ive been crocheting for years, but just in a double-stich-scarves-maybe-with-stripes kinda way. ive never followed a pattern, read a pattern or attempted anything fancier than a granny square.
the other day i found a pattern book at the bins (yay bins!) and actually attempted to make one of the cute little plush animals on the cover.
after tackling the abbreviations and screwing up once or twice, i came up with a recognizable, if a little funny looking, duck:
i gave him to my roommate, who name him oscar. oscar the duck.
i think he looks downright dapper in his little braidy necktie, not without a sense of humor…
last night, still buzzing on my newfound skill (“skill”), i made a skunk. a purple skunk:
a friend of mine named her dave.
tonight i made the cutest little bunny…
i know, she kinda looks like a puppy…
(sorry about the fuzzy picture…still getting used to my camera)
see! fluffy little tail! definatly a bunny rabbit…
GROUP SHOT 😉
i found the pattern for the bunny on a fabulous blog:
http://stormyzcrochet.weebly.com/snuggle-bunny.html
she’s got tons of super cute patterns, including some free ones.
im dying to try one of the patterns in her store- the baby dragon- once i get to the craft store for some eyes and polyfill (ive been stuffing them with fluffy yarn scraps so far…it works, but its not as squishy as id like…)
lov-it!
i want a doxy with the same ears as your bunny!
