This pattern is being released in honor of my cat Batman’s 2 year anniversary of his death. I designed this pattern to help me heal from his death, to squeeze during the rough patches of healing. Date of his passing is June 13, 2018.

This potholder measures approximately 8 1/2” by 11” and doesn’t take a full 1.75oz skein to make. You can make this with solid colors or variegated.

This pattern is designed for small hands and measures about 7 - 7 1/2” each dishcloth. Two dishcloths in this set are round and the other 2 are square. One skein of each color is sufficient to make a whole set of 4 dishcloths.

These headband style earwarmers are made with bulky weight yarn and only one 3oz skein is needed to make one. I used 2 special stitches in my pattern: the linked stitch and front post stitch. I also used the single crochet foundation method instead of the chain method. The pattern is written for 3 adult head sizes, but a couple of testers were ...

The Catherine’s Wheel st was used in the body of the bookmark and I enjoyed designing this guy very much. Head and body were all single crochets and done in a continuous round. Make sure to use dk weight yarn in this bookmark because worsted weight yarn would make him too big. Caron Simply Soft yarns are not a true worsted weight like they say ...

Tiny Tim is made with Hobby Lobby’s I Love This Cotton yarn but it’s not a true worsted weight yarn like it says it is. Thus the reason I suggest sport weight yarn instead of worsted weight yarn if you want the size I made him. You can use other yarns if you wish for a bigger bear or thinner yarns/thread for a smaller bear and appropriate size ...

Each Premier Sweet Roll cake is 5oz and I used 3 of them, with little bits of each left over. So this starfish pillow takes almost 15ozs total of worsted weight yarn.

Only 1 5oz skein of Premier Sweet Rolls in the color melon pop was used. Any worsted weight yarn can be used. If you wish for a smaller or larger pillow, choose thinner or thicker yarns and hook size according to yarn.

This pattern takes quite a bit of dark sage and peach but not full skeins of each color. As far as the rest of the colors go, small amounts are used.

Bottom of basket measures 5 1/2” wide, 3 1/2” long, and the height of the basket is 2 1/2”.

Once again I used my Wilma mermaid pattern to make Shelly but had to seriously revamp the pattern to make her as small as she is, plus I couldn’t use the crocodile stitch in her tail like I did for Wilma and Pierre since she’s so small. She doesn’t take much yarn at all and she works up quickly.

This pattern is modified from my Wilma Mermaid pattern to be a merman. All notes there would be the same for this one as well.

Wilma is designed specifically for babies as long as safety eyes aren’t used but can be made for any child or adult. She is about 12” in height.

I used the camel stitch for the shell, and then rolled it up, using a few sewing stitches randomly to hold it in place. For the legs and head I used standard shaping techniques to get the look I wanted. I used a drawing by an artist to create this design.

This is a 16” x 16” square pillow with a 3d shooting star added to the top. I went with a gradient effect to make the pillow look like a dark night sky and I used the bean stitch for a nice texture. If you don’t have Caron Simply Soft yarn, you must use a dk weight yarn to get the correct measurements because Caron Simply Soft yarns are not a t...

I love Christmas and snowmen so I just had to design one. You definitely need one full skein of white yarn since he takes a lot, a good portion of black, smaller amounts of kelly green, butterscotch(yellow) and soft taupe. Ribbon/trim, buttons and other embellishments of choice are also needed to complete him.

I used 100% cotton yarn for the cornucopia piece to help it hold it’s shape. For the gourds, I used acrylic.

Buying one skein of each color is plenty of yarn, I only used about half of each skein with maybe a little more than half of the yellow. Small amounts of black and kelly green are also needed. Plastic canvas was used to help keep the bottom shaped properly before stuffing the body.

I used red, white and blue colors but this pillow doesn’t take much of each color. Instead of sewing the top shut you can add a zipper to turn it in to a coin purse. Special st used in this pattern is the cluster spike st.

THIS IS NOT A TOY, ONLY A DECORATION.

Joy Bunny comes from Joy Bear with a few modifications and she stands about 11 1/2” tall. She is also designed for babies as a no sew pattern. Only 1 4oz skein of the main color is needed and small amounts of the other colors used.

These headband style earwarmers are made with worsted weight yarn and only one 3oz skein is needed to make one. I used 2 special stitches in my pattern: the linked stitch and front post stitch. I also used the single crochet foundation method instead of the chain method. The pattern is written for 3 adult head sizes, but a couple of testers wer...

I used 1 4 oz skein of Lily Sugar and Cream for the main color but you won’t use the entire skein. Small amounts of the same yarn of the other colors. She stands about 11 1/2” when using the suggested yarn.
