Ballerina Mouse

This is the oh so cute Ballerina Mouse that I got on Ravelry.com. Its a Christmas present for my daughter. I realize that Its not even September and the holiday season is 4 months away but I was pretty sure this project would take me forever so I started early. It turned out SO cute and I'm crazy about how darling it is...
 
Here's the yarn I used.

Monkey Girl...

This adorable toy was found on Ravelry.com.... I love this website!! If you aren't a member and you love to crochet, knit or are just starting to learn, GO and sign up!! Its helped me on my crochet journey. So anyway, As you can see, there are two examples... this monkey was really great practice for me. It has very simple shapes, not too many pieces and the pattern is really well written with a lot of pictures. The ONLY difficulty for me was getting the face perfect. I had to redo the faces at least once on each. But I LOVE how they came out in the end. The Purple one I gave to my little niece for her 2nd birthday... Now what to do with the yellow one. :)
