FREE AMIGURUMI PATTERN - GurumiOSnowman

Free Amigurumi Pattern GurumiOSnowman for the chilly weather,
click on each of the two images, click again to enlarge pattern page,
happy crafting:

Fuzzy Kitty

My first Fuzzy Kitty, tried position the front legs either in the front or on the sides.













For some reason, Fuzzy Kitty reminded me of Kimba, a '50 Japanese lion cartoon similar to Disney's Lion King.
May be I will make a white fuzzy kitty for my next project.



I hand sewn a crochet flower onto a piece of lace as a collar for the kitty,
it turn out great. Sweet Fuzzy Kitty is about 6 inches (15.2cm) tall and 4 inches (10.2cm) wide.

Background Props

I love colors, especially color background props, here is a simple spool/fabric cabinet made, all materials are from my local craft store:
one wooden miniature kitchen cabinet
acrylic paints
a bag of miniature wooden spools
lots of embroider thread
fat quarter fabrics / left over fabrics
cardboard
I painted the cabinet, winded embroider thread onto the spools, and cut fat quarter fabrics into thirds and folded them around pre-cut cardboards tightly to fit into the cabinet.

AngelLion


In 2009, I was contacted by a customer to work on a small lion pendant for her daughter. Her young daughter had been ill and was going through treatment, in all this time, her daughter had a plush "guardian lion" that she carried around since child; but during a vacation trip, the "guardian lion" disappeared, her daughter was in disarray. She sent me photos, we messaged back and forth, and we ended up custom made the lion pendant with wings to show her daughter that her "guardian lion" had gone to help other boys and girls whom needed courage to go through what she was going through.

Since I was moved by her story, I asked for permission to make a pattern out of the winged lion and name it "Dalenna - Angel of Courage". Dalenna is part of the young girl's name, lion for its courage and wings are for angel/guardianship.

Hence, Dalenna - Angel of Courage, AngelLion amigurumi pattern came to be......It is a story of a little girl and her guardian lion name Dalenna. One day Dalenna said to her master: "I must go now to help other little girls and boys. You must be brave to go forward and not be sad for what you have lost, for I am always in your heart......"

Come to think of it, don't we all need a little bit of courage once in a while??
