Vampire Cupcakes

Not crochet, these are real baked cupcakes.

I made these about a year ago. Yes, I'm resorting to using old projects.
I can't remember where I saw them first, or where I got the recipe, sorry. But Google gives plenty of results if you want to try.

This was my first time trying cream cheese frosting, and I have to say I didn't like it at all... It tasted so greasy. So I haven't tried to make them again.
I wonder if these would work out with whipped cream, which is more commonly used on cakes and such in Finland. I like whipped cream! It might slide off, though.
At least, they look pretty cool, I think.

Amigurumi Pear

I still can't believe I haven't posted this. Maybe I just can't find it in my archives? You see, I made this last summer as can be seen in the sunny picture. I meant to post this then, but apparently forgot... Well, here it is!

It's made following the excellent pattern by Crochetroo. She has a lot of free patterns on her site. I've made her fan bookmark too.

Happy New Year!

I'm determined to update more this year, but since I'm really busy with uni and work, there might be more links to patterns of others and fewer new patterns of my own. I'll be still working on new patterns, but on a bit slower pace. I hope you stop by nonetheless!
