Clearly my attempt at making a eye catching title could use work. Anywho… This was a commission by a colleague for her daughter. The hair was my favorite part so far. I used crochet hair that is meant for crochet hairstyles. It’s a pretty useful technique and super easy, especially a 4C texture. It can be worked right into the stitches. The glasses are just reading glasses from any old store. I bought them at my local Michael’s Craft supply shop. Of course, as usual she’s completed free handed. You can see the beginning stages of how all my dolls come to be. I typically start with white yarn so…

A new(ish) Etsy Shop trying out Promoted Listings. What I learned.
So you’re curious about that Promoted Listings thing, aye? What does it do? Is it worth it? Is it really expensive? Do I need to be at “XYZ” level to begin? I can’t answer any of those as I’m a newb. What I can say is that having good listings(good photos, utilizing/understanding Etsy SEO, etc) is helpful and I’d argue necessary before using Promoted Listings. I’ll put it like this, using Promoted Listings without the good listings is like paying for ad space in the mall for your bakery when you add too much sugar to your cookies. Sure, it’ll work somewhat, but it’d work better if you didn’t try…

Shop Promo: Crochet Doll Xpressions|Photo Gallery chibi Aoko
Her name is Aoko. She’s not from any specific show or anything. She was inspired by eating hot cheetos. Not really. Just something spicy. She’s available for sale here on my website as well as on Etsy. Though be advised that on Etsy she has a shipping cost of $13 added into the listing price. If you buy directly here you can get calculated shipping or even actual free shipping(where I the maker pays the shipping, not you the buyer) if you join my mailing list and add the coupon code at checkout.

Toshiro Hitsugaya Amigurumi Plush
Aaaw he is going to chop you up with his sword. He is very threatening. He is very dangerous. –Because he’s so gosh darn cute. He thinks he’s gonna cut someone. In reality, he can’t harm a fly. You know, being made of yarn and having a plastic play sword isn’t effective for battle. But he CAN steal hearts. Mwuhahahahaha!!!! Originally made in December 2016. See him and others in my Flickr album~

Promo: Crochet Dolls in Onesies
, I thought making onesies for my plushies would be a cute new addition. My first one is on the black doll. Hers a bit more fitted than I wanted. The pink hair got mostly what I was looking to create. An oversized onesie. Though in her case it’s very oversized to where her limbs are buried. Welp, it happens. They’re both available for sale on my shop. Check out the shop tab to find them. Send me a message to buy both girls together and I’ll bundle them at a discount.

That time I made a crochet Ball Jointed Doll
I saw this on Pinterest. Pretty neat idea if you ask me~ Embedding from Pinterest is not working. >:U So because I’m a visual person and can’t speak or read Russian I made up how the joints work. My method on her is a bit on the loose side but it still works. Her outfit is off-brand ball jointed doll clothes(scale 1/3) from eBay(no affiliation, just a reference.) She’ll available for purchase here for $45 + free S&H in the domestic United States.
