Hey there! How are you guys doing? It is November already!
I have been very busy looking after my precious family. I got a new free amigurumi crochet pattern for you again, Woohoo! I am so excited to share this free design!
Let’s meet Emma and Emily. These are the sweetest bear and kitten that I have designed in a long time. I love that they are very easy to crochet but have a beautiful finish.
The crochet used for Emma and Emily is a simple pattern that is a pleasure for both the beginner and the well-seasoned hobbyist.
Emma and Emily are made of an acrylic yarn and there are numerous accessories available for you to personalise these lovely gifts.
They are the perfect surprise for any occasion or just a personal reward for your decision to take crochet as your favourite past time.
