My Crochet Journey So Far

I learned to crochet when I was 16. My Great Grandmother was living with us at the time. She was a prolific crocheter. I had broken up with a boyfriend and was moping around the house. My Grandmother couldn't stand it so she sat me down and taught me how to crochet. She taught me how to crochet the granny square and let me tell you that that was the HUGEST granny square afghan that anyone has ever made! I just kept going and going and going! I slowly branched out from making afghans to making sweaters and other things. I don't intend to post patterns because these are not my original designs. I just thought it would be fun to have some sort of record of what I have made and who it went to.

Wonder Woman Buddy

This is the finished doll. I enjoyed making her. I thought the hands were a bit hard to figure out, but eventually I managed to get them finished.

The hair was a challenge as well, but I think it turned out okay. A bit poufy, but it will work.    


The woman that created the patterns for the superhero's is giving them away for free here: http://crochet.craftgossip.com/mary-has-copyright-issues-with-disney-so-she-is-giving-away-these-patterns/2015/06/14/

Apparently Disney told her that she could not sell the patterns so she is offering them free on her site. I picked up patterns for Thor, Superman, Batman, Spiderman, Captain America and this Wonder Woman. This one is for a little girl's birthday. When her mom saw these she showed them to all of her children and they all want one. I'll be making the boys each one for Christmas.
