Well....I finished my noggin, but she's not according to pattern 100%. That's mostly due to I am not a sewer (not sue-er - it's so-er) lol. I had the most difficult time putting the feet, legs and arms on. The ears were relatively easy compared to the others. I made my own eyes, which I wrote down how I made them, but when I sewed them on they took on a shape of their own. And the nose was ok and the mouth is a 'remake'. All in all she's not bad. Kylie will love her because - a)motorcycle granny made her
b)she is of the purple species
c)she has pink on her
I don't know if anyone has written an eye pattern before but here is what I did -
using brown -
ch 2
6 sc in 2nd ch from hook, join with white
ch 4, turn
sc, hdc, dc, sl st in 1st brown sc
sl st in next brown sc
ch 4, turn
sc, hdc, dc, sk 1 brown sc, sl st next brown sc, sl st next 2 brown sc
sl st next 3 on bottom side of white to end & fasten off. leave tail long to sew on.
They looked great before I sewed them on the noggin. Oh well.
Don't forget Paula's giveaway Confessions of a Crochet Pattern Slut . She's got some great stuff! (I know, I've been a swap partner with her!!)

Did you see where I can't find the list of elves and fairies No idea why I didn't save it. It was in the same list as he memebership . . but, somehow, it got deleted . . or just not saved. I sure wish I knew what I wanted to do for mine? Decisions, decisions, decisions . . .

Oh no...you can't find your list? That bites! I haven't looked on ravelry in a week or so. I've been busy trying to get birthday and Christmas presents finished. Oh, and work of course. :o) But when I'm not busy at work I am crocheting. I even have 3 of the bunny bookmarks that other people want me to make for them after they have seen them. I have no idea what to charge them!
