Hmm??? Still a bit leary on the fins. (Here's the first iteration using a plastic bag for the fins).
Logically, the furriness shouldn't be an issue and only minutely add to their hairball formation...but, it still makes me feel a bit uneasy.
Eh, I don't have any old clothes, nor any ribbon large enough on hand...so just used what I could find that'd be different for the time being. Pppppp!
Meh, once I figure out something for the fins that I feel comfortable with then I can finalize the patterns (anomalocaris, goldfish, ammonite, and a squid).
That is fucking amazing! And I love the idea of more cambrian era cat/dog toys, a potentially untapped market I think
I've had ideas for cambrian knits for a looooong time, heh. Bad marriage, getting cussed out by a son for knitting, and chronic pains have made thinking loads of fun, yeesh, but I have made enough to know it's very much possible.
3 sizes of trilobites (and, unfortunately the only pattern I was able to finish and publish, but I do need to record a video on attaching the heads).
Ammonite (Almost had it finished oh so long ago. Luckily, I do remember the important parts of making it).
Also, I've had halucigenia and other Xenusiids in mind, crinoids, tullymonstrum, and opabinia as well. I did have an idea for writing a larger anomalocaris, but it turns out someone was ahead of me, hah.
Unfortunately, it'll be a miracle if I can ever finish any of them...My deltoid and bicep can hurt immensely with the small movements while knitting.
You've got enough ideas to make a knitted Cambrian 'Under the Sea Kingdom,' the crinoids and hallucigenia would be cool to see, along with a few trilobites. Chronic pain is no fun, and I hope you can find another outlet for your creativity ๐
