CeeCee’s Menagerie Etsy Shop Mini
Just listed some new pre-teen and adult size skater beanies. I’ve been making those up like mad just for something to do while waiting for my next shipment of lessons to come in the mail for the classes I’m taking via internet / mail. I have all of these as well as some others listed in my Etsy shop. The photo’s should link to my shop’s page.

Cephalopod Amigurumi
These are my newest listing in my Etsy store. Crochet cephalopods. I made one squid and two octopi so far and i’m working on a small jellyfish. I didn’t use any patterns. I looked at some photo’s of a lot of different finished crochet toys on a lot of other websites as well as photo’s of real octopus and squids. Apparently octopi look pretty much the same but squid come if several different types. I think they’re pretty cute.
Crochet Cloche Hats
After much trial and error I have finally made some cloche hats. I love the flapper styles and I love to crochet so this is what I came up with. I’m still searching for a pattern to make a fabric cloche or bell hat with, but in the meantime I have a huge stash of yarns to play with.
Both of these hats can be found hereCeeCee’s Menagerie.
Kitties!
The cat photo’s in this blog are sooo cute. I want a cat now. But I have five dogs so thats probably out of the question. Visit this adorable blog for a dose of funny, cute, adorable all at the same time.
Sweet Dream Bean Baby Toys
Sweet Dream Beans are soft crocheted toys with sweet faces and bean shaped bodies. They have big soulful eyes and a soft rattle sound when you shake them.
Give a child a dream bean and plant some sweet dreams.
A unique and thoughtful one of a kind gift.
The shank of the eyes is run not just thru the crochet part but also thru cotton fabric to prevent pulling through the yarn.
The fabric applique is a heat transfer image on white cotton with the edges hand turned and stitched then stitched to the body.
The ends of the ribbon are fused and the knot is fused in place so no frayed ends or untying.
The rattle inside is made of several small jingle bells that are put into a small cotton bag which is then stitched shut so no loose parts unless by some chance the doll was taken completely apart.
These little dolls can be machine washed and dryed, slip them into an old sock or tie them up in a pillowcase to keep from snagging on other clothing items.
Stuffed with new poly fiber fill and made with all new yarns.
You can view the listings for these at CeeCee’s Menagerie.
Hand Crochet Chokers / Necklace
As my crochet skills get better I’m trying more difficult projects. This week I’m making some crochet chokers. Some of them have a very gothic feel. Some are all nature and earth tones, and some are cutesy in pink. These have been SO much fun to design and make. I normally wouldn’t wear “big” jewelry but I think I might have to make an exception for one or two of these.
You can see the rest of them here.
Goddess Art on Cafepress
I’m always putting together some sort of artwork. This week I took a couple of my Goddess paintings and put them on CafePress. So now they’re on Tshirts, mugs and all sorts of things. They look pretty cool. They’re up for sale to the public this way, of course my earnings are miniscule. I’m sure Cafepress is making a killing off of other folks artwork. But its a way to get my name out there and let people see what I can do.Here’s a link to my Squidoo Lens with my Goddess Art on it along with some Links to other nice artwork and artists.
