Chardonnay's mythical cousin: Chablis the Unicorn!

After a period of harassment from children of friends, family and fans, I would like to introduce Chablis the Unicorn. 



This is a simple mod to Chardonnay the Pony- so any of you who have the book can add her to your TO DO lists. 



I have used: 

Cream for the body and head (approx 35g)
Silver hooves swapping to cream for remainder of legs (15g)
Silver mane and tail which can be made a bit longer if desired (approx 10g)



Next. Look up Douglas the Highland Bull and crochet one of his horns but working your dc sts into the back loops only.  This will give you a ridged textured fabric surface which I think befits a magical unicorn horn. I worked the horn in a tiny scrap of oatmeal. 



Enjoy!

Jurassic fever has swept the Studio!

It was only really a letter of time before all the current dinosaur mania seeped through. While in my recent holiday I crocheted a triceratops, brontosaurus, pterodactyl, stegosaurus and t-rex. 

Meet the new #edsdinos crew: 

Victoria the Triceratops 



Stanley the Stegosaurus 


Gregory the T-Rex


Mary the Brontosaurus 


Catherine the Pterodactyl 


Kits (£18) are now available to buy and there's also a special dinosaur bundle to get your hands on an exclusive bonus Anthony the Ankylosaurs pattern.
