I am VERY excited to bring you Clara from amieggs and her most adorable Amigurumi or Crocheted Small Things. She makes wonderful creations, that are normally available for purchase. But she has decided to be VERY generous and share two of her patterns with you. Below you will find the most adorable teddy and then hop over to her blog for a bunny (get it – “hop over”? ahem). She has inspired me to learn to crochet. I have never been interested before.. but now, my crochet hooks are on order! Woohoo. Over to the lovely Clara and her fabulous creations:
Hello! My name is Clara and I run the amieggs blog over at http://ami-eggs.blogspot.com/ =)
I love crocheting, and dedicate my blog to all my creations. The name of the blog, amieggs, comes from the name I’ve given my own little creatures:
Amieggs are little crochet eggs dressed up as a bunch of things… from animals to food! Here are some of my favorites:
The fox, the penguin, the elephant and the corn on the cob!
I also enjoy crocheting furniture. My first project was this tiny living room:
And I further on moved to slightly bigger furniture like the following armchair, in a 1:6 scale to fit my Blythe doll =)
Today, I would like to share a free pattern with you all!!! It is part of the newest patern in my shop, the toy chest!
As you can see, in my patterns I draw diagrams to explain the difficult parts of a project and include many pictures to make your work as easy as possible!!!
While the toy chest pattern is available in my shop, you can get the teddy bear pattern here totally for free and the bunnies pattern on my blog! Hope you enjoy it, and I love to see all your finished creations!!! Feel free to leave a comment on my blog (
http://ami-eggs.blogspot.com/) or even share your pictures with me on flickr!!! (

Gorgeous ! I would love to learn to crochet – I can knit so it can;t be too hard – can it ?!
I taught myself here: http://www.redtedart.com/2011/02/18/how-to-teach-yourself-to-crochet/ ?
I love those little eggies! What a great gift for a little one, to make a dozen and present in an egg carton
Ooh wouldn’t they just be adorable for Easter?!
I\’ve been crocheting a loooooooong time and have never seen anything this adorable or creative. I\’m blown away. Great work!!!
New to Pinterest and just saw you adorable bunnies, etc. I\’m new to crocheting too but I won\’t go into that
I thought I had all the patterns but am just noticing I didn\’t get the toy chest. I can\’t seem to find the free pattern now – did you move it??? ALSO – very interested in purchasing patterns for the Christmas eggs I saw so I can get started early! Are those patterns available somewhere??? Do you have some sort of sleigh yet??? Thanks so much – I love your work!!!
Hi Gizmo – the Teddy and Bunny where free patterns from our lovely Guest Poster.. which does mean that the chest is one you have to buy – Sorry
Oh – OK. What about the Christmas egg patterns – are they available yet??? Christmas sleigh or a \”present\” box pattern (something to hold the eggs)???
Your best bet is to leave Clara a comment on her blog? http://blog.amieggs.com/ Sorry to not be more helpful
