To finish the project off,I will crochet (with a different hook) a white circle and add the first initial of the baby's name to the circle. This pattern is pretty easy to follow and works up pretty quickly. I'm not a beginner, but I don't consider myself an advanced crocheter either and this project took me about 3 hours to complete both shoes. I'd love to see if any of you make these and how they turn out.

Recent Projects
This past holiday season brought on some commissioned projects that I'm proud to share now. I am currently working on finishing up a baby sweater, more minion hats, cabbage patch hats and a baby lovey for clients.
These Little Me dolls went to two little girls named Marissa and Emily. They were crocheted with worsted weight Red Heart Super Saver yarn and I purchased the patterns at Ravelry.com. They each took a few weeks to make (I made another one before these and didn't like the way the pattern was turning out, so I frogged it.) Each doll stands about 12" tall and are really soft and huggable.
Minion Fever has hit Crochetland and these hats are hot commodities. I made these two infant hats and had another order for a teen girl that I'm finishing up soon. Miss Sarah has also requested one from Mom when my other orders are complete and I owe Mr. Freddy one too. I think I'll make an army of Minions to have on hand (just in case!).

Christmas is coming and....
...the minutes are whizzing by! I've gotten three different orders for Christmas gifts, but if I share with you I might ruin the surprise. I CAN tell you that they involve amigurumi, clothing and accessories of various shapes and sizes, but I won't post until after the items have been delivered to their prospective Santas. I am thrilled to be able to share my crochet with others this holiday season and I still have a little bit of time to squeak in some custom orders (depending on what is wanted), so if you need a unique gift please let me know. I will stop taking orders for Christmas on December 8th, so order soon. How? Email (cindy.holda@gmail.com) or visit my Facebook page and let me know that you're interested. I can do hats, scarves, shawls, dolls and small toys that are all affordable (and safe for babies). Thanks for stopping by today!

Owl Hat & Mittens
Well, here they are! I'm pleased with the way they turned and out and even more proud of myself for the mittens. I found 4-5 different patterns for the thumbless baby mitts, but I frogged them all because they were written poorly and things weren't working. I ended up started them like the amigurumi dolls (magic ring and spiral sc) until I got to the length I wanted, and then I changed color to sc around and then added double crochets every few stitches to make the holes for the "laces" to go through. Worked like a charm! I think it's really cute and I hope my recipient likes it too.
I have patterns for all sorts of animals - a dog, cat, duck, bear, sock monkey, pig, cow, lion, penguin and rabbit. Then there's the now popular Despicable Me Minions and Mickey/Minnie caps. I guess if you can think of it, there's a pattern for it or it can be created. Are you ready for winter? If not, I'd love to crochet a special one-of-a-kind hat (and mittens or wristers) just for you!
