MORE FREE AMIGURUMI PATTERNS TO LOVE!

It seems I am as addicted to reading all about amigurumi and searching for free patterns as I am to actually crocheting the delightful little critters! In my quest to find the absolute cutest free patterns, you know...the ones that make you say "omg, I have to make that!!" I spend hours upon hours combing websites and blogs looking for them. I ran across a few adorable ones that I have put on my "Amigurumi to Crochet" list which will take me until I'm at least 80 years old to finish. Today I ran across these "Funky Pigs" at the Premier Yarns website. Get the free pattern here.

The Funky Pigs – Flora, Dottie and Lionel
Designs by Michele Wilcox

I think they are just too cute and huggable, and I love the way they all have different, yet matching outfits. And speaking of toooo cute, look at this little amigurumi lamb:

This little guy is a definate future project for me. I found the pattern for him here:
Something about those little eyes! I was able to find some of these glass eyes at my local Hobby Lobby. I think they are beautiful and I can't wait to use them in a project.
If you're unable to find them at your local craft store, you can also order them here: http://www.suncatchereyes.net/
And while you're there check out their section of free patterns! They have some very cute ones. Take a look at a few of them:




Very nice!

Well, time for me to grab hook & yarn and get my daily dose of crochet fun!
As always, thanks for visiting. And until next time....happy hooking!

    I knitted a pig very similar to the one in the picture but that was a very, very long time ago!! I wish I have the time to do this now ever since I found your very lovely blog.

    When you get a chance come join me in the fight against hunger. General Mills will donate a box of Cheerios to a food bank for simply commenting on my “I’m Blogging It Forward To Fight Hunger” post! How cool is that?!
