Hey guys! š
How are y'all doin!š·
After my first stall I got some crochet orders. I was super excited to work over them. The girls that ordered stuff had really good taste. They went through Pinterest I guess, and came out with super cute crochet references. I was really nervous at first that I might not be able to make like they would have expected. But keeping this self doubt beside I started to look for the reference videos or patterns.
After surfing a little bit, I found some tutorials that fit for them. I saved them to watch later as I didn't wanna loose them.
So first of all I made this cartoon character, named as "Pikachu". Honestly I never watched these cartoons, I have seen them on different posters and kids stationery etc, but never occurred to me give them a watch.
Here's it's Reference
Materials
I used following materials:
- Crochet Hook
- Tapestry needle
- Yarn ( Yellow š», Black š¤, and a little bit of Pink šø (it's for blush, but you could also use makeup for this purpose)
Process
To begin I crocheted the main body first. Then I made all the accessories including, 2 ears, 2 hands and 2 feet. Hands and feet had the same pattern.
Then came the most difficult task, yess, sewing everything together. Here I attached the ears with the body.
Here the tini tiny hands and feet are attached. One things everyone should be awake of that, the attachment of different parts should be occurred symmetrically, by counting the rows in one hand or any other part is being attached and the other should be attached accordingly. These little details make a huge difference. And same goes for faces. Some people's amigurumis don't turn out to be cute or can't give particular vibes that is being wanted , and it's just because of some off proportions.
Here it is ready to be given. I made it's blush by taking out one ply of pink colour and sewing two stitches beneath the eyes!
It's a whole new vibe outdoors, isn't it?
So how was it? š
Okay that was all foe today's creativity.
See you guys next time.
Take careš·š„°
Bye Bye šš»
