Small teacups

So I updated my keychain from before. I added a teabag!


I then made another for my mom's co-worker who LOVES tea. It was her idea to make the teabags!




Teabag
Leave long tail, this will be used for the string of the tea bag and attached to the cup
Ch 4, Sc in second ch for hook and in next 2 ch, turn
Row 2-3(or to your desired height): Ch 1, sc in each sc across, turn
At end of row 3, fasten off and weave tail into piece
Using long tail from the beginning, attach to top rim of cup where ever you'd like the tea bag to be coming out of the cup.

I've been busy!

A devil, snail, ladybug

The devil was made from the same pattern that I used to make the previous devil (Pattern here), but instead I used the head shape for the body and the body for the head. I think it turned out nicely actually. I don't know why the sizes still seem wrong, but they are what they are.



I then made my mom a snail from this pattern, here.
I didn't realize until after that I should have made the body much longer, to go all the way under the shell. But live and learn, and that's what I'm doing with my crocheting!



And last but not least for this post. One of my favorites so far. A ladybug for my mom! I didn't add the legs as suggested by the pattern, but you rarely see ladybug legs any way, and I think she looks better without them any way. I also used 2 different hook sizes on the circles on her back, and I added a line down her back to make it look like the line that seperates the wings. The pattern can be found here.
