- Free crochet patterns Frankenstein’s Monster! Rawr! This pattern produces an adorably frightening little Frankenstein monster that you can make with medium or bulky yarn. The monster has lots of customizable features, from his too-short sleeves to the scars on his face. This is an intermediate pattern, requiring approximately 2 dozen color changes in the head – but don’t let that scare you! According to my tester, it was “totally worth it!” You can download the PDF right here: Frankenstein Pattern from wonderstrange Eye Heart Potholders This pattern uses t-shirt yarn, tutorial right here if you need it! You could also use worsted-weight yarn and make ornaments or thread/floss to make earrings should you so desire! This pattern assumes you know how to work in joined rounds and how to do color changes! Click here to download the PDF: Eye Heart Potholders

HI! Welcome to the sporadically updated Braindump!

This week I’m diving fingers first into the holiday season with an antler tutorial. I use them for monsters, but you can use them for whatever the hell makes you happy. WOO HAPPY!

All you need for this tutorial is wire and a wire cutter. I use 16-gauge and 24-gauge copper wire since copper is flexible. And pretty. 😉

Now go make yourself bleed!

xo!!

Sarah wants to know how everything works. She also has a short attention span and is addicted to coffee. Those two things are probably not mutually exclusive.

Hee hee. Fantastically adorable little antlered monster. He knows things, you can tell. And yet, he retains his positive outlook in a manner only the coolest, calmest and most excellent antlered beasts can do. 😀
