amigurumi girl friday january 25 2013 thank you for coming hello new readers and old friends it s been over two years since my last post two years the shame and i m not posting now to make any promises of a glorious new regiment of posting schedule no no sadly more like the opposite i just wanted to pop in and say thank you to those who come by regularly though to those i feel most apologetic towards since they come with the hope of finding something anything new and all they find are crickets piles and piles of noisy loud crickets or maybe it s more like tons of cockroaches skittering no it s not dark floating dust mites a foggy misty mess of floating dust mites yeaaaa sorry and i wanted to say thank you to those who leave such nice comments that i m always happily surprised to see in my mail box and thank you to any new people who find me by accident but take a moment to browse around and thank you to those who pass on links to my patterns however shoddy they are just thank you thank you thank you i don t know if i m going to start posting again if i do i think there will have to be a massive over haul of my site first i hardly make amigurumi anymore t_t although i still love to ogle all the cute amis out there lately i ve been knitting more and trying to sew and just doing other random artsy craftsy things but even then it s not an onslaught of creative outpouring like it was in years past life just takes over and interests change right huge pleading grin so this isn t goodbye it s to let you know i m still around i m still checking in and i ll still leave this blog up as long as they ll let me so that whatever patterns or photos or something someone wants to save in their favorites will still be here there s nothing more disappointing than going through my favorite links to find a broken link message so sad happy 2013 everyone may your days be filled with fun crafts and cuteness _ v amig posted by amigurumi girl at 9 58 am 2 comments labels excuses and other ramblings saturday july 31 2010 zoe lily belle pattern correction part 2 i warned you i suck at writing patterns thank you so much for all your patience and feedback recently i was contacted by laurel who kindly pointed out a mistake in rnd 18 of the head in this pattern after much thought i think the problem is only in the final count of the stitches for that row it should read 9 and not 12 i have corrected this in the original pattern and as i told her luckily since it s only a doll we don t need to be precise anyway the idea is that the head tapered down to a neck so i leave it up to the maker s discretion on how to handle that row just follow your instincts and make it neat that s what s so great about making amigurumi there s really no right or wrong only what you create with your own feeling by the way you can visit the wonderful blog house full of monkeys for some great insight notes and suggestions to the zoe belle pattern i d take her word over mine thank you everyone for visiting my sad sad blog and i wish you the best with your hook _ ami g posted by amigurumi girl at 9 56 pm 1 comment labels excuses and other ramblings free patterns wednesday september 02 2009 craftzine s very first crochet along hi everyone i know i ve been horribly irresponsible with this site lately i hope you didn t abandon me thinking that i abandoned you certainly not i ve just been gravitating towards more mundane things of late boring but that s life sometimes so let me try to make it up some by telling you about craftzine s first crochet along ever gosh ami g get on the bandwagon that s old news geez ok well i ll just remind you then _ yesterday i received a very excited sounding email from laura at craftzine about a cute little fuzzy panda ami they ll be sharing with the online community next week the pattern is contributed by tamie snow from roxycraft who is also the author of tiny yarn animals look it s sooooo cuuuuuute from what i understand it s a lesson based crochet along partnered with lion brand yarns the first lesson is next week sept 7 follow this link to craftzine for more information of course there will be a flickr group for sharing and discussion gosh how fun be sure to help spread the word i can t wait to see all the finished panda cuties _ v ami g posted by amigurumi girl at 8 05 am 20 comments labels amigurumi free patterns thursday june 04 2009 have a munny day i ve been doing a variety of things around here mostly mudane and not worth posting about my daughter s school semester is one half day away from the end and i have good intentions for summer vacation i hope i can keep the motivation up here s some things i ve done recently that maybe you d like to see or maybe not but i m posting it anyway p i love munny dolls and dunny dolls and all those weird vinyl toys etc i d start a collection if i didn t feel so guilty about wasting money and space here s my first munny sketch done in pencil then in ink i think i should get some 4 inch dolls to do with my daughter this summer here he is colored in photoshop and made into a dorky wallpaper for my desktop hee in amigurumi news here s a little guy i started yesterday no plans no direction i just wanted to feel the calming rhythm of hook and yarn being stitched into something anything this so far it has green cat eyes i bought online eons ago but i m not sure i really intend for it to become a cat we ll see oh yea we were also watching cardcaptor sakura again kero chan check i also made this crocheted flower with beads for a hair tie woot the yarn is cotton i ve not done much with cotton before but i m thinking i want to do lots more i hope you re all doing well out there live long and prosper yes i saw the new star trek and i loved it casting was great i m excited for the future of the series what else have i been wasting my time with instead of making amigurumi and writing patterns watching too much heroes watched all of season 3 in a few days whew addicting stay cool _ v posted by amigurumi girl at 10 57 am 6 comments labels amigurumi art excuses and other ramblings other projects wednesday march 25 2009 a doodle a day keeps the doldrums away i m trying to dig out my creative self again my true creative self that once was when i was much younger i was a fount of creativity back then and now this dried up well only trickles the occassional original idea sigh what happened how does one fight the daily doldrums how do we stay positive and optimistic in a world that sometimes seems to do nothing but spiral into a dark abyss of wow ok that s definitely not how to stay happy hahah let s get away from that line of thought so i ve been doing some doodling i figured that should help at least a little bit these came out of my pens throughout last week here are some happy dreaming little flowers a girl and a dog looks more like a weird baby kangaroo or something at her feet some owls love birds and fish that could be hot air balloons maybe if you looked at it with squinty eyes _ v posted by amigurumi girl at 6 12 pm 8 comments labels art monday march 16 2009 happy day today is a good day i think it s a good day at least it s a better day than some of the recent days i ve had in a long while the weather is mild with the smell of fresh rain in the air the flowers on our balcony are all happily blooming the pets are at peace the house is in order mostly acceptably so anyway and there are a lot of cheery posts on other blogs read about making butter at angry chicken especially the post that inspired her over at portland food and drink com i don t know why reading about that made me feel good then go and read alice s insanity at finslippy that was hilarious well i thought it was probably because it sounds like she s my husband s long lost twin though he s not that bad _ i know making this blanket has been making me happier too when i pick it up and work on it the colors scream happy happy i m behind in this soft waves ripple blanket making craze i know but it still had to be done this one is being made with misc left over skeins so the colors and weights are varying this other one next photo took me over a year to do becuase i procrastinated that much and was requested in those particular colors it was requested extra long too so that could be another reason why it took so long to do anyway happy day to you all _ v ps thanks for all the posts from comments on projects to just plain good wishes its been very nice thank you posted by amigurumi girl at 10 40 am 4 comments labels excuses and other ramblings other projects friday february 13 2009 zoe lily belle pattern correction oh my goodness please forgive me i thought that pattern was complete but one of you lovely readers celene have called to my attention that i have left poor zoe armless i did warn i am a horrible pattern writer sweat still there s no excuse here is the pattern correction or rather addition for her arms i confess i m not sure if it s exactly right i have seemed to misplace the pattern notes for that project so please please don t hesistate to let me know if it s wrong again i apologize and i hope this didn t cause too much frustration for anyone out there zoe lily belle arms arm make 2 start with magic ring of 5 ch or however you like to start your spiral circular shape using 5 ch row 2 2sc in each ch 10 row 3 2sc in first ch 1 sc in next five times 15 row 4 6 sc in each in the first sc on row 5 make a cluster this is the thumb i used a 5sc cluster i think experiment

them as you see fit when attaching them just make sure the thumbs are facing the right way facing forward if you wish for her to seem relaxed with palms toward her sides ok i hope that makes sense i
