Sid the Jersey Devil – Free Pattern

Posted on by drunkenauntwendy Leave a comment

Have you heard about the Jersey Devil? It has wings and feeds on crops and livestock, but has never harmed a human, at least that was what the legends say.

I felt I needed to add a new little one to my cryptid set as Mothman, Cthulhu, Roswell and Betty the Yeti needed a new friend.

The pattern is below. It has not been tested. While he is in the process of testing, the pattern text will remain up here for free. After I get the video shot, I will post the video instructions and the edited updated pattern.

If you make Sid, tag me so I can find it. Happy Crocheting.

Roswell the Alien Crochet Pattern

Posted on by drunkenauntwendy Leave a comment

Sometimes you need to make a sassy alien. The sassiness is created by how you sew the legs on. Feel free to pin them until you get them to the right level of sassiness.

Roswell is obviously named after Roswell, New Mexico. He’s your typical little green man, but you should really go crazy and make him in as many colors as you want.

Axolotl Plush

Crochet Axolotl

I just finished making this super cute Axolotl plush.

I’ve been seeing these little creatures everywhere and I just had to make one. I like this project because it is totally customizable. Change up the colors, give it a different face, add eyelashes, etc. The sky is the limit for making this one your own.

I am teaching myself how-to videos, and this will be the full tutorial when done. I need to reshoot it as my hands managed to drift out of the camera. I will put it up on my Youtube channel when it is done (Right now, it is just a tutorial on how to make a circle) Then I will set it up for sale on Ravelry, Etsy and here (Gotta love those digital downloads). Also there will be kits, yay kits.

I’ve got a ton of sketches ready to go, I will continue to crochet and post them as soon as I get them up.

Cheetara – Free Crochet Pattern

Posted on by drunkenauntwendy Leave a comment
Crochet Cheetara Doll

New Year, Old Pattern.

I’m trying to make typing patterns more of a goal than it has been in the past.

If you follow me on Instagram you know I have been painting and it is taking a lot of time. Plus I was inundated with toy plushies for Christmas orders.

Now, I am working on a fantastic custom order based off of Kevin the Bacon Scarf. Stay tuned for more updates.

Did I mention, I’m also opening a wine bar and patio. Needless to say typing patterns has not been a priority. I’m trying to fix that.

As I have said before, it is hard to find the comic book ladies in crochet form. Everyone goes to your male heroes, but the ladies are underrepresented.

Remember Thundercats? I do, I wanted to be Cheetara when I was younger. (I was young and didn’t understand cartoons vs reality). So I made my very own plush Cheetara. There is needlefelting and quite a bit of hair, but she should be fairly simple once you get those done.

As always if you make her use #drunkenauntwendy so I can find her on Social Media and give you a thumbs up.

Mini Monsters – Carrie

Posted on by drunkenauntwendy 1 Comment
Crocheted Carrie

Last year I did a bunch of mini monsters for Halloween. I didn’t get them all typed. I wanted to add this one to the mix. They’re all gonna laugh at you.

One of my first Steven King books and my absolute best Halloween Costume. (I even won a contest)

Crocheted Carrie
Blood everywhere

As you can see, I may have gotten blood all over my walls and radiator. Its all good because it was just stage makeup mixed with a lot of water. (I was going to use paint, but in the test run it dried really crusty). The makeup stays nice and bright, but it does transfer off if you rub it directly.

The hair can be attached anyway you like. This is a new method, that I like a lot, but it is a touch confusing.

You also can make her with no blood, but where is the fun in that.

Materials

I love this yarn Soft Pink
Vanna’s Choice – Beige
Fuzzy yellow yarn
12 mm safety eyes
Doll Eyelashes
Epoxy 6000
Red Theater Makeup and Water
Size E crochet hook
Large eye blunt needle
Polyfiberfill

Abbreviations

SC – Single Crochet
Ch- Chain
INC – SC 2 stitches into same stitch
DEC – SC two stitches together
BLO – Back loops only

Gauge – Gauge is not important for this project, but if you are making it from the kit, you should use the right size needle to ensure you don’t run out of yarn.

Notes:
Parentheses indicate a repeat. Repeat the stitches in the parentheses for the number of times indicated.
The bracketed number [] is the number of stitches at the end of each row.

I spread my increases out so there isn’t a seam on the finished piece. If you do not like this method, you can do regular increases.

Crochet section is worked in partly in the round. Use a stitch marker or a scrap piece of yarn to mark the beginning of each row. Then you don’t have to count every row. Do not join unless instructed to.

HAIR
In Fuzzy Yellow
Take a piece of yarn and measure the crown of your dolls head. Set this aside, you will use this to make sure you make enough hair.

Using the hair color, wrap the yarn around an item the same width as you want the length of your hair to be. (I used my iphone). These wraps should be as long on the phone as your set aside piece of hair. The more wraps you do, the thicker the hair.

Then using the same yarn, SC along the spine of your item catching 3-4 pieces of yarn at a time. (This secures the hair). Fasten off and leave a long tail for sewing.

Cut the hair at the other end.

Lay chain on head with hair covering face and tack down. Flip hair to the back of the head and start tacking down sections. Leave some free.

PIGS BLOOD
Wet the red makeup to a runny consistency. You want it in between honey and whole milk. Dump on your dolls head. I also used a toothbrush and spattered some on her to spread out the blood.

Crocheted Moose Pattern

I have a full series of these egg shaped animals planned. I have already posted Bandit. My mom was oddly afraid of Moose when I was younger. Of course this means we bought her lots of moose. I thought Melvin would be a nice addition to her collection.
