Jiji the Black cat

 

What could be a better accessory for a witch than a black cat, that you could cuddle when it gets too scary during Halloween...

I have nothing more to say :) The picture is saying everything for me

I have to say I am extremly pleased with how he looks like ( a bit demonic) and I am so tempted to make one cat for each color of yarn I have, but who have the time :(. So if anyone of You will make one of those cats from my pattern please send the photos to: krawka.blog@gmail.com.

Maybe we will make a kind of "hair cat" gallery :)

Halloween Coaster - Wicked Witch

Halloween Coasters - Wicked Witch.
There is no Halloween without witch and from now on without witch coasters. I love green witches they definitely are eye-catching. I decided to make her hair white, but If You would like Your witch to be more colorful make it violet or orange or even blue. Maybe You could do the whole set with different hair colors.

Materials:

• white, black, green  yarn ( I use the yarn which gauge is 24.0 to 30.0 sts = 4 inches )
• a bit of white material for eyes.
• hook 3 mm

Halloween Coasters - Black cat

Halloween Coasters Pattern - Black Cat. You can't have Halloween without black cat! So stop whatever You are doing right now and make a cat! I'm serious YOU HAVE TO! :)
P.S I' m not really the best descriptions writer so my text's are getting dumber and dumber... So Sorry about that.

Materials:

Halloween Project sneak peek 2

Halloween Coasters are here! I think they will be a wonderful table decoration for everyone who like their Halloween to be a little creepy and much more cute. I hope You like them. Until now I made seven of them:

• Ghost
• Spirit
• Vampire
• Frankenstein
• Witch
• Black Cat
• Orange Cat

but I can't say I won't make more. I love projects that have the same base. I can make bases while watching my son, it is easier to watch out for one hook and one yarn than a whole bunch of potentially dangerous accessories and bunch of parts like hands, eyes, etc.
So I have other ideas for coasters like werewolf or pumpkin, maybe You have some suggestions?

Starting today I am collecting pictures, rewriting patterns and making posts about each of those coasters starting with the base and smile pattern which is cohesive in all coasters.
