I recently found out that one of my friend is a fan of monkeys! She collects various sizes of monkey dolls and asked me if I can crochet a little monkey for her. And of course I said YES! I love when people ask me to bake or crochet something for them, it helps me to challenge myself and learn, and at the same time make them happy!
Frankly, I am used to reading charts, like what I did for my previous amigurumis. I think it's easier to see rather than reading row-by-row written instruction. But well, sometimes you just have to learn when there's no other choice, right? It happened to me when I saw Bethsco Blog's adorable monkey. Bethany's pattern is quite easy to follow and the outcome is superb! Oh, I am so glad that I tried it out. Thank you so much, Bethany! ♥

Andddd, YES! My friend loves it so much! ♥
Happy crocheting, everyone!

Dachshunds (weight up to 11 pounds, height 5 - 7 inches) may look cute and cuddly, but they are tirelessly energetic, clever and curious—some might even say “intense.” Always up for a walk or a game in the park, they can easily get bored when left to their own devices for too long. Sometimes, that can involve chewing things. It's an ideal breed for singles, city dwellers, and families with older children. Trademark traits : tenacious and high-spirited, bold and clever, lovable, loyal. (dogster.com)
Oh, how I love his cute short legs! ♥

Hello! :D
The Miniature Schnauzer ( height:30-36cm, weight: 5-7kg ) is a breed of small dog of the Schnauzer type that originated in Germany in the mid-to-late 19th century. It is an intelligent, loving, happy dog. They are energetic, playful and get along well with children and like to be with their people. Affectionate, keen, devoted and docile. (dogbreedinfo.com)
So, now I decided to some changes for the eyes and nose.
Yes, no grayish color anymore! :D *yay* I used cotton thread and I have to say, it needs more energy to do because it's so thin. It's quite better, though.

Hello! :D
So today I finished this and simply love it! Well, except the red mushroom she's holding and the grayish big nose and eyes I made. Don't know why I always end up making a big big eyes like that...
For your information, this red mushroom is an Amanita Muscaria species and commonly known as fly agaric or fly amanita. :D

Hello, bunnies! ♥
Yesterday I finished another little friend, Little Bunny and his yellow carrot. Yes, I chose yellow, not because I have a particular reason, but because I don't have any orange color yarn. I wonder if there's another alternative color for carrot and I found this!

I know, it's so pretty. ♥
I always have difficulties in giving my little friend eyes or nose, or when attaching their body parts,it's so troublesome, so please excuse the messy parts of him. But as always, I enjoy it so much. Just think it's like a magic when you turn a ball of yarn to be something cute like this. :D

Hello, this is my cute little crocheted friend, Poodle. ♥
She has been lying around my desk unattached for weeks now. And now you ask me, why don't I just do it right now? Frankly, I have to say that crocheting consecutively for several days that I did weeks ago makes me kind of bored with it. Of course, it's hard to get rid of this thought, 'Hey Poodle, why don't you just attach you body parts yourself and go play with the other dogs?!'.
But somehow I just can't resist of her cuteness. So I decided to give her a better future, by attaching her body parts. And here it is. :D

As always, I get the pattern from Ami Ami Dogs 2 book. FYI, you can actually download the ZIP version of the book somewhere out there if you search carefully. There are plenty of it, but please just buy it if it's available in your country. =)

I know it's too early to say this :
MERRY CHRISTMAS, GUYS~! ♥
But really I have to say it now because I won't be home for christmas, I'm going to Singapore for Super Star Virgo Cruise! I'll be going with my family tomorrow and so excited about it. As this is my first cruise trip, I hope it will be great ♥
And for those of you out there wondering why I'm rarely online these days, this is what I've been doing : crocheting~ ♥
...7 snowflakes for decoration. I followed the tutorial by Teresa. She is really great and I love all her videos. She explains very clearly and so easy to follow especially for a beginner like me. Click here to visit her blog~
...a beanie hat for my little cousin, and my bad, it IS too small. But well, I've decided to crochet another one for him next time. xD
...a Jack Russell Terrier! Oh, I love this one so much.♥ I found the pattern from Ami Ami Dogs Magazine and it's my first time reading a pattern~ I mean, yea, it's a pretty easy pattern but I'm so happy! Well, I can't wait to crochet other dogs!That's it!
Before I finish this post, I just wanna say have a merry merry christmas for you who celebrate it~ ;) ♥
Oh btw, do you know that now you can change your wall in facebook to a timeline?? I think it's pretty cool and this is a cover of mine~ xD
Alright then! Buh-bye, guys~♥

Guys, Christmas Day is coming~! Can you believe it?? Seriously, I feel that it's just yesterday we decorate our christmas tree and next month we'll do it again! I am SOO EXCITED! ♥
There's something different for my Christmas Day this year, I crochet as christmas gift~ Actually we do not really celebrate christmas in my hometown, just go to church and that's all *or maybe simply listen to christmas songs..*. That's why I am so curious how does it feel giving people our own handmade gift *in this case,crochet*, 'Will they like it?' or 'Will they spot the wrong stitch that I accidentally did?'. I can't wait to give it!
Before I started doing the bag, I buy these yarns and knitting needles *i cant knit, but it's just too shiny and kept looking at me.. =P* from Jet Sun Trading, Sg. Wang. The aunty there is so friendly~! We can also get a free teaching there if we buy from them, pretty nice, isn't it? I have to try to learn with the aunty next time!
let's start~
after a whole day...
