Princess Lovey

Princess Lovey is a lovely little princess, she sings babies to sleep, keeps them safe and give them a feeling of security. She is soft and her big dress is nice to play with and hold, and she is also very chewy. Her big shirt is starry shaped as well and has alot of little holes to peak through and to explore for tiny fingers.

The Idea for this princess lovey isn´t all mine, I had been surfin the web for ideas and found a similiar one. I used the baby star blanket I crocheted last year for the skirt and head and hands where simple oval and tube amigurumi forms. I stiched on the eyes and mouth to keep her all soft and have no danger of swallowing button or pearl eyes. She is wahsable, huggable and don´t you think also lovable? 

Did you also have a doll like this? A security blanket lovey dolly?

Schnuffeltücher sind sehr beliebt bei Kleinkindern, und ein schönes Geschenk für neue Erdbewohnern. Die geben Sicherheit und sind besonders Kuschelig wenn die kleinen Nachts aufwachen und werden auch gerne wenn die kleinen größer werden überall mitgeschleppt. 

Inspiration für die kleine Prinzessin habe ich im Internet gefunden, den Sternenrock von meiner Sternendecke, die ich letztes Jahr gemacht habe. Die Augen und Mund sind gestickt, so ist die Kuschelweich. Die ist nicht nur waschbar, sondern auch kuschelbar, liebhabbar und wunderbar. Oder? 

Hattet ihr auch so eine Puppe in der Kindheit, die vielleicht keine Kusheldecke war in dem Sinne aber die gleiche Funktion hatte? 

Diesmal wieder bei Creadienstag dabei

Lítil prinsessa til að knúsa. Það má drusla henni með sér út um allt, knúsa hana, halda í hendurnar á henni eða pilsið, stinga puttunum inn í götin, naga hana og svo ef hún verður eitthvað drullug getur mamma þvegið hana. Augun og munnurinn eru saumuð á, þannig hún er öll mjúk og knúsuleg. Ég fékk hugmyndina af netinu, var búin að skoða svo margar svona knúsudúkkur og ákvað að gera litla prinsessu fyrir nýja jarðarprinsessu. Hún er svo jólaleg í rauðu og hvítu, finnst ykkur ekki? Eins og hún sé á leiðinni á jólaball. Pilsið hennar er stjörnulaga, en ég notaði byrjunina á stjörnuteppinu sem ég gerði í fyrra.

Áttuð þið líka svona knúsudúkku þegar þið voruð lítil? Hvað hét hún? Mín hét Gígí.

Monkey Business

Mirror, mirror on the wall, who is the cutes monkey in town?

I have always loved monkeys, as a child I wanted to have one as a pet. Me and my best friend used to play games as kids pretending to be monkeys and those are also one of his favorite animals. So as I found out he was going to become a daddy I knew what kind of animal I had to crochet for his baby girl. Of course a monkey and who is cuter than this one from Pepika.

I bought the pattern from amigurumipatterns and started straight away.

Ég hef alltaf elskað apa, man eftir öpunum í Blómavali í gamla daga, var alltaf í apaleik og vildi helst vera api eða amk eiga apa sem gæludýr. Ég og æskuvinur minn vorum alltaf í apaleik og hann elskar apa líka alveg eins og ég. Þegar hann varð pabbi á árinu, var ekkert annað dýr sem kom til greina að hekla fyrir litlu stelpuna hans en apakríli. Þessi api er algjört apakríli. Hann er eitthvað svo aumkunarlaus líka að það er ekkert annað sem kemur til greina en að knúsa hann og elska, og ég er viss um að hann eigi eftir að verða eitt af uppáhalds knúsudýrum nýja eigandans síns.

Isn´t he just adorable? The way he looks, you just want to hug him and squeeze him tight and love him forever.

Look at that cute long tail. Just adorable...

Er ekki langa skottið hans algjört krútt?

He got a little hungry at the end of the photo shoot and ofcourse I had plenty of bananas in the house. It is also helps to see the size of this little cute monkey.

I think I will have to make one for me as well to keep, hug and squeeze.

What is your favorite animal?

Auðvitað varð apagreyið orðið ofsa svangt eftir allar myndatökurnar, en ég á alltaf nóg af banönum ef ske kynni að ég fengi apa í heimsókn ;) Bananinn sýnir líka vel stærðina á honum.

Þegar ég var lítil lærði ég á gæsluvellinum lítið apalag sem ég söng og söng. Kannist þið við þetta?

"Apar borða ekki sultu,

þeir borða bara banana"

Hvað er uppáhalds dýrið ykkar?

Affen sind so süße kleine Tiere, und sehr mit uns selbst verwandt. Als ich klein war wollte ich immer einen Affen als Haustier haben. Statt dessen habe ich mir vorgestellt ein Affenmächen zu sein und Stundenlang draußen im Garten mit meinem besten Freund Affen gespielt. Da er genauso sehr Affen mag wie ich, als ich erfahren habe das er Papa wird war kein Zweifel welches Tierchen ich für seine Kleine häkeln würde.

Ist der Affe nicht goldig? :) Die Orginal Anleitung ist von Pepika und kann in dem Buch Zoomigurumi gefunden werden, oder über den Link der hier oben angegeben ist.

Was ist Euer Lieblingstier? 

Heute bin ich wieder bei Häkelliebe und Freutag dabei, und gehe mich jetzt da rumsehen :)

Bis bald meine lieben und nicht vergessen, ich liebe Komments und was von euch zu hören, ich habe auch eine Facebook Seite wo ich auch gerne neue Likes und Kommentare sehen möchte, so verpasst man nie einen Blog Post.

Happy Halloween

Boo!

B is for broomsticks witches to fly,

O is outrageous spooks that go by,

O is for orange pumpkins so bright, 

These are the signs of a Halloween night.

Die kleine Hexe freut sich immer sehr auf Halloween, mit ihrem großen Hut und Kürbis wartet sie auf die sternenklare Nacht, damit sie beim Vollmondlicht am Himmel wieder fliegen darf.

Happy Halloween

Catch of the Day

I have so many projects that are so close to be finished. Many just need some sewing up to be finished, others just have been put on ice. I am not even counting my WIP's for you ;) It might have something to do with blogging, 'cause I used to hurry up to finish something, so I could blog about it and add it to some linking party for that day. Today my blogpost will only be in English, but your comments may be in either English, German or Icelandic. I am picking English today since most of my readers lately have been clicking from English speaking countries or non-German, non-Icelandic speaking ones. 

So welcome world. Now the latest news. For those who didn't know it, I am from Iceland and as an Icelandic Viking Girl I can tell you that I cought a whale ;) now before the greenpeacer out there will throw animal blood all over my blog, calm down please, 'cause I cought the whale in my stash hence picture ;)

It is a friendly whale that always has a tissue for you if you need one (that is if the box he covers isn't empty). When do you need a tissue more than in the car. With a lavender filled birdie in the front window, we now have a Moby Dick in the back window ;)

The Idea came from Moogly.com I did however only use the Idea and the tail pattern for my little Moby here, since tissue box size varies and I had a smaller hook and wanted a snuggle opening as well, so there wouldn't be cardust falling in my box.

Isn't the tail/fluke supercute?

So what have you been up to lately? Well I can certainly say without blinking I cought a whale ;)

I am using a blogger app to write my blogpost today, and I can't seem to be able to insert a direct link, but if you copy paste this one you can get over to Moogly's blog for her pattern and catch of the day
