Long term effect of recovering from covid is fatigue. Lots of it, haha…

Awhile ago, I made the 4 starter Pokémon for my daughter’s 1-yr “doljabi” (a Korean tradition where they choose an item- or in this case, Pokémon- that will indicate their future).

I finally came back to write out the pattern and instead… came out with something completely new😅

Which do you like better? Should I include instructions in the pattern for assembling both? Hmm

Happy New Year 💛

Woke up feeling tons better. Good start to #2022 !

My goal is to create at least 5 patterns by other artists this year. Sometimes, designing takes up everything and I forget to enjoy!

Fun fact - I was super mesmerized by @bigbebez ADORABLE animals back when I first learned how to crochet (2018). I remember thinking to myself… there’s no way I’ll ever be able to make that! But that’s the beauty of it 😅 it’s quite simple to pick up on. I’m so glad I got around to finally make this chubby squirrel and meet the lovely designer behind it.

Parker the Polar Bear is excited to shop for all the holiday clearance today 😆

Thanks for all the love you gave to our little guy! He was meant to be a super simple design. (Sometimes, the challenge is with not over complicating things!) I love how different he came out simply by adjusting the yarn weight.

Many of you helped me with great suggestions for what to do for his hat! I hit a serious creative block and decided to publish it without it. Until I update the pattern, this orange just seems *right* 💁🏻‍♀️

A year ago, I was still figuring out this whole pattern writing thing… I had published Jingle’s pattern with a ton of errors! There ended up being so many that I couldn’t bother to even try and fix it 😅 so I pulled it from my shop altogether.

T-2 days until Christmas!🎄

It’s been a bit drizzly and cold here in the Bay Area but I’m happy to be spending this break on a staycation.

The holidays weren’t always the happiest times for my family growing up (as we rarely did anything special together/times were chaotic). I remember feeling anxiety over the loneliness that would creep up without fail each year. If that’s you, pls remember you are not alone and that you are loved!

Fast forward a few years… I’m glad to be creating new holiday traditions with the ones who do bring me joy in our little nuclear family. I wanna do all the cheesy stuff I didn’t in the past like bake cookies, watch holiday movies, and more.

My toddler picked out a gingerbread decorating kit at her daycare 😆 so I guess that’ll also be a part of our family bonding festivities. I’m thankful to God each day for bringing healing and renewal into my life!

Never posted a photo of my upcycled coasters! I added some crab stitched borders with sparkly white yarn and some glittery ribbon. Can never go wrong with the bling bling ✨

team faces or no faces?? tell me below ⬇️

from my own personal experience… I’ve found that amigurumi with faces are way more popular at craft fairs than no faces!

one gives a chibi look and the other a more realistic feel. I’m torn!
