An update on from my last post…

This sweet custom pup has officially made it to his forever home in Australia 🐾🤍

And I’ve now been told by his new little owner that his name is officially… Sausage 🥹

Even sweeter — today, May 8th, has been declared his official birthday 🎂✨

I absolutely love seeing my creations arrive in homes where they’re instantly loved, cuddled, carried around, and included in little tea parties 🧸☕️

From a photo of a very loved real-life pup… to a handmade forever friend. These little updates are the absolute best! 🤍🤍

Happy Birthday, Sausage 🤎

From photo… to stitches 🐾

This gorgeous boy was brought to life in yarn, and I honestly can’t get over how closely he turned out to his real-life inspiration 🥹

Custom made with so much love, and I honestly couldn’t be happier with how he turned out. Those floppy ears, that little face… I’m obsessed 🥹

It’s always a bit special sending a handmade piece off to a new home — especially when it’s heading all the way to Australia 🇦🇺

One of a kind, made just for someone very lucky 🤍

✨ Meet Baby Hugo the Humpback Whale ✨

This sweet boy was a special custom order, made just for a very lucky little human 💙

Super soft, extra snuggly, and full of ocean magic… Hugo is the kind of keepsake that’s made to be loved for years to come.

There’s something really special about creating custom pieces like this — knowing they’re heading off to a home where they’ll be cuddled, cherished, and part of someone’s story 🫶

I might have been a little quiet lately… but behind the scenes, the hooks have still been working their magic 🧶✨

I made this with my own two hands 🥹🧶
This gorgeous Charlie Cow has made his journey to his forever home in New Plymouth 🙂

Every stitch tells a little story — the trial runs, the frogging, the “ahh YES that’s it” moment. Crochet teaches patience and rewards persistence in the best way.

Do you crochet to relax or to challenge yourself?
What’s a project you’re extra proud of lately?
Are you a pattern follower or a freestyle kind of maker?

🌈🦒 Meet this very special rainbow giraffe 🦒🌈

I realised I never actually shared this cutie… and honestly, that feel criminal 😅

This sweet giraffe was a custom request, and I was so honoured to bring her to life. Soft, snuggly, and rainbow she’s one of those makes that just feels extra special from the first stitch to the last.

Custom pieces like this are a reminder of why I love what I do so much. Someone trusted me with their idea, and I got to turn it into something tangible, cuddly, and completely one-of-a-kind.

Would you go classic colours or rainbow magic if you were designing your own plush?

My latest makes! Piglet!!

I’ve been so excited to finally make him and honestly… I’m a bit in love. He’s got that shy little Piglet energy, floppy ears, and the squishiest belly.

He’s based on a snuggler-style pattern (not super popular here in NZ), by .dk but I added a bit of extra stuffing to his belly because I wanted him extra cuddly — and it was 100% the right call.

One of those projects that just makes your heart happy 🫶

Okay… THIS is my masterpiece 💙

I’ve loved Winnie the Pooh since I was little, and Eeyore has always been my character — so making myself a giant plush version has been a long-time dream.

And honestly? I am SO proud of how he turned out.

He’s big.
He’s soft.
He’s got the floppiest ears.
AND his tail pops on and off because I couldn’t not do that 🥹💙

This one was made purely for the love of crochet and the joy of finally bringing a childhood favourite to life. He’s staying with me — a forever keep — but wow, this project reminded me just how much I love pushing my skills and going all in on a make.

Sometimes you don’t create to sell… you create because your heart tells you to.

And this one? My heart is very full 🧶✨

Quick plug for my friend Sharni because this little swinging bee lives in my car and my kids constantly fight over who gets to hold it 🫠🐝

She makes the cutest swinging creations — bees, frogs, capybaras, chickens and more — and they’re always hot sellers for a reason.

If you spot her at a market, don’t sleep on them… they disappear fast 💛

Group Photo Op!

They’ve claimed the sunny spot, had a team meeting, and decided they’re ready for new homes.

Soft, squishy, and made with love — each octo is individually handmade, making every cuddle buddy a little bit different.

Handmade in Tauranga, with sunshine, patience, and a lot of yarn 🧶

Drop a 💜 if you’re team Anchor octopus..

Many of the pieces you’ll see posted here are designs I revisit and remake over time 🧶

Because everything is handmade, each piece will always have its own little differences — even when it’s based on the same design.

If you spot something from a past post and fall in love with it, you’re very welcome to reach out and ask if it’s something I may be able to remake for you 🤍

Availability is always subject to time and yarn on hand, but I’m happy to have a chat and let you know what’s possible 💌
