Our house is a little Batman obsessed at the moment. It started with some Batman Duplo and is currently at… Crochet Batman Teddy Dress-ups!
I’ve used double crochet (single crochet in the US) but next time I would do Treble crochet (double crochet) for the cape so it sits looser. As it is, it constantly looks like it’s flapping around, which is kinda cool.
Do you know how hard it is to take a photo of a 3 yo and her Bat-teddy?! 
After some not very subtle hinting from my Mum I made my first Amigurumi project today! Mum send my a Pin on Pinterest with the oh so subtle comment “hint hint”. As I’m on a bit of a family crochet gifting theme and it’s her birthday soon – shh don’t tell…
I used this free Lion Brand pattern and add the embellishments from the hint hint picture.
Making an Amigurumi Tea Cup in the sun – Psst, the back ground will be featured in the next post..
We had a girls day as hubby was at work, and it was a beautiful Sunny Winters Day.
We also did coffee and Gelato followed by some playing in the fountain…
which led to, some op shopping for a dry size 4 top….
followed by some sitting on a mat in the sun on the grass, crocheting, playing with Robo Poli cars and picking dandelions.

I hope Mum likes it and is OK with my firsts ever Crochet Amigurumi and its little faults… It’s a bit lop-sided and I’m thinking the saucer should have been the other way up….
This one can be used as a pin cushion, my Mum is a sewer, I put rice in the bottom and ripped open an old pillow (go the upcycle) to stuff the top.
Crochet Amigurumi Tea Cup
Amigurumi wasn’t as fiddly as I thought, though this is quite a big Amigurumi, and it has made me quite keen to try another one, maybe for the upcoming niece/nephew…
Have you tried amigurumi? Any amigurumi hints and tips?
