Jake and the Never land Pirates is one of my favorite shows that my son is watching, it's cute and funny and the most important of all it's a bit educational. I love Disney's productions and like so many times before I don't really care for humans I always love the animal characters best. So I knew right away I will make Skully for my son, I didn't gave it to him right away he had to find it using the pirate map my husband made. Let me tell You - he was delighted :)

 

Crochet Skully when finished is 18 cm (7 inches) to the end of head. It's perfect to put on Your shoulder and shout "Yo ho ho" :)

 

Crochet buttons

 

Collection of crochet buttons. Owls, bear, zombie rabbit, pirate rabbit, my neighbor totoro, hedgehog, basically anything that came to my head before I ran out of buttons. It all started when I bought a pack of DIY buttons, they look like this:

I think the fought is to put any material You want on the front side, squeeze with the back side and voila You have Your DIY button ready.  I am not too good at following instructions so I though I would make the crochet buttons instead.... 

My favourite ones are brown bear and brown owl, weird cause I don't like the color :P I use the brown bear not as a button but as a brooch.

 

  

I also love the three little bunnies: pirate, zombie and skeleton

Pirate booties - new photos

Today I rolled my house upside down in search of pirate booties. As You may guested I found them in most obvious place that I probably looked like 5 times before :) Anyway I was looking for them to make some more pictures and couldn't stop myself to share one of them with You. I love how they look on these cute chubby Leon's feet. 

Leon is now 7 months old so I need to make a correction the booties fit the babies 0 to probably 8 months. He was extremely interested in them as soon as I put them on his feet and let me tell You it was hard to make the photo and even harder to make a focused one, but we did it. We are so tired now that my son is asleep and I am writing this post :)

Let me remind anyone who is interested in the free pattern for those pirate booties can find them here:
