Unicorns
Have been busy making unicorns for orders and decided to try making a mini unicorn with lace yarn! It is challenging to make due to the small size and my fingers hurt from all the sewing but I am very satisfied with the results :) The mini unicorn is only about 2 inches tall including the horn and look so cute!

My friend had requested me to make The Geeky Hooker's version of Princess Leia and Captain America he saw on http://www.boredpanda.com/crochet-pop-characters-monsters-geeky-hooker/
and I finally finished making them.
I have a request for the patterns and have gotten permission from the original designer to share them so I will be tidying up the patterns and sharing them soon! :)

Mini Dog Amigurumi
Inspired by a fellow amigurumist and decided to try making a mini amigurumi using lace yarn.
The dog is only about 3cm/ 1 inch tall! This is the smallest amigurumi I have made to date :D
Check out the instagram of the amigurumist who inspired me! His amigurumis are way smaller than this and always amaze me.
