In case you missed my post from Friday, I released a new pattern – Kawaii Music Box, or as some people call it, Kawaii Carousel! 🎠✨ It’s another fast-to-crochet project joining my four other Kawaii designs! 😍

This has been such a fun project to work on, and for me, it’s an amazing way to start a year full of new creations! Meanwhile, I’m working on a much bigger project – one that will take some time to finish, but I can already say it’s going to be something very unusual! 🥰

🎉 [NEW PATTERN RELEASE] 🎉

Please welcome the Kawaii Music Box – the most colorful character in my Kawaii collection! 🌈✨ Don't forget to turn on the sound! 🔈🎶

It’s been a long time since I last updated my AradiyaToys Kawaii collection, and as I mentioned last autumn, I had something very special and incredibly colorful planned for this year. And here it is – the Kawaii Music Box (or Kawaii Carousel)! 🎠💖 It has a fascinating story about how it made its way into the Kawaii collection, but I’ll share that with you in one of my next posts! Until then, I hope you enjoy creating your own Kawaii Music Box! 🎉✨

Just like the other toys in my AradiyaToys Kawaii collection, this project is small and enjoyable, perfect for completing in just a few hours with your favorite yarn colors on a cozy Friday evening. I had so much fun making it, and I hope you will too! 🥰

The pattern is already available in English, German, Spanish, Portuguese, Italian, and Dutch here -> https://etsy.me/3Eqvk7T 🤗💕

This crochet pattern has been tested, proofread and translated by incredibly amazing, talented and very responsible girls: Celine, MJ, Clarissa, Sabrina, Roberta, Sarah and Liubov! Thank you very much, dear friends! You all are wonderful! 💛💙

NEW pattern coming TOMORROW! 🎉🤗

Last year was amazing for my Mini Kingdom 👑 collection, and if everything goes well, this year will be even more special! 🥰 I’m working on some really cool things that I’m already excited to share with you later this year! Plus, I have other collections that are about to be updated! 😍

What are your thoughts on interactive crochet toys? For example, you can place a Pirate on a Majestic Ship or swap Minis’ hats and hair to change their look! 😊 Do you think this makes playtime more fun, or does it create more mess when children play with toys like these? 🙈

Happy New Year, dear friends! 🎄🎅🏼🤗

It has been another absolutely amazing year for the crocheting community! 🥰 We’ve seen so many incredible designs, and they just keep getting better and better every year – great news for all of us!

As for me, this year has been one of the most challenging I’ve ever faced. Despite that, I managed to add three new locations to my Mini Kingdom collection: Secret Garden, Lighthouse Island, and Midnight Swamp. I also released a new doll pattern for Friendy April with her Corgi Timmy and completed the final set of Nativity Minis! That’s just five patterns this year, but it’s the very best I could achieve given my current circumstances.

This year, I also created more videos than ever before, and I’ve truly enjoyed the process! 😍 I’m still figuring out what I love about my videos and what I’d like to improve, but it’s a journey I cherish. Hopefully, I’ll discover even more in the coming year! 😊

Thank you so much for your attention to my work, for all the sweet words, and for the feedback you shared with me this year. It’s these things that keep me going and allow me to keep doing what I really love. I’ve also received so many requests from you, and I’ll do my best to bring some of them to life in the upcoming year! Oh, and yes – I’ll definitely give that yarn you love so much a try. Let’s see how it turns out! ☺️

Above all, I wish you health, motivation, and peace in 2025. See you next year, dear friends! Sending you big hugs! 🤗

Olka 💛💙

Please understand that, given the current working conditions, this is the best I can do.

Around this time in October 2022, I added Friendy Sadie to my collection of Friendies, which was recently updated with Friendy Lesia, the Ukrainian doll! 👧🏻 Unfortunately, I couldn’t reach my goal of making at least three Friendy dolls a year, most likely you know why.

If you’ve been following me since the beginning of my journey, you might remember my crochet pattern for Chomper, which I released around 2014. It was by far the most difficult, yet incredibly fun project, and I still remember it like it was yesterday! 😍 So when the idea of creating a Venus Fly Trap came to mind, it immediately brought me back to the time of Chomper. I really wanted to revisit and rework that spooky but cute character to perfectly fit with my current Mini Kingdom 👑 characters and plants. And here it is – Venus Fly Trap is now a proud character in my latest Midnight Swamp 🧙🏻‍♀️ crochet pattern! 🥰

Thank you so much for your kind words about Midnight Swamp in my previous post! 🤗 I always read every comment, and they truly motivate and inspire me! 💖 This pattern has been a big one, with several characters I’ve wanted to add to the Mini Kingdom for years, and they’ve finally made their way in! 🎉 I hope you have a lot of fun with Midnight Swamp and enjoy all your Halloween 🎃 preparations! 🥰
