Sidetracked..

 After crocheting the avatar characters, I got another pattern..

Gabby and the kitty cake. I crocheted the kitty 3 times, for each one of the girls, the Gabby doll once. It was too much of a hassle to make 3. Happy it is done!

DH, meanwhile, was/is busy getting  bikes for the 2 eldest. He bought the bikes secondhand and is fixing them up. I do the styling….Bike one ( of 2) is ready.

Since I had the needles and cotton at hand, I made them keychains ( free pattern here https://www.mariskavos.nl/free-cat-amigurumi-pattern/)

After all that was finished I sat drumming my fingers in a “ now what” mood. I had no quiltproject immediately at hand, only a sewingmachine project.

So…..

Crochet project

 At a request of my DD I tackeled an Avatar crochet project. Not the blue creatures from that movie, but air, fire, water and earth benders. My grand ladies watch cartoons I have never heard of and this was one of them.

I watched it while crocheting ( and found it extremely boring LOL) so now I know what the girls are talking about. The middle one has a birthday coming up and she really lóves the cartoon so I decided to make these characters for her as a bd gift.

I made the water bender and her brother

Fire benders

Friends…

And the Avatar himself

The patterns were fiddly and had a number of typos. Not for an absolute beginner, but the designer has loads of very recognisable characters.

Perhaps I will crochet myself a small Freddy Mercury….
