Project #3

emily — Sun, 06 Jan 2008 17:21:19 +0000

I made my first amigurumi from あみぐるみでゆるり by Sachiyo Fukao, ISBN9784056048803. My friend Keith lives in Japan now, and brought back this book for me for Xmas. It’s awesome.

Details are on my Ravelry page. I can’t read Japanese, so I had to improvise on just about … everything. What kind of yarn to use, what size hook, how to close it up, etc. He looks more like an octopus than a squid, but he’s still way cute.

Project #2 of 33

Here is an amigurumi bear from a pattern in Kyuuto! Japanese Crafts: Amigurumi:

I like to use knitting and crocheting to procrastinate the completion of other tasks. Like writing reviews or doing editing.

33 Projects in 2008

Why 33? It seemed like a good number. It’s also a Scrubs reference … if you can name where that number is from on Scrubs I’ll give you a cookie!

Here is project #1:

More details can be found on Ravelry.

Here’s to a productive 2008!

This is a big deal seeing as I work for a church and have to stay near school for Xmas Eve/Day. But today! Mr. UPS Delivery Man brought me this!

And now I shall rejoice and make many amigurumi.

And Happy Xmas, kiddos!

Grandpa & Sue sent me a $50 gift card to Joann Fabrics for Xmas. So. Here is one thing I got. Isn’t he cute? I think I’ll name him Sampson.

I kinda winged this one.

And that is Charles, the kitty I adopted last month. He loves sleeping under the tree. What a cutie.
