Crochet Apple Pie

After completing a box of crochet food for a charity donation during the Crochet Olympics Games, I received a last minute request to put some crocheted food in my Christmas box. I have already made some of the patterns that were in the Christmas donation for this child and I did not have the patience to repeat the ones that were not. So, having some birthday money left that I had stashed away to purchase a couple of patterns I had my eye on, I decided it was time to splurge. I purchased two food patterns I had wanted the Apple Cherry Berry Pie and the Grilled Steak Dinner.

I have seen patterns for a finished pie, but I liked the idea that the child could "make" the pie as part of the pretend cooking play.

I plan to make this pie to put in my donation box next year and make the pumpkin one for my Thanksgiving box next year. I hope to make the steak dinner for birthday and Easter presents.

Light Bulb Ornament

I love ornaments. They are quick and fun to make. As a gift item, they advantage of coming out each year and helping to bring back memories. Since they are stored most of the year, it eliminates the issue of where to display the gift, too.

I happen to love the old-fashioned big bulbed lights that you do not see much anymore. Several crochet patterns out there bring back that look. This is a free ornament pattern found here. It is a great project to use up scrap yarn and to make some fun Christmas decorations.

Humpty Dumpty

I got behind on my blogging again as I worked to send off my Christmas boxes. However, the boxes have been mailed and I can now get caught up on posting my projects.

Humpty was one of my favorite Christmas projects. Like the Old Woman in the Shoe this pattern came from a vintage Annie's Attic publication Toy Chest, 87T61. This year's presents seem to have found a nursery rhyme and fairy tale theme.

Humpty is not completely an amigurumi. His body is made in more traditional flat panels associated with sewn stuffed animals. However, his arms and legs do follow the amigurumi style. I actually ended up breaking out my yarn bobbins in order to work on Humpty's shirt. Without them, the yarn got tangled. I think it is the first time I have required yarn bobbins for a toy project.

There are still a few more projects in this leaflet that I would like to make for spring birthdays or Easter baskets. However, those will have to wait until after the Christmas season.
