Little Pocket Friends vol 1

It is fun to crochet big toys, they are good for cuddle and they don't get lost as quickly as the small ones. The only bad thing is that it takes a lot of time before you can see the outcome. At the moment I am in the mood of crocheting small animals. You do not need a lot of yarn for that but actually there is quite a lot of work with these small creatures. But this is the fun part of crocheting amigurumi toys. Before I start crocheting I draw a little sketch on paper to see how the creature might look like. Then I take a bit of colourful yarn and start to crochet. The outcome is not always like the drawing but I think that often it is even better. I have several papers full of sketches of little creatures waiting for me to bring them to life. 

I would like to introduce you the first little pocket friends.

Suuri mänguasju on väga tore heegeldada, neid on hea kaissu võtta ja nad ei kao nii kergesti ära. Ainus viga on see, et läheb päris kaua aega, enne kui lõpptulemust näha saab. Praegu olen väikeste loomade heegeldamise lainel. Materjalikulu nende tegemiseks ei ole eriti suur, aga nokitsemist on tegelikult ikka omajagu. See nokitsemine aga just teebki mänguasjade heegeldamise nii põnevaks. Enne, kui midagi heegeldama hakkan, joonistan paberile väikese visandi, milline umbes loomake välja näha võiks, siis võtan natuke värvilist lõnga ja hakkan heegeldama. Alati ei ole lõpptulemus selline, nagu paberil, kuid sageli on see minu arvates isegi parem. Mul on mitu paberit visandeid täis väikestest elukatest, mis ootavad ellu äratamist.

Tahaksingi teile nüüd tutvustada esimesi väikseid taskusõpru.
