Crochet Flower Skirt Tutorial and Pattern

Crochet Flower Petal Skirt Pattern is now available in my Ravelry store! Made to fit my Realistic Body Crochet Doll, but easy to customize to any size. Buy it now!

You can find the free video tutorial at the bottom of the page.

 You’ll need at least 3 main colors: the main flower color, the trim, and the leaves. You could get away with using the same color for the trim and the petals, but it’ll be tougher to distinguish between each petal if you do. So if you want it all in one color, try using a slightly darker shade for the trim.
 Another thing to note is the weight of the yarn you’re using. You could use pretty much any yarn, but a thinner yarn will produce a lighter petal that won’t add much bulk to the doll; and a thicker yarn will produce a heavier, bulky petal. Choose your yarn based on the look you want for the skirt. 

For my project, I used “Orchid” for my main petal color, “Violet” for the trim, and “Spring Green” for the leaves, all from Red Heart Super Saver. I used a heavier yarn, for a big, bulky ball gown type skirt. But if you want a more loose, flowing skirt, use a lighter yarn.

The same goes for hook size. A larger hook will make a lighter, lacier petal and a smaller hook will make a heavier petal. I used a size E hook.

Spotted Yoshi Easter Egg Pattern and Free Video Tutorial

Spotted crochet Easter eggs inspired by Yoshi eggs. Find the pattern in my Ravelry store!
Buy it now! Find the free video tutorial at the bottom of the page.
I made my eggs using Jumbo Easter eggs, to fit my Baby Yoshi amigurumi doll pattern. But this egg is easy to customize to a larger or smaller size. I used color changes to make the spots on the egg. 

I used Red Heart Super Saver for all my eggs. The colors I used were white, for the background color of all the eggs, and for the foreground colors I used: spring green, red, bubblegum pink, and royal blue, but you can use any color you want.

After making both halves of the egg I sewed both halves together on one side (the plastic egg halves were already broken when I got them -__- but it still worked! I just stitched both halves together with 2 stitches at the back, and hot glued them to both halves of a jumbo plastic Easter egg.

Crochet Wolf Costume Ears Pattern

Realistic looking wolf costume ears made with crochet. Making this pattern in super bulky weight rather than regular bulky weight results in a sturdier, and more fluff-able, pair of ears.

To get the realistic furry look, I just lightly brushed my yarn after finishing my pieces using a hair brush. But if you prefer the fuzzy look of Homespun un-brushed, you don’t have to brush your yarn, you can just leave it as-is.

I couldn’t find a Homespun Thick & Quick in a shade I liked for the black part, but if you prefer you can use a different type of bulky weight yarn than homespun, such as Wool Ease Thick & Quick. It will work the same, it just won’t have that fuzzy look un-brushed. You could just brush the yarn, however. 

Or you could just use 2 strands of regular bulky Homespun at the same time for the bulky grey/brown, and black parts if you want that homespun look (which is what I did).

Pattern has photos, and there is a video tutorial. 

I’ve made several sizes using different sized hooks, and yarns. The smallest size (which came to about 20 inches around,) was made using a “B” hook and worsted weight yarn. 
The 2 middle size (which came to about 21 and 22 inches) were made using a “B” and “D” hook and Aran weight yarn. 
The largest size (which came to about 23 inches) was made using an “E” hook and Aran weight yarn. 
I used 2 different colors of Aran or worsted weight yarns (black and white). I only used about half a skein of white yarn, and used some scraps of black yarn, because it didn’t require much black. I used between 100 and 160 yards of wht (depending on the size) and between 20 and 40 yards of black.The Aran brand I used was Red Heart brand, and the worsted weight I used was Caron Simply Soft, because I had it on hand, but if you prefer a different brand you could use any. 
The last part of the pattern is a bit complex but there is a video tutorial you can watch to help with some of the more tricky bits. Find that tutorial here:
