This was made using the book "Pokemon Haken" by Sabrina Somers.
There's a rubber coated wire in the tail to allow for bending it any way you'd like. The eye and nose are felt pieces I painfully stitched on (pricked my finger 3 times).
Hope my nephew likes it! We're off to his birthday party.

Missed opportunity to have the dancers have alternating skin colour and add some interesting patterns to the dance.
Tell me more about those retirement benefits.
True, true... Now if you tell them "that thing is 500ft away" they will start counting how many turns it would take them to get there and it may sink in just how far that is.
Full disclosure: I haven't gotten there yet.
I think I would describe what is not in the immediate play area around the players. Only use the battlefield around players, not whatever some mage is doing off in the distance. If they move, so does the battlefield. Draw the relevant features on some sheets of paper and switch them out when necessary, or erase and draw if you are using an erasable battle map mat.
If they split the party up, use theatre of the mind, even when fighting. You can still roll dice, discuss positioning, and describe the action without a 2.65m circular map on the table.
The Power Puff Girls
Not hard, just fiddly for the fluffy bits. But it is explained with a video by the creator of the pattern. All the other stitches are classic single crochet and slip stitch.
That being said I wasn't too happy with how the pattern was written overall. Nothing insurmountable, just not what I am used to. Instead of "(2 SC, INC)x6" it would be "sc in next 2, 2 sc in sc, repeat the whole round" for example. I'm just not used to that writing style and I had to really concentrate to avoid making mistakes.
I actually made this for work if you can believe it. My boss paid for the pattern and yarn. It's for some team building we are doing this week.
Based on the paid pattern below: Finely the Border Collie
Thanks! This is great.
I am all for this, eating insects is done in many cultures and a healthy source of nutrition. We westerners may see it as something intimidating at first, because we so squirmish about bugs, but I am honestly curious about the taste.
That being said, I don't know why we need more nutritious flour. We are not lacking protein in our diets. Even vegans and vegetarians easily hit the minimum protein intake by consuming plant based protein....
This pattern is from a book called "zoomigurumi 3". I adjusted the shell pattern, switching colours between each round, to get this spiral effect.
The book is really nice, well written. I've made a couple of other pattern from it and enjoyed each one!
The copium on this theorie blog post is so endearing.
I remember being very confused and in disbelief when reading the 6th book, but I never thought that the events were a ruse of some kind.
It is almost guaranteed to be injury free. 😄
One of us! One of us!
Here we go with another round of crochet foods for my sister's kids. They got cookies, cakes and treats last winter. They loved those but asked for "healthy food" as well to round out their roleplaying games.
I'm afraid I can't share some of these patterns as they were not free... I can share were I purchased them from tho!
Using colour light green yarn.
Switch to green yarn.
Using brown yarn.
Cut a circle out of cardboard a bit smaller than the kiwi face. Stuff body and add circle of cardboard under the kiwi face while sewing. Sew together using the BLO for the kiwi face and full ST for skin.
I felt I should update you guys after your suggestions and support from my other post.
I was concerned about the finishing of my blanket, it wasn't a regular shape, but a session of carefull (nail biting level stress) steam blocking straightened her out!
Here she is, rectangular and perfect for a nice bed spread. My godchild will get it coming Christmas, wrapped under the tree with a nice bow.
Thanks everybody for your encouragement and support in my first ever blocking adventure! You are very kind people and I appreciate you!
Hello crochet friends!
I'm almost done making blanket, but as I lay it out to admire my work... Horror strikes! It looks like my tension became looser as time passed...
I've never made a blanket before, and have read that blocking is a standard step to even out ones work. But... This looks really bad. The bottom right corner is 10cm longer than the top right.
Will blocking save my work and allow me to shape it into a rectangle?
Hi everyone!
I'm preparing a new monster for a special Halloween themed one-short and would like to check with the community if my evaluation of the CR for this monster seems fair... If anybody has resources to evaluate this, please do share!
The creature: a Pumpkin Beholder.
I haven't found any mexican restaurants in Belgium. Just none. There is a taqueria where I live but it does not scream authentic at all.
As a kid I lived in Thailand and there was an excellent restaurant there with super yummy food - think not sure it was authentic.
Making Mexican food yourself is also tricky as the ingredients (dried chillis) are not easy to find.
