Hello Tipzdiggers,
With the holiday season approaching I will be adding a few new dolls. My latest doll is a cute amigurumi bunny.
I love these little guys and hope you do too!

Hello Tipzdiggers,
For those of us in South Carolina the first week of school is finished. Getting four kids ready to go back to school is exhausting!
UPDATE
Lynda who won the Amigurumi Bear giveaway got her little bear safely. The little Ami traveled all the way to Australia.
Hi Amber
I just wanted to let you know that the bear arrived today.
She was very well wrapped and protected.
She is so sweet and adorable.
My girls are already arguing over who is to have her.
( They both lose. I am keeping her.LOL.)
Thank you so much.
I do appreciate it.
Lynda

Hello Tipzdiggers,
Just a quick note to let you know that I have listed 3 new crochet books in the store.
1) Mr. Funk's Super Crochet Wonderful
http://www.curlsofsunshine.tipzu.com/mr-funky039s-super-crochet-wonderfu...
This book is one of my favorites. Great for beginners and quick projects for the more experienced crocheter.
Included in this book are 9 patterns for toys and 16 patterns for accessories.
Also, I read in the front cover "It is permissible for the purchaser to make the projects contained herein and sell them..."
2) The Ultimate Sourcebook of Knitting and Crochet Stitches
http://www.curlsofsunshine.tipzu.com/ultimate-sourcebook-knitting-and-cr...
This book is a great resource. I love how it combines the crochet with the knitting.
Summer is almost over and it will soon be time for school. For me that means extra time to work on my crochet projects.
One project I plan to check out is this one:

Remember you do not have to stick to the main pattern. Be creative! Add things such as beads, sequins, tiny buttons or pom poms.
Enjoy ♥
Amber

Hello Tipzdiggers,
Recently someone asked me how to knit baby washcloths. Baby washcloths are simple and quick to make. Great project for the summer.
Here is a link to a free dishcloth and scrubber. http://tankhouse.knitability.com/freepatterns/DishClothDuo.pdf
If you want to make a baby washcloth just stop increasing when you reach the size you prefer.
If you crochet just chain the desired amount and either single stitch or double stitch (my favorite) until you reach the length you want.
Stay cool!
Happy Crocheting!
Amber :)
