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…

Crochet Harley Quinn Wig (How-To)

Crochet Rosalina Cosplay
I just realized on March 19th 2017 that the story of my Rosalina cosplay isn’t on my blog. I know. What am I doing with my life? Please note this blog post is written two years after its creation. It’s not new, but my blog is kind of new. So work dated as far back as 2014 may pop up. So in October of 2015, a local comic book store was holding a Halloween costume contest. I decided to enter and make my costume. Conveniently in the same month. Because waiting until the last minute is the best way to execute plans(not). Anyway, I had just gotten obsessed with Rosalina…

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.

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.
