I want my own Chihuahua SO BAD!!! But a third dog is just not in the budget right now … not to mention that my Border Collie hates small dogs…

Just look at these fun loving Chihuahua’s! They’re ready to go to the beach or a luau or even just to a party. They’re wearing their hula skirts and lei’s, which, of course makes them Chi-Hula-Hula’s.

Is your Life-Like Pet ready to have fun in the sun? Well, here is the perfect outfit, a Hawaiian Hula Skirt and Lei.

Perfect for the beginning knitter who is afraid of cables, but who loves the look. This “mock” cable is easy to perform and gives great results.

Here he comes to save the day! He’s ready to rescue kitty cats from tree’s and his favorite job is scaring monsters from under little beds.

Hail to the Chief! Strike up the band, America, we’re on our way to a historic presidency. Show your support by making your own Mr. President doll.

Here he comes to save the day!!! Yes, it’s Buster the Super Bunny! No rescue situation is too small for him – from rescuing kitties in trees to saving the world. Buster is always ready to be helpful.

Cherry (also known as Cher-bear, Bear-bear, and Chubby Girl) was my family’s well loved, always happy, always smiling, fatty pants beagle. She died early in the morning on June 27th, 2008. This is our memorial tribute to her. I realize your beagle most likely does not look like her. She had unique coloring, and was called a red beagle. You may ...

Meet Vampire Kitty. He’s out to scare up a little fun this Halloween season. And he’s feisty enough to find fun wherever he goes!

She’s fun, artistic and sassy, as you might have guessed from her name. Yet, Sassy’s favorite past time is cuddling with her best friend on the couch.

I think a lion, the king of the jungle, is the perfect guardian for your tape measurer (especially if those sock monkeys get too close…) But he’s cute enough that he’ll be fun to play with while measuring all your important projects.

Introducing the Huggables! Say hi to Baby Jessie. She’s the perfect size for a toddler or child to carry around and love!

Introducing the Huggables! I’d like to introduce Danielle. She’s the fashionable one. Dressed in her turtle neck, skirt and beret, she’s ready for a day of shopping with her friends at the mall.

Introducing the Huggables! I’d like you to meet Georgie. She’s wearing her school uniform and has her messenger bag and she’s ready to go to school.

Houston, there are no problems here! Get ready to blast off with the newest addition to my Little People line of amigurumi crochet patterns.

This adorable little Butterfly Bug-a-boo pattern is your free gift from me.

Cute little bee pattern. Finished product stands about 3 1/2 inches tall.

Cute little lady bug pattern. Finished product sits about 3 1/2 inches tall.

I’ve had many people email me and tell me, “I bought your Scurvy Pirate pattern, but I made it into an anime’ character I like,” or “I bought your Boy Wizard pattern and made it look like C3PO!”

Macaroni is ready to come in from the cold and cuddle up on the couch and get warm!

Is it possible for a tape measurer to be any cuter than this? I don’t think so… And, she’s sure to brighten up any sewing, crocheting, quilting or knitting project you are currently needing to measure!

“That’s a long little doggy!” That’s what my husband said the first time I showed him this cute puppy dog. And thus, he was named.

Snips, snails and puppy dog tails. Is it possible for a tape measurer to be any cuter than this? I don’t think so… And, he’s sure to brighten up any sewing, crocheting, quilting or knitting project you currently need to measure!

I’m not sure having a sock monkey guarding your tape measurer is the best idea in the world. After all, tape measurers tend to get in enough trouble on their own. Throw a sock monkey into the mix, and heaven only knows what will happen next.

Ho ho ho!! Yes, it’s Santa Claus! He’s making his list and checking it twice. I hope you’re on his nice list!

Not one to cackle, or scare young children, Broomhilda the Witch would prefer to give you a treat!

Gobble, gobble, gobble, it’s TomTurkey! This guy is so cute, you’re not going to want to eat him. You’re going to want to let him sit on the counter and help you make Thanksgiving dinner!

Cuter than a real armadillo, Armando is less messy, too. And the best part is that you get to choose whether Armando the Armadillo comes out dead or alive. He’s cute and funny either way.

Gary is a cute and cuddly scarecrow, who will brighten up any Halloween display. He can also brighten up any child’s face!

Quite possibly the only Irish pumpkin boy available in the land, Jack is quite cute and totally easy to make up.

Easily customizable to look like YOUR loved one in the armed services, this doll stands about 9” tall when finished. Now your child won’t have to miss Daddy, Mommy or other family members while they are serving their country -- they can carry them around and give them hugs all day, or night, long!

Just when you thought it was safe to go back in the water…

The second addition to my Little People line, Little Brother is full of snips and snails and puppy dog tails. I’ve got three boys, so I always think of making boy dolls. :)

This little granny is NOT going to stay home and bake. Nope, she’s going out with her friends to museums, restaurants and even the beach. She’s full of energy and is living life to the fullest!

The first in the Little People series, Little Sister holds endless possibilities.

Abracadabra! Bring a little magic into the life of someone you love with this adorable Boy Wizard doll pattern.

This super simple pattern is perfect -- perfect for beginners at amigurumi, perfect for using up those tiny balls of left over yarn in your stash, and perfect for those with creative minds who can see all the hidden possibilities of Little People!

When my sock monkey obsession first began, I thought, I bet it would be easier to knit a sock monkey than to sew one. But I could not find a knitted sock monkey pattern anywhere on the web. So I set out to design a pattern myself.

The same pattern as my crocheted Sock Monkey pattern, this one includes a Santa hat and beard, in place of the fez hat.

I’m addicted to sock monkeys, I admit it. This is my crocheted version of a sock monkey. The pattern includes instructions to make the fez (hat), too.

Sammy the Seal is an adorable seal who’s ready to perform his way into your heart.

Argh, Matey! This scurvy pirate is set to sail around the Carribean with all his scurvy friends.

This pattern includes the instructions to make Ally the Cat, Sunshine the Teddy Bear, Dangles the Monkey, Sassy the Bunny and Skye the Dog.

Named after my own real life kitty, this adorable crochet pattern is fun, versatile and EASY!

Always monkeying around, Dangles is quite the “class clown.” He loves to hang around with his friends and, of course, bananas are his favorite meal.

Frank is super cute and easy to make -- he took me less than two hours to make and design. He is pictured here with his sister, Francis, to show you color possibilities.

Skye the Dog is ready to kick back next to you in your arm chair. He’s a fun, mellow kind of guy, and, the best part? He never sheds.

Bright and adorable, how could you look at Sunshine the Teddy Bear and not smile?

This was the first hat pattern I ever designed, and maybe the first anything pattern. I love this pattern so much that I probably made 50 hats from it. LOL. Hopefully, you love it, too.
