Halloween craftiness

We had another crafty Halloween!

Kira and I went as Unicorns!

I was a more of a My Little Pony Unicorn and Kira was Lady Rainicorn from Adventure Time

For Kira's Costume I sewed the dress on my own.

Now I'm really excited about this because I made her dress WITHOUT a pattern!!!

Now there were some small messups along the way - like not making the neck big enough for her to put her head through!! But we were able to make some adjustments and it was perfect!

I also crocheted her unicorn horn and attached it to a crocheted headband.

back view -- arm warmers were knee high socks we just cut to make them work

Now I found a fun pattern for a unicorn hat that I wanted to use for my costume.

But, it didn't work out so great...

Even Kira agreed it was a pattern fail!!!!

But I was able to use some of the information from the pattern and come up with this awesome unicorn hat.

I really liked being able to tell people that I made it all on my own!!

Homemade Halloween costumes are for sure the best!!

Did you make your costume this year?

Another Unicorn!

I made another amigurumi from my book - the shy little unicorn!

I used my new yarn too and was so excited to use all the bright colors!!

She turned out so cute! 

Both my kids like to play with her.

Kira gave her a crown and made her queen of all ponies!

I love her pretty hair!!!!

Unicorn Request

One thing I really love doing is making things for my family and friends!

On Easter my cousin was showing our Granny a Crocheted Unicorn that she thought was cute.

Granny told my Mother-in-law and then the word got to me.

I knew I needed to make her a Unicorn!!

I really wanted to try to make one without a pattern and see if I could make it work.

I used different pictures on the internet to help me get some inspiration and to give me some idea on how to structure the project.

It was a lot easier than I thought it was going to be and I had a lot of fun trying to make her!!!

Here she is with her horn and purple hair!

And all done!!

My cousin loved her! YEAH!!!
