New no-sew flamingo lovey pattern! After spending years making crochet bird patterns, I finally got around to combining this interest with something else I enjoy… loveys! I've wanted to create a bird lovey for a long time, and I'm so happy to finally introduce this flamingo pattern. It's the very first bird design in my lovey pattern side project… and it probably won't be the last! I'd love to hear what bird you're like to see as a lovey.

To celebrate the new pattern, all my crochet patterns on Etsy and my website will be 25% off until Tuesday. Even pattern bundles!

When Rhino heard that Capybara was known for making friends with everyone, he decided to see if the stories were true. One woodland adventure later, you can see how they ended up snuggling together in this tree stump like they'd known each other forever. Sometimes the most unlikely friendships turn out to be the strongest. Would you spend a day with a capybara if you had the chance?

This little Blue and Gold Macaw has been searching high and low for the coziest nest. Maybe this mossy hideaway is the perfect spot to settle in!

If you were a bird, where would you build your dream nest?

New Amazon parrot pattern! After several months away from my bird squad series, I'm excited to introduce this blue-fronted amazon parrot pattern.

This pattern was actually created because of a special request from one of you. Now I know, it took far too long to make it, but I finally did, and I'm so glad it happened.

To celebrate the new pattern, all my crochet patterns on Etsy and my website will be 25% off until Friday. Even pattern bundles!

Sharing another sketch of my next crochet pattern. It's been a while, but a new member of the bird squad is coming! Can you guess from my drawing what this parrot is called?

All will be revealed on Monday, June 15th, when the pattern is released.

I can't get over how cute this smaller version of my recently published Galo de Barcelos crochet pattern is. Made with #2 sport weight cotton yarn, this little guy fits right in the palm of my hand. This size also helps it stand on its own a bit better and just gives off that "little lucky charm" vibe, which is perfect since this galo is often seen as a symbol of good fortune. So, this smaller size would be great to keep with you at all times.

What do you think? Do you prefer making amigurumi that are larger statement pieces, or palm-sized versions?🐓

Learn from my mistake. It's darn near impossible to get a good photo of a pickle when the background is also green. Camouflage mode activated! Did you know, my positive pickle pattern is free? Just head on over to my website to get yourself a copy.

Galo showed up to the park ready to make new friends. But the local roosters took one look at him and said, “Absolutely not, sir. We know an imposter when we see one.” 🐓😂

He tried his best to fit in. He strutted confidently, pecked at the grass, and even practiced his best rooster pose. But the boys weren’t sticking around long enough to hear him out. Poor Galo, just wanted acceptance. Honestly though, I wouldn't mind hanging out with this handsome crochet rooster, would you?

The Galo de Barcelos is one of Portugal’s most famous symbols, known for the legend of a miraculous rooster that saved an innocent pilgrim from execution. Because of that story, the rooster became a symbol of luck, honesty, faith, and good fortune. As someone who loves birds and now calls Portugal home, creating my own crochet version of this iconic rooster felt really special to me. 🐓❤️

To celebrate the release of the Galo de Barcelos pattern, all of my crochet patterns are 25% OFF until the 19th! 😊

A closer look at one of my favorite details from my upcoming pattern. You're seeing the tail of the Galo de Barcelos, embroidered with lots of care.

This iconic Portuguese symbol is often decorated with flowers, plants, and those classic bright red hearts. But there’s no single “right” way to do it. The possibilities are endless, and that’s what makes it so special.

My pattern includes embroidery suggestions to guide you, but you always have the freedom to make your galo truly your own.❤️🐓

Since my positive pickle drawing so many kind words, I thought I'd share with you the drawing I made for my next design. Living in Portugal and loving birds, it was obvious one day I'd be making a galo de Barcelos. I just needed the motivation to complete it.

I'm currently taking some Portuguese language classes and my teacher happens to be from Barcelos. So, I said why not? I finished the pattern, and even got help from my teacher to translate this pattern into Portuguese.

This pattern probably won't sell well; it is a very niche subject. Not many people know about this bird. But sometimes you have to stop and smell the roses, or just make something for the love it, and that's what this pattern is to me. 😊

Stay tuned for this pattern's release on May 15th

Life’s been feeling a bit heavy lately, hasn’t it? With everything going on, it’s easy to feel a little, well, sour.

That's why I decided to make something small and uplifting. Meet Pickle, a tiny pal with a big personality and one simple mission, to make you smile. Because even if life turns a pickle sour, it can still look on the bright side. 💚

I’m giving this pattern away for free so you can make your own, gift one, or just enjoy a cozy moment creating something lighthearted. You can find the pattern on my website.

And to spread a little extra joy, I’m also having a 25% off sale on all crochet patterns until Tuesday the 28th.

Friday I'll be posting a free pattern and I had the urge to share with you my sketch of that design. It's a positive pickle!

Life's pretty tough right now. To try and lift our spirits, I made this positive pickle pattern that will be available on my website and to all my subscribers this Friday!

So, if you want to see what the real pattern looks like, subscribe to my newsletter so you don't miss out on this pickle's debut!

Seagull wandered into the woods and found a mossy seat made just for him. His little feet don’t quite reach the ground, but that’s okay. He’s enjoying the spongy, soft feel of the moss against his dangly legs. Be honest, would you do the same?

Gloomy Shroom keeps meeting new mushrooms on his travels, but none of them feel quite like Family to him, so he keeps searching. Did you know Gloomy shroom is based off of the real life mushroom Amanite muscaria, commonly known as the fly agaric? I wonder what type of mushroom Gloomy found in this photo. There are so many types!

Spotted this little quaker up in the trees. I know they’re considered invasive in some places, but I can’t help loving the rare moments I see one. Do you ever spot parrots where you live?

Just a chill little capybara enjoying the slow life. No rush and no worries. Wouldn't it be great to find a friend like that? One that exudes good vibes and encourages you to eat a lot of salads.🌿
