Strick-und Häkel-Blogschulden, die erste: Ei-hein kleiner Maaaa-troooo-seeee *singt*

Uups - ich hab in letzter Zeit über alles mögliche gebloggt, nur nicht über mein Strick -und Häkelzeuchs - das muss anders werden!


Hier der kleine Matrose, das vor einiger Zeit an dieser Stelle angekündigte Schnuffeltuch aus Wolle Rödel Allround-Resten (und das Gesicht ist aus Baumwolle).

Ich hab vergessen, ihm eine Häkelnase zu machen, ergo hat er eine aufgestickt bekommen.

Eine wirklich hübsche Anleitung, finde ich, auch wenn ich nächstes Mal den Kopf oben anfangen werde- die Zunahmen sind unsichtbarer als die Abnahmen, wenigstens bei mir.

Mal was anderes als Baby-Geschenk als Schühchen oder Socken!

A little sailor

There is a CAL for Doudous like this in the German Crochet group. As there are a number of colleagues exspecting, I thought this would be a nice change from the normal booties. Quite like how this little guy turned out, he reminds me of a little sailor, hence the name.
I first saw this one at stitchesinstyle - hers is extremely cute, too!
I started from the bottom with the head, but I wish I would have started with the hat as given in pattern as the decreases are quite visible, the increases would have been neater - well, next time.
And I forgot to crochet the nose, so I had to add it later by embroidery.
I first did not understand what the translation engine gave me for the ruffle at the head - what I did is turn around and work three dc in the back loop only , alternating with a sc to attach them. Then you turn again and work in the so far unworked front loop - at least that is what I did.
For the edging at the dress, I did tc s , 5 in each chain space, again attaching them with scs.
Left out the bow tie.
Very cute little pattern, I intend to do more from the same designer!
