El’Ejin

Dragon El’Ejin is a tiny little dragon and a request from my DGD. She will receive this as a birthday gift this coming weekend.

The pattern is by Anastasia Kirs and can be found on Ravelry.

The pattern called for one strand of embroidery floss. Tried it but found as I tried to separate the strands they broke and it was so hard to work with. I pulled out pearl cotton 8 and used it. It did take some time to make it. I used French knots for the eyes as I didn’t have the tiny safety eyes called for.

2021 Christmas ornaments

For my two daughters I madePrairie Point star by supermomnoca. Posted November 5 2015. She made them bigger using 5 inch squares of fabric and I made mine using 3.5 inch squares.

For the grandchildren I made some knitted ball ornaments for the grandchildren. The pattern is from yarnspirations and it was a simple knit pattern. I did do a couple rows less of each colour having just 6 peaks instead of seven to fit the balls I had. 

Once they were done DH and I both agreed that they looked just too plain. I dug into left over items from pass craft projects that I hung onto just in case and found the gold leaves and red balls. They were the perfect fix. 

I than when and made little bags to hold them. The fabric was left over from a cap I had made for my DGD dress up box a few years ago.

Pattern--Bernat classic Christmas tree ornament.
