Happy Thanksgiving! As usual, we hosted the Seattle Transplant Thanksgiving Dinner. Great friends were in attendance to consume the boatload of food we always have followed by board games. Hope everyone enjoyed the holiday!
Read MoreI find so many cute things to crochet on Pinterest, but the one that's highest on my radar is this cat cave. It's made of t-shirt yarn. I looked all over before locating t-shirt yarn at my local Joann's. Unfortunately, the selection is small and they don't have more than 2 rolls that match in color/design and that doesn't seem like enough to finish one nest. In my opinion, the stuff is also fairly expensive at $9.99 per roll.

Many of my former classmates have been selling crocheted hats and baby photo props, so I decided to make an amigurumi to be different. After much thought, I talked to my friend and neighbor, HK, to see if we could collaborate on a doll and dress combo since she has been making adorable little girls' princess dresses. We decided this would be super cute and went with a Snow White theme.
