Crochet Shoes (Flats, Mary Jane's, and Boots Included)

Image
My nuiMO collection has grown exponentially and with more friends means a lack of shoes. Have you noticed this? My friends definitely needed more shoes and I thought I could figure out a crochet pattern fairly easily. I found out quickly that I had to make two patterns because Tigger's feet are huge compared to others' feet. I hope that's the case for everyone that owns him. With these patterns you can't stop at certain points to make certain types of shoes. You can make: flats, Mary Jane's, regular shoes, and boots. It's notated in the patterns where you can do this. As always stated, I'm giving these patterns for free but please don't use them in any way for profit. I'd be most grateful. Remember, these patterns are written in US abbreviations. What You'll Need: Thinner yarn Scissors E Hook (3.50 mm) Yarn Needle Stitch Marker Abbreviations: MAR = magic adjustable ring ch = crochet sc = single crochet st = stitch inc = increase stitch inv dec = ...

Crochet Mr. and Mrs. Santa Claus Outfits

Image
Almost a month ago I crocheted some Santa hats for my nuiMOs. I had run out of my crochet thread I made for Jack's hat and so I had to dress him in what I had available. Well, I finally found some crochet thread at Michael's that was the perfect match! So I finally got to work on making Jack and Sally cute Mr. and Mrs. Santa Claus outfits. (Or Mr. and Mrs. Sandy Claws, whatever you'd like.) I'm so happy with how they turned out. I'm going to be sharing the patterns on this blog post, so it's going to be a long one. Take your time when looking over and let me know if there are any mistakes. Please remember that these patterns are being shared for personal use only. Don't duplicate or make any products from these patterns for purchase. Thank you! What You'll Need: Red crochet thread (super fine 1) Fluffy white yarn/material E Hook (3.50 mm) Scissors Needle Thread Crochet stitch counter Velcro, or some other kind of closure  Elastic for bow American Abbre...

Crochet Santa Hat

Image
  'Tis the Season for Holiday crafting! With the lack of Holiday outfits from shopDisney, I knew that I had to find something to dress my nuiMOs. The sweaters above aren't made by me or Disney, they're $3 ornaments from Target! There are four to choose from and a little tricky to put on. You have to start one foot at a time and go slowly to get the rest. I may adjust them to make it easier in the future. Anyway, onto the crochet patterns. That's right, I said pattern s . There are two versions of the Santa hat. One is made with this thin yarn (I think it's used to lacework) that I've had lying around and the other is made with Red Heart yarn and has ear holes put right in so we don't lose Mickey or Minnie's ears. As per the norm, I'm in America so the abbreviations in the pattern are accordingly so; and I'm sharing these in good faith. Please don't use these for monetary gain.  What You'll Need: Red yarn (thin or regular) Fluffy white yar...

Crochet LUCA (Sea Monster) Onesie

Image
  This was the first character I wanted to make into a onesie. This character is Luca in his sea monster form from the upcoming PIXAR movie LUCA. I think he's adorable so I had to make something of him! To do this onesie you'll have to go back to the crochet sweater pattern to understand how I accomplished the top and sleeves. And as another construction note, the back opening will be quite large so you'll have to sew up some of the bottom starting from the legs to aesthetic and wearing purposes. Remember, I'm located in America so the pattern abbreviations are accordingly so. And, as usual, I'm sharing these patterns in good faith. Please don't sell the pattern or any product made from it. Thanks! What you'll need: Thinner yarn (Green, Blue, Yellow, Red) 3.5 mm (E) hook Scissors Stitch marker Yarn needle Closure (snaps or velcro) for the back Optional: Buttons for eyes  Abbreviations: MAR = magic adjustable ring  st = stitch sc = single crochet dc = ...

Crochet BAYMAX Onesie

Image
  I had this cute idea for making a onesie after seeing some cute ones on a FB crafters group. The problem was I didn't know which characters I wanted to do. BAYMAX was actually the second character that came to mine and I'll write the first idea right after this one. I decided on BAYMAX because he is simple in design and would be easy to translate to this kind of design. To do this onesie you'll have to go back to the crochet sweater pattern to understand how I accomplished the top and sleeves. And as another construction note, the back opening will be quite large so you'll have to sew up some of the bottom starting from the legs to aesthetic and wearing purposes. Remember, I'm located in America so the pattern abbreviations are accordingly so. And, as usual, I'm sharing these patterns in good faith. Please don't sell the pattern or any product made from it. Thanks! What you'll need: Thinner yarn (Two colors if you want yours like mine.) 3.5 mm (E) h...

