Baking/Leipomista

Hello,

I wanted to show something different from what I've shared before. We had relatives visiting few days ago and of course we baked a lot off delicious stuff. It's a tradition in our family to bake few big gingerbreads and every year we have a competition and winner gets a gingerbread.
This year they turned out as snowmen.Probably I'm not the best decorater in the world, but I know that this little fellow tasted great!

Terkkuja vaan kaikille,
Tein siskojen kanssa muutama päivä sitten pipareita, kun tuli sukulaisia kylään. Meillä on ollut tapana leipoa jättipipareita arvauskisan palkinnoiksi jo useampana vuonna. Ehkä mä en oo maailman paras koristelemaan pipareita, mutta sen voin kyllä sanoo, että tää pipari maistui mahtavalta. :0)

Kawaii fruits *free pattern*

Snowy greetings for everyone!My internet wasn't working and thus I had nothing to do, but crochet... I wanted to do something quick for my friends and started to crochet. And these little cute fruits were the result. First I thought that maybe I don't need the pattern for later use, but then I decide to write it down. To make these little fellows you need:
DK yarn
Hook size 3.5mm
Stuffing
Felt
Needle

And of course the pattern (Click to get it larger):

Cut a little round piece of felt. Sew it on your fruit and embroider the face. The cord I made is just a chain sticthes and an sc:s attached to the head.

Happy crocheting!

Terve vaan kaikille. Mulla ei netti toiminut viikonloppuna kunnolla joten jäi aikaa virkata ja väsätä kaikkea kivaa. Mietin mitä haluaisin antaa kavereille ja tällaiset pikkupalleroiset syntyivät hetkessä.
