Miniature Thread Crochet!

I've started getting back into crocheting and knitting. I start and stop hobbies a lot, cycling through them because I never can pick just one or two. It's a pity that I can't pick a couple, because then I'd be really really good at those things, rather than just kinda good at a whole bunch of things. I suppose that has merit, too, though.
Here's a little dog I crocheted. (Yes, the absence of back legs is an artistic choice...)


There's also an apple, complete with stem and leaf!

And a tiny basket.

I like miniature crochet. It's adorable, as most tiny things are, it's quick, and they're fun to make. I have a problem making two of anything, like gloves or socks. I like making up my own patterns, most that I make up as I make the item, and writing it down seems tedious. Oh, well, at least socks and mittens make good Christmas presents!

Nathan's Birthday Beetle

As usual, I sent off a birthday present really late, but he liked it anyway! I saw one somebody did on Ravelry, and made one myself. Nathan likes bugs, so I thought it was appropriate! I used scrap yarn, two different greens.
