I never saw the movie "My Neighbor Totoro", but this one looked so cute! When I was making him, I started watching the movie and I really liked it ^^ This one is pretty big! And it took a long time to make. Made with a 3.5 mm crochet hook and 'Scheepjeswol'.
I made this Enterprise for my boyfriend. My hands are pretty small for a young woman, so, as the picture shows, it really is a mini Enterprise. I made this one with 'Scheepjeswol' and a 3,5 mm crochet hook.
I found a cute Kirby pattern
on the internet! And it is for free ^^ He's so tiny!! I gave him the
colors of one of the choises of Super Smash Bros (Brawl). I guess I
wanted to be different, hihi! His cute Mario hat is removable, and yes, I
have put it on my head just for laughs XD
Mr. cactus
This one is my second amiguumi, Mr. Cactus ^^ This cutie comes from the
same book as the cup I made before. The book also has a female version,
which is short, fat, and has a flower on her head. Who knows I'll make
her one day. But I did find out www.ravelry.com and on that website
there are thousands of free patterns available. So many choises!!!

My first amigurumi!
I made my first amigurumi! I figured out the magic loop to begin amigurumi and from there it's easy when you only need to decrease and/or increase single stitches. I got my design from a cute book which I've got for my birthday from two friends of mine. This is the book that I have:
The thingy that I made is a cup of cappuccino with an adorable face! The only thing is that I learned that the stitches are closer together when I put more tension on the thread. So... the bottom of the cup is bigger then the top part... But hey, I'm still learning. And I'm learning still, because I'm making another creature from this book, which is a cactus in a pot :P I'm also proud that I started crochet. My grandmother, who died when I was eleven, used to croched. I loved her work! She had doilies and filet crochet against the window of the backdoor. Just gorgeous! I'm hoping to figure out how to start a filet crochet and how to make a cute edge around it, I'll be amazed!! I wish I could make the things that my grandmother onse made and one day I will be able to do so. I anyone knows a good video tutorial or a tutorial with pictures, please let me know :D

Mario stars in plush form!!
I made these a while back, but I wanted to show them anyway, because they're so cute! I made them by looking for a perfect star by looking on google for a colouring page with a big star on it.
Very simple, yet effective ;) Thay are made from a piece of towel. I'm thinking about selling them for €20,- each. I'm not sure how to send them to a buyer or how to get the money from the customer. Let me know how you do it when you sell some of your stuff ^^

Sock monkey couple
Hello everybody! I decided to start my own vlog. I'll be putting things here that I made or that I love!
I hope you like it! I'll start with two sock monkeys that I just made. They are made from two socks that are from the same package. I showed my best friends my creations that I put on http://femjo.deviantart.com/gallery/32745522# and I told her that the monkeys were made by one pair of socks. She and her mother loved them so much, that we went to the mall to look for socks. This is the end result:
They totally loved them! Her mam said she wanted to give them a home on their couch! The fun part (for me) is that my best friend wanted the striped one when they were just socks, and now she wants the one with the flowers ^^ They haven't seen the monkeys in real life and I'm curious how they are going to react! I'm excited!
Would you like to make one too and would you like to know how I made them? This was the guide that I used when I made my first sock monkey:
