🦄 Unicorn Lily 🦄

I wanted to give you a little insight on how fun it is to crochet Lyra’s patterns, as they are a big reason I found the fun in crocheting again.

Monday: First off is the boxy head. I can literally not describe how relaxing it is to crochet a box. Could do it all day! Why? I have no idea but it looks so satisfying to me 😄

Tuesday: In the evening I get the body done. As I make the first ears my heart jumps because it is just to cute. But I have to work so there is no time to make another one 🥱

Wednesday: A horn for breakfast and then starts the crocheting of the hair. Crocheting with the colorful just makes me happy 🍡

Thursday: More hair! I thought I would get tired of the hair but instead it makes me hungry for sweets 🤔

Friday: Debate in my head a thousand times if the color of her dress is right… is it to pink? Does it look like the flesh costume that Lady Gaga wore?

…. Eventually I keep the flesh costume… Lily can pull it off.

Saturday: Tiny ingredients are hoping of my crocheting hook and are stealing my heart ❤️

Now just the sewing… oh sewing how I love thee. No, but its actually very simple to get the boxy head where it is supposed to be and get the rest on correctly. Lyra has lots of pictures and manages to tell exactly where each part should go.

As you can see I just had a blast crocheting this unicorn and it is something I will proudly put on my cupboard.

I hope this project is not to pink for you😂 I vow to use less pink in my next projects to give your eyes a little pause 😄

I dont know who needs to hear this but if your hobby starts to not be fun, put it down. It's a hobby, not a full time job or something, don't burn yourself out on something that should be entertaining. Physically can't bring yourself to draw? Put it down. Bored with a crochet project? Put it down. Dropped stitches while knitting and filled with rage? Put it down. It'll come back to you

Whoever needs to hear this (me probably) :D

Its just insane how old the earth is and that we are just a little blip in time!

A sunny day in Essen, seeing my family who lives there and my mother who visits there this week. It was a wonderful day as we went out to walk the dog through the fields. We ate some burgers and talked a lot. I drove six ours that day to meet them but it was all worth it. Don't know if anyone else feels that way but to me it seems like tomorrow will be the end of the world. I hope I am wrong.
