Time for another post in the dino series! This is Time for another post in the dino series! This is Brian the Brachiosaurus and he is, perhaps, the friendliest dinosaur around! 🦕 Brian was actually my first dinosaur pattern and still one of my faves!
.
I just got back from a whirlwind weekend to see the Eras tour in Toronto and now I can’t believe it’s over! 😭 I’m ready to settle into the Holiday season now though. 🎄 
.
Let me know if you’d like Brian’s pattern and I’ll DM you the link!

Boo! 👻 Hello, friends! It never fails; around this Boo! 👻 Hello, friends! It never fails; around this time of year I get the urge to start a Halloween blanket. 😆 This time I’ve decided to make a ghostie blanket using neon faux fur yarn and I can tell you, I’m already thrilled. The ghostie pattern I’m using is from @andshelaughs . The blanket is just a simple moss stitch square blanket in the round in a charcoal yarn.
.
Hope you’re having a good weekend! I’m trying to relax and keep my spirits up with my crochet projects because I’ve had a trying week. 😅 My Etsy shop got hit by scammers this week, resulting in dozens of fraudulent transactions and bots leaving upwards of 50 1-star reviews in my shop (which brought my shop rating down from a nearly 5.0 rating to 4.5 overnight and losing my star-seller status 😩). I’m hoping Etsy will be able to help me out!

I hope you had a great Friday the 13th yesterday! I hope you had a great Friday the 13th yesterday! 🔪 🩸 Seems like the perfect time to share my zombie kitty pattern! 😸 (fyi, I’ve also seen this pattern made without the zombie features; just a cute little kitten! A ball of yarn is a perfect substitute for the brain. 🧠😜🧶)
The pattern is available in my shops or on the Hobbii website!
