I have a friend who collects pigs, and has a pig-themed kitchen, so I've been planning on making her a little pig for a while now. Her birthday is next month, so I grabbed the free pig pattern off the Lion Brand Yarn website, pulled some yarn from the stash, and got to work.
On Ravelry or behind the cut.
I added another round of sc to the nose, so it would stick out more, and lightly stuffed it before attaching.
One of the managers at work was excited when she found out that I crocheted. She said that she loved the look of crochet, and that she still had the crochet booties that relatives in the Dominican Republic had made for her sons. Then she said that her birthday and just passed, and I said that Christmas was coming up, too, lol. She likes natural shades of greens and browns, so I picked a nice combination (I think, anyway) and a nice pattern from Red Heart. She doesn't actually know that I'm making something for her, so it'll hopefully be a nice surprise.

The green directly underneath the brown has flecks of black and brown in it, but you can't really see them unless you're close.

Forgot about these!
My niece is getting her teeth, so she's chewing on everything. I made her some soft chewtoys out of cotton yarn.

The star is from the chromium star blanket, the flower was in The Crochet Stitch Bible, and the puff was from a couple of different hyperbolic crochet tutorial sites.
I also covered my earbuds in yarn, following this pattern. Someone at work saw my earbuds yesterday and asked if I could do that for her son's headphones!

Hmmm, that earbud cover is a nifty idea. (Bookmarks)

The patterning on the blanket is neat - I always think chevrons have to be, well, wiggly all the way along the width of the blanket, but that's a nice way of doing it (reminds me of an ECG readout ;) ).
