one pattern.  What a bargain :)

It's available here: http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/harriet-hippo-and-penelope-elephant

Now, this is all well and good but the postman has just dropped off my Collectors edition of Mass Effect 3 (yes, I've fallen for the old 'collectors edition' crap again) so I am going to unwrap that and see what we've got.

  1. Hi!
    I also have a blog and the same feeling of "talking to myself"! ^u^
    But you aren't because I am here reading to you!!
    Congrats on the patterns!! I love it when there's almost no sewing (I don't like to sew) and when I create patterns I try to do them in a way that people don't need to sew as well.
    I love the colors you used! Vey nice! ^u^
    Have a great sunday!

  2. I loved making this pattern! Just wanted to say thank you and let you know that I also blogged about my little hippo here: http://dandeliondaze.wordpress.com/2013/01/21/made-with-love/
    Thanks for all of your hard work in making up this pattern! I know a lot of work went into it with all of the diagrams, photos and instructions which were all super clear and helpful!
