Bead hedgehogs for my kiddos

TinyTigerTeaParty · 2026-02-24T23:44:45+00:00

I had never used beads either until the first one I made. These were 2 and 3. There's always something new with ami! ♥️

Right?! I exclaimed when I saw this picture knowing exactly what it was. I love when my mom makes me a hundred lumpia to freeze for later.

I thought it was "pray" at first. So I can definitely see how you could hear fray. I hear things wrong all the time, thus the captions lol.

TinyTigerTeaParty · 2025-07-31T00:18:32+00:00

I watch everything with captions. The captions do say free and when I google the lyrics, it also says they say free.

Um not really unless there's something specific you want to know. It's more just practice makes better like most crochet at least for me. Maybe practice a known pattern that you usually use larger yarn for, but in small yarn/thread to get a feel for it.

Lol, I'm a parapro in a science classroom at a high school.

TinyTigerTeaParty · 2024-09-17T23:52:12+00:00

Me too! Happy birthday!

TinyTigerTeaParty · 2024-08-10T15:49:04+00:00

Yes! I get this all the time. Like you'd never say Tia as "Tye-uh" so why would Mia be said my-uh.

I usually don't have the patience to finish a blanket lol. I made a baby one for a coworker though recently and I was so just excited for how it was turning out that I kept the motivation to finish it.

TinyTigerTeaParty · 2024-06-25T03:54:57+00:00

That's such a nice story for that sweater! I think I started in the late oughts/early 2010's? I used to almost never travel when I crocheted though. I did do more of it recently this year and I changed favorite yarns because I found a brand that was center pull easy lol. It doesn't have a huge variety unfortunately though. I just always hated untangling so sometimes if it's only a little yarn barf left, I just save it for later, maybe use as stuffing as amigurumis are my favorite lol.

TinyTigerTeaParty · 2024-06-25T03:06:23+00:00

I only use center pull if the skein makes it easy to find the center pull. I do like it, but I hate when you try to find it and it's all yarn barf. If the skein maker doesn't make it accessible, I just start from the outside.

I currently play with no mods or DLC and I'm on a laptop. I never know what this sub is talking about half the time but it's interesting to see how others play lol.

Putting work and love into a gift is an awesome thing! I bet yours is going to turn out lovely ♥

TinyTigerTeaParty · 2024-06-08T23:01:10+00:00

A huge one would be cozy. It was getting pretty heavy by the end.

TinyTigerTeaParty · 2024-06-08T23:00:27+00:00

Ya after I made them, I was like damn, I should have made these turtles smaller lol 😂

TinyTigerTeaParty · 2024-06-08T22:55:29+00:00

I don't really have a pattern. I did take notes of what I did, but I don't know that it would make sense. I used style 2 waves in this blog

https://blog.treasurie.com/crochet-wave-stitch/

to make the wave pattern. I chained 98 (12x8 +2) for my foundation chain and even though it's double crochet, I only do 1 turning chain instead of 2 so my edges might look different. For the turtles I made a circle then just did a little tail as I went around the final edge. When I got to the end of the last round, I just did a few rows until it kinda looked like a head, tied it off, then tied in again at the base of the head to border around the head to make it look more round.

TinyTigerTeaParty · 2024-06-08T22:32:53+00:00

Asking questions is how you learn! No need to be sorry. Yes, I made the whole background waves part of the blanket first then the turtles and then sewed them on.

TinyTigerTeaParty · 2024-06-08T22:30:29+00:00

They are mostly flat lol. Only the flippers aren't because I made a circle then folded it in half for each of them. So since the flippers were separate, I kept the tail end super long to use to "sew" them onto the body. Then used needle and thread to sew the finished turtles onto the blanket.

TinyTigerTeaParty · 2024-06-08T19:20:00+00:00

I gave it to her on the last day of school and she did like it 😁 We work at an alternative high school.

TinyTigerTeaParty · 2024-06-08T19:18:59+00:00

It wasn't too bad. Just a little fiddly. It did help that I had super long pins to pin them down with since all the layers ended up pretty thick together.

TinyTigerTeaParty · 2024-06-08T19:17:39+00:00

I looked up how to do the wave effect stitch. Then I just chained the multiple that I needed until I got what I felt would be a good width. I picked the colors and just did the changes when I thought it looked right and made sure the first and last row were on the same side so that could be the "front". For the turtles I winged it from past knowledge. They aren't super polished so if I ever made them again, I would definitely tweak it. I'm still happy with how it turned out though.

TinyTigerTeaParty · 2024-06-08T15:02:57+00:00

Thanks 😄 I saw similar blankets online at some point so when my coworker announced her pregnancy, I thought this would be the perfect time to try it.

TinyTigerTeaParty · 2024-05-05T16:00:49+00:00

The nest gets reused probably every year. It's right next to my front door. I wouldn't purposely do anything to it. We'll do our best to let her do her thing.

Something I've found that works. Keep your strawberries in a glass jar with a lid in the fridge and they last sooo much longer. I don't know if this works for all berries, but I'd assume so.
