If you enjoyed my Star Baby pattern, you might like my MINI Star baby!! Stay tuned for the pattern. I plan to share it for free, like the original Star Baby đź’–
Also, I was informed yesterday that someone on @ribblr_it took my Star Baby pattern and is looking for testers. Pattern theft is not cool, y’all! Anyways, I’m now on Ribblr and trying to learn how to navigate it. If you’re on the platform, let’s be friends! 👯‍♀️ My username is @SweetSofties!

The STAR BEAR pattern is finally here!
If you’re in need of an instant gratification project, this one’s it! It takes about 20 minutes to make a Star Bear (with one of my testers finishing theirs in 12 minutes)! The pattern is completely no-sew, and you only need to fasten off once at the very end. It’s addicting to make, and you’ll want to create Star Bears in ALL the colors. I made a few multi-colored variations, including a panda, baby bear, clothed bear, and striped bear, and all variation instructions are in the PDF pattern for you to make yours too!
To make this pattern more fun, I’ve also created printable bear-themed gift tags and adoption certificates! Perfect to gift as party favors or as a craft fair product.
Be sure to swipe to see my amazing testers’ bears!! I just love how they turned out!
Ready to make your own Star Bear? Get the PDF pattern for 25% off to celebrate pattern release at: sweetsofties.myflodesk.com/starbear
(No code needed)
Let Star Bears fill the world!

Okay, here's a super sneaky sneak peek of a new design that my stressed-out ADHD self decided to start and finish last night (to both gain some instant gratification from crochet therapy and avoid my lengthy to-do list)... but I'm too excited to share about it, so please meet my low-sew Goldfinch!!
I'd like to make other colorful, low-sew birdies for this collection. The next time I decide to procrastinate, I will probably be working on a robin.
If there's a particular bird you'd love to see in yarny form, let me know!

Hi friends, coming in with an update! I'm sorry for being quiet lately. My little family went on an overseas trip not too long ago, and I'm still struggling to get back into the routine of things! It's been so busy that I'm just barely getting by with prescheduled projects. I actually have quite a few of my own crochet biz-related tasks and pattern designs in progress that I haven't gotten a chance to even work on yet! I'm hoping that, as I figure out how to better manage my time, I can start picking up the many loose ends patiently waiting for me.
With that said, those loose ends include:
1. Finding testers for two finished patterns (will try and put out a tester call soon!)
2. At least half a dozen WIP patterns that were started wtihin the last two months and should be actively worked on to completion (#adhdproblems)
3. A video tutorial that I filmed but need to edit
4. Three new patterns I need to develop for a kit within the next 4-5 weeks
There's more, but these should be my priority for the near future!
Thank you all so much for being SO patient with me here. I'm sorry I'm so bad at keeping up wtih social media, especially when I feel chronically exhausted and overstimulated from being a mom. I know I have a gajillion messages, comments, etc. to respond to. I could really use more than 24 hours in a day!
For now, here's a pic of my two littles @lena.and.yumi during a peaceful moment of our recent trip to Taiwan. They enjoyed the beach so much and it was amazing to see their delighted smiles and happy squeals when they found seashell treasures, ran up and down the sand hills, and splashed in the refreshingly cool water.
Wishing for more slow days like these, where we get to witness and enjoy the most precious, joyful moments 🥰
