I found this pattern in the February 2015 issue of Crochet World Magazine, under the name of "Chomp Chomp Scarf."

For this project I used a US I 5.5mm hook & Vanna's Choice Lion Brand yarn in Aqua for the eel and Us H 5.0mm hook & Sugar 'n Cream yarn in White for the eyes/mouth. I used a hot glue gun to secure a black button.

Pattern Inspiration: Nephithyrion (I only followed instructions for the structure of the car but did my own thing for the tires, headlights, and windows)

Yarn: Sugar 'n Cream (blue and white), Caron (red and black)

Hook: UD G 4.00mm

I chained 29 sc, slip stitched into the first chain and then made several rows with single crochets until it completely covered the mini pot. Then, I used the hot glue gun to attach the ladybug and flower buttons. Easy and simple!

This was a simple project that I made to hang on my office wall.

Pattern: "Half Lotus Bunting"

I chained 60 on either side of the flags.

This pattern is from Felted Button and I changed a few details to accommodate for the supplies I had available. I used Frog Tree Picoboo Yarn in 8 different colors wit match polka dot buttons. I also spaced out the triangles a bit more on the string.

I adapted this little spring bee from the pattern found on the Yellow, Pink, and Sparkly Blog by adding a tiny stinger.

I used black, yellow, and white yarn...
US E 3.5mm Clover Crochet Hook for the body and wings...
US B 2.25mm Clover Crochet Hook for the stinger...
And I also used fiber fill for stuffing...

She measures a little under 4 inches.
