Lil' Kowalski (Penguins of Madagascar)
I’ve always wanted to crochet a little Kowalski for myself, but i didn’t have the time to do so. I started crocheting this little friend last year and only managed to complete it recently. This guy has a special meaning to me because… I used to be “HIM”.
Tadaa! This is a picture of me 2 years ago as Kowalski in Universal Studios Singapore (USS). If you’ve...

Lil' Twinkle
Say hi to the latest member of “littleyarnfriends”. Her name is Lil’ Twinkle. Does she look familiar? She is Twinkle’s Mini Me.
I followed the body parts of this chihuahua pattern that i found on-line and made changes to the ears and tail so it resembles more like my dog. This pattern can be used to make many other breeds. Just change the color of yarn or the eyes and...

Mickey Hoodie for My Little Dog
Remember the very 1st two sweaters that i crocheted for my dog? This time, I want to make a Mickey Hoodie that is of better material and with sleeves. Why Mickey? Because I love Mickey Mouse ever since i was a little kid! My friends called me Mousey. Haha. Anyway, I always wonder how they crochet the sleeves onto the sweater.
This website by Jenna Wingate helped me a lot in this project.

M&Ms Mini Pillows
Who love M&Ms? I do! Especially the Peanut Butter Flavored ones.
I did this M&Ms Mini Pillows during Christmas last year. Yes! Christmas is the season of love, giving and CHOCOLATES! That’s where i got my idea from.
This is MY FIRST crochet project that i did on my own without any help from online/book patterns. Though it’s just 2 circles, at least it’s a good...

He is one of my popular “littleyarnfriends” together with Lil’ Clumsy Smurf (previous post). Many of my friends adore him and Lil’ Clumsy. Yes, they are simply irresistible.
When i saw this pattern on-line, i couldn’t...

Lil' Clumsy Smurf
One day, i was watching The Smurfs with my family. And i thought how nice it would be if i had a blue little Smurf helping out around the house. I felt the sudden urge to bring the Smurfs from the movies to live!
Thank God i still had remaining blue and white yarn at home so i do not have to wait any longer to make this little fellow. My personal favourite is Clumsy, that’s why i chose to...

Lil' Vash the Dachshund
Gretchen always tells me how she misses her dog back in the Philippines. She only get to see her dog once or twice a year because of her work in Singapore. So this “littleyarnfriend” was born to keep her company till she sees her real Vash again.
Here’s a photo of Vash and the Amigurumi version of her. Don’t they look a-like?
Thanks to Lisalovesyarn for providing this...

Lil' Buzzy JiBee
After crocheting my 1st “littleyarnfriend” Tubby (refer to previous post), I can’t wait to start on my next project. I looked into my bag of yarn and found some left-over yellow and black yarn. Immediately, i knew what i wanted to crochet next.
This is Buzzy JiBee, my 2nd “littleyarnfriend”. Ain’t he lovable? He is named after Jimmy Bee.
I followed the body...

Lil' Tubby the Fat Penguin
Catherine (anywool.tumblr.com), one of my good friend showed me a picture of a Crochet Penguin that she hope to make. The moment i saw it, i fell in love with it. I knew i had to make this penguin. I never knew yarn can turned into such cute stuff toys. I started researching more on Crochet Animals and was blown away by all the cuteness i saw. They look so adorable! Soon, i found out the name of...

Twinkle's Crochet Snow Cap
This Mini Snow Cap was done not long after i finished my 1st Project. I found out that not only we can crochet in Rows but also in Rounds. This snow cap is crocheted in Rounds whereas my 1st project (refer to my first post) is crocheted in Rows. I got to learn different style of stitches too. How interesting!
I did this with the help of Teresa’s YouTube tutorial on Baby Crochet Cap with...

My 1st Project: Stripe Sweaters for My Dog!
I discovered this lovely art called “Crochet” from one of my friend last September 2011. She was crocheting a scarf for her Mom and I thought it was really cute. It looked tedious and complicated but I always love crafting and was eager to learn it. I went on asking her where she got her materials.
That very day after work, I headed down to Daiso (the famous Japanese $2 shop) to get my yarn and...