Crochet Overall Dress

I almost forgot about the pattern for this cute number. I should've created this one before I did the other dresses . This one by far a lot easier than those ones, especially for those just starting out crocheting in the round. Remember, I'm located in America so the pattern abbreviations are accordingly so. And, as usual, I'm sharing these patterns in good faith. Please don't sell the pattern or any product made from it. Thanks! What you'll need: Thinner yarn (Two colors if you want yours like mine.) 3.5 mm (E) hook Scissors Stitch marker Yarn needle  Abbreviations: MAR = magic adjustable ring  st = stitch sc = single crochet dc = double crochet sl st = slip stitch inc = increase stitch inv dec = invisible decrease *...* = repeat inside as indicated    DRESS: SKIRT: ch 30, sl st Rnd 1: sc around (30) Rnd 2: *sc 4 st, inc* x 6 (36) Rnd 3: ch 2, *dc 2 st, inc* x 12, sl st (48) Rnd 4: ch 2, dc around, sl st (48) Rnd 5: [Contrast Color] ch 1, *sc 3 st, inc* x 12,...

Crochet Hat w/ Brim (or Beanie)

Image
 Now here's a simple pattern that anyone new to crocheting in the round can try. This hat is created exclusively in the round with the exception of the brim. As an added thing, you don't even have to make the brim and you've got yourself a beanie for your nuiMOs to wear. You can even add a little pompom to add to the cozy factor. Remember, I'm located in America so the pattern abbreviations are accordingly so. And, as usual, I'm sharing these patterns in good faith. Please don't sell the pattern or any product made from it.

Crochet Dresses, Bow, and Beret

Image
It's time for more crochet patterns! I finally got a hold of some yarn that I thought would be the perfect thickness to make some cute outfits for my nuiMOs. I wanted thinner stuff because detail work is so much better when you have more stitches to work with. I was going for a different kind of dress but I need to rehearse myself in lace-work to get the feeling I want. Right off the bat I will tell you that Minnie's dress is easier to start off with. Both dresses have the same start but it's the bottom that makes Miss Piggy's dress a bit more difficult. No matter what, I hope you take the chance to make all of these items. At the moment I'm unsure about the fit of these dress for Daisy. From what I understand Daisy's got back so it may lie a bit different on her. I'm thinking of adopting her and her main man pretty soon, though, so I can make sure these patterns fit all nuiMOs. As always I share these patterns in good faith. Please don't use these patte...

Crochet Mickey Blanket

Image
 Long time no write. And you'll see why. There are so many things to catch up on that my brain was like: I don't want to! It's a struggle, hahaha. To start off I wanted to write about an experience I had making a crochet Mickey blanket for all of my beds in my nuiMOs house. It was kind of frustrating because I used this pattern . The author of this pattern says that the stitch they used to make the Mickey shape is a puff stitch. I can tell you right now that this is incorrect. I started my first square by using a puff stitch and I thought that the Mickey shape wasn't protruding out enough. This is when I discovered it needed to be a bobble stitch. So please, for you sanity, do a bobble stitch. I have provided the picture above to show you the difference between the stitches. I thought I wanted to used the purple yarn for my blankets but I didn't like how jarring the change was between the colors. So I switched to a mustard yellow and it worked out so much better. Th...

Crochet nuiMOs Sweater Pattern

Image
 I wanted to create cute sweaters that my nuiMOs could wear made from yarn. I've been making amigurumi for years at this point so I had an idea of what I could do. I also made this so it would be easy to take on and off of the nuiMOs since they have such large heads and yarn only stretches so much. So there is velcro to close the sweater on the back. Please remember, I'm sharing these patterns in good faith. Don't use this pattern to make finished pieces for profit, just personal use. Same goes for the pattern.    Sweater Pattern : *G (4.5mm) hook This yarn is a 4 worsted weight.   Body of Sweater: Ch 25 1: sc 24, ch 1, turn (24) SIDES: 2: sc 5 st (5) 3: sc 5 st (5) MIDDLE: 2: sc 6 st (6) 3 sc 6 st (6)   This is what it'll look like after filling in the sides and middle. There's a 4 st gap in between.   4: sc 5 st, ch 4, sc 6 st, ch 4, sc 5 st, ch 1, turn (12)   This is what it should look like after row 4. 5: sc 24 st across (24)  6-8: sc acros...
