Božićna aplikacija - Christmas car applique

 

Najviše inspiracije dobijem u predbožićno vrijeme, zato što volim izrađivati razne ukrase za jelku. O tome sam već pisala ranijih godina, pa ovdje možete pogledati neke ideje:


https://pletionica.blogspot.com/2019/11/bozicni-ukrasi-crochet-christmas.html


Iako uglavnom pravim viseće ukrase za jelku, evo i jedne prigodne aplikacije, koja se može iskoristiti na razne načine.





 Autić koji prevozi božićni bor svojoj kući, može biti ukras na dječjoj odjeći, torbi, pokrivaču ili jastuku. Mogućnosti su razne, sve je prepušteno vašoj mašti. Umjesto žutog autića, možete upotrijebiti bilo koju drugu omiljenu boju. Zgodna stvar je da ovakvu aplikaciju možete napraviti od ostataka vune ili pamučnog konca koje već imate u kući, i neće vam trebati puno materijala. Koristila sam akrilnu pređu debljine za kukicu br. 4, a još je bolje raditi pamučnim koncem iste debljine. Dužina autića je 12 cm, visina je 9 cm, a Božićno drvce je dugo 13 cm. Koristila sam kukicu br. 4.





 Ovdje donosim foto tutorial kako napraviti ovakvu aplikaciju, pa možda nekom da ideju za napraviti nešto slično. Pattern se može pronaći u mom Etsy shopu, kao i dosta drugih heklanih Božićnih ukrasa.

Morska sirena - Crochet mermaid FREE pattern



Morska sirena  - pola žena, pola riba, lik iz grčke mitologije dosta je omiljena među djecom, kao i ljubiteljima kukičanja. Stoga danas objavljujem besplatni pattern za izraditi lutkicu sirenu. Pattern je na engleskom jeziku, a u nastavku je link na download PDF dokumenta u mom Etsy shopu (za one kojima je draže isprintati pattern). 
https://www.etsy.com/listing/260058179/crochet-mermaid-doll-pattern-amigurumi?ref=shop_home_active_24
PDF file u Etsy shopu nije besplatan, za razliku od ove verzije na blogu. Uživajte u kukičanju sirene, a rado bih pročitala i povratne informacije, te pitanja ukoliko ih ima.
Sirenu možete napraviti od pamučnog konca ili vune, ovisi što vam je ugodnije za rad, a u izradi lutkice koristila sam kukicu od 3mm. Lutkica je visoka oko 20 cm. Uživajte u kukičanju (heklanju).

Crochet donkey - amigurumi bez šivanja



Dva magarčića na fotografijama izgledaju dosta slično, no riječ je o sasvim drugačijoj tehnici izrade. Magarac sa prve fotografije izrađen je prije nekoliko godina, tako da se svi dijelovi naprave posebno, a potom se napune i zašiju iglom. Znam da mnogi ljubitelji kukičanja i amigurumija najviše mrze baš to - trenutak kad kukicu moraju zamijeniti iglom za šivanje. I sama nisam obožavatelj ove faze u izradi amigurumija, pa sam odlučila pojednostaviti cijeli taj proces.



 Ovaj Donkey sa druge fotografije upravo je izašao iz radionice i odlučio pozirati na ovoj stranici. Možda vam se čini da ste ga već vidjeli, ali ne. Potpuno je novi, kao i način izrade, koji će poznavatelji heklanja i amigurumija skužiti. Naime umjesto kukičanja (heklanja) dijelova koji se zatim spajaju iglom, ovaj je Donkey izrađen u jednom komadu. Igla i konac bili su potrebni samo za pričvrstiti uši i njuškicu. Pattern za novog magarca još nisam napisala, ali ću uskoro poraditi na tome. U međuvremenu možete naći pattern za sivog magarčića u mom Etsy shopu:  https://www.etsy.com/listing/210709905/amigurumi-donkey-crochet-pattern-crochet?ref=shop_home_active_9

Amigurumi FOX - FREE crochet pattern


      Na ovom blogu možete pronaći neke besplatne patterne koji su inače objavljeni u mom Etsy shopu Pletionica  https://www.etsy.com/shop/Pletionica  kao PDF file, koji se lako može isprintati. Danas objavljujem crochet pattern za izradu male igračke lisice, također dostupan u Etsy shopu u PDF formatu. Voljela bih čuti vašu reakciju u vezi objave ovih patterna, jer posebno me zanima ima li interesa za uputstva na hrvatskom jeziku. Dosad nisam imala takvih zahtjeva, ali razmišljam o pisanju shema na hrvatskom, pogotovo za kukičane (heklane) igračke i neke druge stvari koje izrađujem, pa me zanima kakva bi bila potražnja na ovom području. Možda objavim i knjigu s amigurumi uputstvima. Koga zanima tema neka mi se slobodno javi u komentarima.
A sad evo obećani FREE crochet pattern, naravno na engleskom, uz Etsy link: https://www.etsy.com/listing/233675794/amigurumi-fox-crochet-pattern-free-owl?ref=shop_home_active_33

Božićni ukrasi - Crochet Christmas ornaments (mini Santa hat FREE pattern)




Nekoliko ideja za blagdane koji nam uskoro dolaze! Nema većeg gušta od ukrašavanja Božićnog bora ukrasima koji ste sami napravili. Naravno, moji su ukrasi od konca i vune, jer se u te materijale najviše kužim, ali mogućnosti su neograničene, ovisno o tehnikama koje su vam bliske. I početnici u kukičanju jednostavno mogu izraditi zgodne privjeske za bor od ostataka vune koji su im pri ruci. 
Osim klasičnih Božićnih ukrasa poput Djeda Mraza i Snješka, možete napraviti bezbroj prigodnih ukrasa poput anđela, čarapica iliti čizmica, zvončića, šeširića, bakinih keksića ili mini Božićnog vijenca. Evo nekoliko mojih ukrasa koji se mogu pronaći i u 
Etsy shopu Pletionica, a tu je i poklon FREE pattern mini Santa Claus hat na engleskom:
