Haven't given you guys a #sneakypeaky in a while! What do you think it is?

PHEW! 

It's been a very long week. My fiance and I have been working on moving into a house! We got everything IN the house... unpacked is a whole new story. Here are a few more picture for all you lovely people. The ruffle scarf was done for a lovely person who requested it for their mom. 

The Jack Skellington was a creation of my own design! Using a Chibi pattern that I have been working on for a little while, this was a special request for a co-worker. 

The same co-worker also requested for a Doctor Who scarf. Originally, it was supposed to come out 10 feet long! That seemed a little much, so I shortened it. The pattern for this scarf can be found here:

As always, if you like what you see, please comment, like, and even share so that people can see the lovely work that can be created with yarn!

'Til next time kiddies!

Ok, so not crochet, but he is my baby. And a very grumpy baby at that. We just -love- bath time.

Well, the holidays are over (at least Christmas is). I had several big orders to complete for the holidays, and I got them all done in time! (BARELY!)

I am posting one tonight, but more will come soon. I just don't want to bombard everyone all at once. Got to savor some of the goodies, right?

Anyhow, without further ado -- Deadpool! And Ponypool!

Chibi was done with my own written pattern (I might have said it before, but when I am done proofing the pattern, I will post it). The Ponypool was done with a pattern from Little Yarn Friends​.

Pattern found here:

#sneakypeaky Just so you know I'm not dead. Although it feels like it with all the orders I'm working on. Can you guess what it is?

[slip-stitch-sam]

So many orders before Christmas!

Any tips or anything for beginners? I've been trying to get the whole crochet thing but all I can do is the one string thing that's like a chain? I can't even do the circle???? I have no idea how to do this and YouTube isn't much help either. I love this but it's harder than I thought it would be

The best tip I can give for any beginner is don’t give up! You may feel discouraged at times when practicing, but it will become second nature to you overtime. I would suggest watching the Crochet Guru’s beginner videos (if you haven’t already) on the basics since she explains very slowly and with details. Here is one where she talks about how to make chains: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GjoVWbYhWucIf you have any other further questions or if you want me to explain more with a video tutorial myself or a typed description with pictures, please let me know and I’ll be more than happy to assist you, so I hope this all helps!

[slip-stitch-sam]

My biggest advice: keep practicing (and don’t give up, but that’s been said already ^_~*)! There is so much to learn about crocheting, and there are so many ways to do so many different things. Don’t get discouraged if you find something you can’t do. You might not be able to do it now, but maybe in a few projects, you will! Practice, practice, practice!

Does anyone else get the same enjoyment that I do when your yarn does this? #crochet #crochetfeels
