Crochet hair clip - My little Pony, if You know a bit about Pony's ( and I have to tell You I don't) You will get that he is inspired by Rainbow Dash. I chose him because of the vivid rainbow colors which looks great together. I think the hair clip will look great on every hair color and the pony itself is so cute and lovely. I hope You will follow the pattern below and make one pony for yourself and another ones for Your daughters or nieces or mothers or anyone else You can think of.
I made this little Pony hair clip for my friend. She took him to work the next day and he vanished. I just hope he ran away to make world a better place, not to do evil :)
I am curious what will happen to Your pony's, that I hope You will make with my pattern (below), if any of them will have some other interesting stories please write me an email and as always, even if Your pony will not suddenly revive and run away to the world, I would love to see the photos of Your creations. I am collecting all of the photos You send and I hope to make a wonderful gallery someday.
My Little Pony is another item from my collection of hair clips, previous posts about hair accesories:
Recently I feel like a little mad hatter myself, well maybe not hatter but a crazy hair clip maker. When I bought a set of eight hairclips in store I fought I would use two maybe three, but it's so freaking hard to stop yourself once You start making them. I have so many ideas for hairclips and I am so excited to make something girly again :) well as girly as I possibly could, Mad Hatter is girly, right?!
Anyway do I even have to write I love Alice in Wonderland? Is there someone here who don't?.... Yes I fought I would here an awkward silence :)
Please enjoy the pattern and as always send photos here if You would like to share the results.
Materials:
dark grey, white, ginger, putrid green yarn ( I use the yarn which gauge is 24.0 to 30.0 sts = 4 inches )
I made the black version of a hairclip from my previous post for a custom order. I hope Marta will be very happy about it and will wear it everyday to work :P
I have to say I am extremly pleased with how he looks like ( a bit demonic) and I am so tempted to make one cat for each color of yarn I have, but who have the time :(. So if anyone of You will make one of those cats from my pattern please send the photos to: krawka.blog@gmail.com. Maybe we will make a kind of "hair cat" gallery :)
Is there a cat on Your head? There isn't?! Oh no... I feel so sorry for You :) I have a good news for You, You can change it right know with my free crochet pattern.
I am in love with the idea of crochet hair clips and accessories so the cat is definitely the first of the series, one I have ready already is a pony so this will probably be my next post.
But back to the kitten - he is cute and little and white, perfect for every little and not so little girl (or a boy). If I didn't sale You the idea yet I can tell You he looks great on every hair color - I checked, and both on loose hair and as a decoration of a pony tale - as You can see on the photos. Another adventure is that he is ease to make even for a beginner and not that time consuming for the impatient ones.
All You need to make him is a white and black yarn plus a hair clip - You can buy one or use some old and unused ones.
Materials:
white, black yarn ( I use the yarn which gauge is 24.0 to 30.0 sts = 4 inches )
hook 3 mm
cotton wool or other filament.
hairclip ( Mine is the black basic clip almost 5 cm)
I looooove Disney movies - all of them, probably every single one and now that my son is old enough (1,5y) I have an excuse to watch them from the beginning once more :) YAY!!! I'm trying to avoid to much television so we are not watching every day but I can definitely say that the favorite one for now is "Where is NEMO?" but from what I have heard it's not uncommon.
Anyway it's always so nice to watch something new I especially love the ones with a new concept. Since I have watched the trailer of the new movie BIG HERO 6 I knew immediately I would like the movie very much, but the most importantly that I'm in love with Baymax.
The world premiere of the movie was 7.11.2014, but as always, in Poland the movie will be released 28.11.2014 because of the Polish dubbing they need to record. ( For those who doesn't know we have amazing dubbing for animated movies, sometimes even better than the actual text. SERIOUSLY ).
