♥ Winter Wonderland BLOGMAS 2021

Leave a Comment

Hey Lovelies! This year we will do another Christmas Craft Along, or Blogmas, or however you wanna call it! I’m excited to do this this year again! I somehow always look forward to making those blogs every year. They make me happy, even though it is a lot of work as well and coming up with something new each year isn’t easy either. But I managed.

This year will be a tiny bit different, I will make a blog post every other day, not each day like I usually do. I will post every uneven day, so dec 1st, dec 3rd etc. I hope that’s fine by you!

Last year I did all crochet items, check them here if you missed them!

This time we will do all kinds of crafts, like paper art, crochet, clay, etc. All kinds of things, but I am sure you will manage to make all, even if you are not familiar with the medium we’re working with!

It has a Winter Wonderland theme!
We will basically make one thing in the end, but all the items we will make it separate and assemble it together along the way. Of course you don’t have to make everything, for example if you only like the tree or the fairies, just make those and decorate your house with it.

This is what we will make in the end:

The whole DIY/pattern is already available as PDF on my Ko-Fi, in case you wanna start early or don’t want any advertisement in the blogs. A little extra in the PDF is a story line. You won’t get that in the blogs! Go to my Ko-Fi shop now and buy it!

I hope you are just as excited as I am, I had a lot of fun making this and coming up with all those Winter Wonderland parts.

Stay Creative!

Love
Danielle

PS. Don’t forget to mark dec 1st on your calendar! I’ll see you then!

♥ Day24; Candy Cane Amigurumi

Leave a Comment

Hey Lovelies! I can’t believe it’s the last day of Blogmas 2020! Did you enjoy it this year?! I hope you did. I loved designing all the items. We are not there yet, today we still have to make this cute candy cane! Although he doesn’t taste so sweet, he does look sweet, like you wanna put it in your pocket. Have fun today!

Candy Cane made with Amigurumi

For this pattern you’ll need:
♥ Yarn in the color White and Red. (I used Stylecraft Special DK)
♥ A bit of extra Black yarn to create it’s mouth.
♥ Crochet hook. (I used 3mm)
♥ Stuffing.
♥ Yarn Needle.
♥ Sewing Pins.
♥ Stitch Marker.
♥ Safety Eyes, 6mm.
♥ Wire.

Stitches used (US Terms):
Magic Ring.
CH = Chain.
SLST = Slip Stitch.
FSC = Foundation Single Crochet.
SC = Single Crochet.
ST = Stitch.
Inc = Increase.
Dec = Decrease.
(…) = Repeat the space in brackets the given number of times.
[…] = Total number of stitches.

This pattern is made with continues rounds, unless stated otherwise. Use a stitch marker to mark your first/last stitch of your row.

♥ Pattern Candy Cane

Cane
Use the color White.
While making the cane, stuff along the way. Place the eyes along the way as well, 1 between row 7&8 and the other between row 12&13.

1: 4SC in a Magic Ring. [4]
2: 2SC in each st around. [8]
3: 8SC. [8]
|
26: 8SC. [8]
Try to slide in the wire here, it probably won’t go in easily but just try to wiggle it through.
27: Dec around. [4]
Fasten off and weave in tail.

Red Stripe
Use the color Red.

Make an x amount of FSC. The reason I don’t give and amount is that you sew the first part to the cane right after you start making the stripe, along you go wrap the stripe around the cane, it can differ how many FSC you need. When you have enough to reach the other end of the cane fasten off and sew it tight. Weave in tail.

♥ Assembling

Whenever I start assembling Amigurumi, I’d like to use sewing pins to position all parts first until I’m happy. Then I will sew them on. I recommend you do so as well.

There isn’t any to assemble here. Just bent the cane in the right shape and then with the piece of black yarn, create his mouth.
If you want to hang it, don’t forget to add a loop to the top.

I hope you enjoyed today’s pattern! I think it’s adorable. If you decided to make any of the blogmas amigurumi, please show me on Twitter or Instagram  with #DelinleaDIY. I’d love to see what you make using my patterns.

And don’t forget that you can get all Blogmas patterns ad free in a PDF bundle in my Ko-Fi shop (English US terms and Dutch). The link you can find on the Blogmas Page here! (Etsy might follow later).

Have a wonderful day and Merry Christmas!

Love
Danielle
