Back in 2014, I crocheted a jumbo size amigurumi chicken for my husband that was inspired by Alton Brown’s “fry some more” paper mache chicken from Good Eats. I also crocheted a medium version, a slightly improved medium version, and a small version. I’ve finally decided to share the jumbo and medium size patterns here on the blog (the small version is part of a collection that I do not plan to share at this time). This post covers the jumbo size chicken. If you’d like to see the medium size chicken pattern, please see this post.

This is a story about an amigurumi pineapple that started over 2 years ago.

Apparently my crochet life has a unicorn theme going on - but this time it’s with a twist. My most recent creation is a donkey unicorn aka donkicorn. It’s kind of a joke for my team at work since we’re currently evaluating wants and needs for a tool that needs to be replaced. That project somehow acquired the code name Project Data Donkey and that morphed into donkicorn. Me being me, I decided we needed an actual donkicorn and got straight to work looking for a pattern on Ravelry to work one up.

Last Thanksgiving-ish my best friend from home asked for a crocheted unicorn for her daughter, Paisley. I had big plans of finding a cute pattern that I could work up quickly in order to get it shipped off to her for Christmas. Unfortunately, work/life/laziness got in the way. Random pieces of unicorn ended up sitting in a bin from just before Christmas up until I returned from our Maui trip and was feeling crafty again. Read on to see the finished product!

It’s no secret that my Limemates are my work family - they are seriously the best. That’s why I’m always so sad when they move on to other opportunities. Last week I lost one of my biggest supporters/encouragers, RW, to grad school, so I decided to channel the sadness into something positive - a Limey.
