A Fan-Tastic New Special Order

When I first got this special order I had no idea how I was going to crochet a fan, but after creating the pattern I think I've found a cute spin on this beautiful accessory.

Above is the picture she asked me to make the crochet fan like.

I will post pictures soon!!!!

Meet Crochet Barrel

We met him first in Nightmare Before Christmas as one of the evil little henchmen of the Mr. Oggie Boogie man. See him now as you've never seen him before-crocheted!

When I got this order I knew that it was going to be a challenge. I looked at the picture included with the requested and knew I had to try it.
I created the pattern and worked for hours on his mask and hair. I even made him a lollipop. :)

He may very well be the only crochet Barrel out there. I did a google search and couldn't find anything like him. :) It's good to know I've made something truly unique.

I listened to "kidnap the sandy claus" for hours for inspiration.

One of my friends said it looked like "joker had a baby." To me that's a compliment. :D I didn't want him to look too cutsie.

I have another pattern style for him I want to try, but it will have to wait until after the holidays since I have so many orders. I really had fun creating his pattern though!

He just wants to hug you-don't you trust him? ;)

We spent so much time together-I can't believe he's off to his new home this weekend!

1up Mushrooms are here!

He'll save your life!

This little guy makes a great friend. Rain or shine he's a life saver! ;)
Wait-are you laying down on the job? I was just talking you up. *grumble* ;)
Anyway moving along...

Update 11/08/2010: I am booked for the holidays and although I am still taking orders I can no longer guarantee that your order will be done by Christmas this year. Thank you for your understanding and for making my business so successful! I owe it to all the fans out there! :)

The mushrooms pictured have already been sold but I can make you one in 1-2 weeks of your order depending on how many orders I have.

Can't get enough why not get 2!

You can put them next to your coffee mug. ;)

Or mix and match. :)


This mushroom means business. ;)

Tiny-the smallest of the mushrooms

"Don't call me cute!"

If these little guys could talk. ;)

By far the smallest of my mushroom creations the tiny poison mushroom stands only an inch tall. I can make these in 1up, super, and other mushroom varities.
For being so small this tiny guy has a lot of attitude!

These are two different styles/patterns I made.

This is my second pattern. I think he has the most attitude.

He's already found a home. They just don't last long.
