Crochet Jägermeister Bottle

Posted by Alex in Arts & Crafts, Food & Drinks on November 16, 2009 at 5:20 pm

I love this crochet Jägermeister bottle made by crafter Yummy Pancake. You can find more crochet goodness at PlushYou! where Kristin Rask of Schmancy posted an interview with the crocheter (a pharmaceutical project manager by day and uber crafter by night, mind you): Link – via Rue the Day and Craftzine

These are not only unique and cute, but they’d make a great gift for Halloween parties…of course, if you’re like me, it may take until Halloween to actually figure out how finish a few of them.

Cthulhu Ski Mask

Posted by Queuebot in Arts & Crafts on May 6, 2009 at 2:04 pm

LiveJournal blogger Archmage got his wife to crochet him a Cthulhu ski mask for a recent sci-fi-themed costume party.

From the always spiffy Boing Boing:

My buddy Frank’s wife Dianna whipped up a Cthulhu ski mask for him to wear at a recent costume party, and we were all amazed at the sheer blinding awesomeness of it. It even has a mouth-hole so that you can be an Elder God and still kick back a brewski

Toilet Paper Scarf

Posted by Queuebot in Arts & Crafts, Fashion on May 6, 2009 at 2:05 am

You can’t really appreciate the design of this scarf until you see how it looks when it’s rolled up.  The picture is at the link, where there are also pattern directions so you can make your own.

From Craftster.org’s user everkutz, behold the Toilet Paper Scarf:

The roll is plastic needlepoint canvas and I did needlepoint on one side that would become the inside of the roll, and then used a brown yarn to crochet a “sheet” that covered the outside of the roll.

I think 18 “sheets” make up this scarf. It loosely wraps around her neck and then both ends hang at her waist.

Hellboy-Sackboy Hybrid

Posted by Queuebot in Arts & Crafts, Movies & SciFi on February 12, 2009 at 5:58 pm

From his sawed-off demon horns and ever-present cigar to his massive stone hand, this creature is Hellboy. But those big button eyes, oversized head, crocheted body and zippered torso, surely that’s Sackboy from LittleBigPlanet?! 

Credit for this crocheted mashup goes to Caustic Muse, who designed it, based in part on an Etsy pattern.  Say hello to HellSackBoy!  He’s adorable and terrifying.

How To Crochet Master Shake

Posted by Stacy in Arts & Crafts on January 30, 2009 at 6:47 pm

My crocheting skills are pretty minimal (as are my knitting skills, and pretty much all of my crafting skills), but I’m tempted to give Master Shake (he’s from Adult Swim’s Aqua Teen Hunger Force) a shot anyway. I think he would look smashing sitting on my desk at work. Great, now I’m going to have the ATHF song stuck in my head for the rest of the day.

Crochet Coral Reef

Posted by Jill Harness in Arts & Crafts, Everything Else, Travel & Places on January 13, 2009 at 10:42 pm

This crochet coral reef is amazing. It’s actually an attempted replica of the Great Barrier Reef. The variety of textures and colors is as full as those in the reef itself. It took years to make, which can be easily recognized just by the look of it.

“Vast in scale, collective in construction, exquisitely detailed, the Crochet Reef is an unprecedented, hybridic, handicraft invocation of a natural wonder that has become, in itself, a new kind of wonder spawned from tens of thousands of hours of labor.”

If you have small children hooked on the TV show Yo Gabba Gabba! you’ll recognize this crocheted beanie hat right away. I don’t know why Yo Gabba Gabba! is so popular with kids – the show is non-sensical, but with a very catchy tune.

It’s the Plex robot beanie hat, by Etsy seller UrbanPrincess: Link – via Yokiddo

Food You Can't Actually Eat

Posted by Stacy in Food & Drinks on December 21, 2007 at 1:10 pm

It’s always this time of year when my crafty side kicks into high gear.  I think it’s a combination of me thinking that I need to make a homemade Christmas gift for everyone I know and the fact that it’s cold outside so I have a lot more free time to putter around.  At any rate, this means that I log a lot of hours looking for new projects, especially on Craftster.org.  In doing so, I’ve noticed a lot of fake food.  Some of it seems to have a purpose (pin cushions that look like little cakes) and some of it… well, it’s just fun.  

Olive Loaf shawl

What you’re probably asking yourself right now is, “Is that an crocheted shawl that looks like olive loaf?” and the answer is yes.  Yes it is.  Stay tuned for more of my favorite food that you can’t eat.  To see more of Lady Linoleum’s insanely cool crochet, check out monstercrochet.blogspot.com.