If You don'tknow the movie yet, watch the trailer:
So I didn't see the whole movie yet but I already made the little Baymax for my desk and I would like to share the pattern with You. As always I hope You will make more cute Baymax's and I would love to see the photos when You finish. You can always send photos to me by email kamilakusztal@gmail.com or share it via google+ or post it on ravelry or do all of the above.
Designing the character:
Back to crochet pattern. First step for me is always designing the character on paper. Below You can see the first project. I always try to make my characters the size I designed on paper, but they are always a bit bigger. Also below You can see the drawing that inspired me. I loved the little red heart on otherwise one colored character. I also wanted to incorporate the lines to my crochet character, so I decided to sew them with thick, grey embroidery floss.
Materials:
When You have the concept of the character ready You have to collect the materials. Below is the list of items I used
white yarn ( I use the yarn which gauge is 24.0 to 30.0 sts = 4 inches )
hook 4 mm
black and red sheet of foam (mine is 1 mm thick) for eyes and red heart. If You don't have foam do't worry You can easly use little scrap of material or even embroider with thread. It's really up to You
Sheep I made some time ago for my Mom ( She collects sheep of any sorts and kinds). They are wonderful to decorate your table for Easter or basically any other occasion You serve eggs. They look really wonderful, a bit silly maybe but mostly very very cute.
When I was making pictures for this pattern I had this fantasy about making the whole flock of white sheep with only one black in the middle. What a wonderful table decoration that woud be. Anyway I recommend You to make at least two from the pattern below.
Special thanks to +Lương Bìnhwho motivated me to write this pattern :)
Materials:
white, black, brown, beige yarn ( I use the yarn which gauge is 24.0 to 30.0 sts = 4 inches/10 cm )
Halloween Coasters - Frankenstein's monster.
He is actually very, very simple and very cute. He looks great with vampire, ghost basically he just looks great! I highly recommend to make Your own Frankie-Coaster with the pattern below.
Materials:
white, black, green, grey yarn ( I use the yarn which gauge is 24.0 to 30.0 sts = 4 inches )
For my next project I decided to make another panda ( Yes, I love pandas, zombie pandas, kung-fu pandas and so on....). This one is from KUNG FU PANDA 2 It appears on screen only for a few seconds but It was long enough to steal my heart. Below the screen I'm writing about.
I think It would be the exact same size as my drawing ( half of A4 paper) so It will fit in both hands. I think the most challenging will be to make it a bit aged, that is why I don't want to use white and black yarn but some shades of grey.
Wish my luck, if anyone have any suggestions please hurry up and comment :) and like always I will write exerything down to make pattern in the next post.

Wzór na pomarańczową rybkę (Pattern for orange fish):
Od kiedy urodził się mój synek nosiłam się z zamiarem kupienia kukiełki, ale we wszystkich sklepowych coś mi nie odpowiadało (nie ukrywam, że często cena...). Postanowiłam więc postawić na własnoręczną kukiełkę i był to strzał w 10-tkę. Już za pierwszym razem gdy pokazałam Aleksowi (synkowi wtedy miał rok i 3 miesiące) zaczął wytykać język i otwierać paszczę tak jak dinozaur, co przyniosło dużo uciechy całej rodzinie. Od tamtej pory dino zdążył pojechać z nami na wakacje i nawet wybrał się na wycieczkę do dino-parku w Łebie... Mam nadzieje, że poniższy wzór przyda się jeszcze komuś i przyniesie światu więcej wytykających języki dzieci.... :)
( Since my son was born I intended to buy him a hand puppet, but in all puppets in shops something did not suit me (I admit that often the price ...). So I decided to make my own puppet and it was a great desicion. Already for the first time when I showed Dino to Alex (son then had a year and three months than) he began to point out the tongue and open jaws just like a dinosaur, which brought a lot of fun for the whole family. Since then dino was on vacation with us and even went on a trip to the dino-park in Leba ... I hope that someone will make another puppet from the pattern below, and the world will gain one more tongue-out-sticking baby.... :)
