Autumn

♥ Autumn Amigurumi’s

Leave a Comment

Hey Lovelies! Are you seeing signs of Autumn arriving where you live as well?! Here the weather is acting like it’s fall. I love it a lot. Because of Fall coming I thought of making a overview with Amigurumi patterns I made over time! Some you might remember, other you might have forgotten. So, let’s do this.

♥ Autumn Spirit

This adorable spirit I made some years ago, and I still love it a lot, it’s not too hard to make, and quite fun that hang everywhere as decoration. Now looking him up, I realized that I had a lot more ideas to make as spirits.. hmm maybe it’s time to make some more. The pattern you can find here!

♥ Adorable Acorn

Do you like picking up Acorns as well in Autumn? I usually do, and put them everywhere. It’s magical what Nature can create, and I often think we don’t enjoy it enough. Nature gives us so much, and what do we give back?!

Anyway, this little one you should definitely make, it will keep you company during the cold days! The pattern you can find here!

♥ Little Foxy

Why did I only make a fox related to Autumn?! I guess I need to do something about that. Any suggestions?! Leave them below if you have. But this foxy is really sweet and always want’s to be around you, maybe as a keychain, so he can travel around with you to see the worlds. He’s really curious! The pattern you can find here!

Little Foxy

♥ Mushroom Buddy

Why do I feel like this mushroom buddy needs some friends?! Maybe because there are so many types of Mushrooms! I can probably can come up with a few more designs. But for now you have to do it with this one only! The pattern you can find here!

Mushroom Buddy

I won’t post the Halloween related amigurumi’s here, since I will make a post about those next month! So wait a little for that or go here, if you are looking for those already.

I hope you enjoy those patterns. Some have been a while since I made them, and then remembering how many more ideas I have. I guess I will be busy for a while! (I’ve some huge yarn stash that really needs to decrease xD) Let’s get crafty!

Ah, and if you made any, don’t forget to show me on Instagram or Twitter with #DelinleaDIY

Have a wonderful /Autumn/ day and I’ll see you next week!

Assembling

By the use of sewing pins, you can position all of your parts first to see if you like it. When you are happy,  you can sew it on. I recomment you doing so.

First, cut of 14 pieces of white yarn, about 7 cm. (You’ll gonna cut them shorter later, so it doesn’t come very close). Those pieces of yarn we are gonna add to the sides of little foxy’s face, around the edge of the white. This with be fluffy. Add 7 on each side, 3 front, 4 behind those, if you don’t know how to do this, look at the pictures, you basicly tie a knot.
unraffle the pieces of yarn with a needle, and if you want you can brush it a little more to get even more fluff.
Now it needs to be trimmed, cut it a little longer as you want them, you’ll probably loose lengthe if you shape them. And cut those in the shape you like.

Time to add his arms and legs, sew those on, but make sure there’s enough space to sew his belly on as well.
On his backside, his tail will be added. Just play around until you like how he looks.
Last add his ears, slightly curved, just above his fluffy white cheeks.
From the black felt, cut his little nose and mouth, and glue those on.

And he is already finished! What do you think?! Liked this cute little foxy pattern? I just love designing small things, I’d probably can go smaller, hmm, but that’s for another time!

Have a wonderful day!

Hey Lovelies! Do you enjoy fall so far?! Here there is a lot of wind and rain, but I love it, specially cause al lot of fruits and nuts are ready to collect. I love going out in nature and see what foods I can find. It’s a good feeling to work for your food =P. Do you do this as well? Or do you prefer to stay inside with this weather? ^_^

Sew the ears on to of the head of the Bat and his belly to the body. His legs go right beside, slightly lower his belly. On His back you will sew his wings. Position them however you like.

If you want you can sew on a little mouth, I didn’t because I like it this way xD.

I hope you enjoyed this new bat pattern and let me know if you made it! I always love to see works that are made by you, using my patterns, I always feel so loved!

Have a wonderful day!

♥ Papercraft; Fall Decor

Leave a Comment

Hey Lovelies! I really needed a small break from my crochet works, I sometimes forget other crafts excist as well! There is so much fun stuff out there. I really needed to go back to my first love for paper. You can create so much with it, either flat or 3D. For today I created something flat, tho I think it’s very cute to put somewhere in your home, some nice little fall decor. And it also includes some handlettering (I don’t explane how, but there are plenty tutorials out there). I hope you will enjoy this easy, but fun craft!

For this DIY you’ll need:
♥ Cardboard, in Autumn colors (you can also use patterned paper to give it that little extra).
♥ Pencil.
♥ Scissors.
♥ Glue.
♥ This Template.
♥ Black Fineliner.

DIY

Start with printing out the template (or trace it from your screen if you don’t have a printer). Cut all these parts out.

If you have all your parts cutted out, trace those to the colored paper of choise. Most parts you trace just ones, but for the leaves, just trace them as many times as you want.
For the hood mushrooms and the stem of the pumpkin, leave them on first if you trace them on to the main color, then cut off the hoods of the mushrooms and the stem of the pumpkin. Trace those parts to the desired color seperately.

Glue the stem of the pumpkin and the hoods of the mushrooms on the main colored paper.

With a black fineliner, draw on the details on the pumpkin and the leaves.

Make an arrangement of all the parts you have made, if you are happy with how it looks, glue all parts to it’s definite place.

Handlettering

Last but not least, handletter on the word ‘Fall’ or ‘Autumn’. I won’t explane, like I said, but you can find plenty of tutorials online. Or simply copy hope I wrote mine!

I hope you enjoyed this easy DIY in between everything, I defenitely did!
