Hi,
So, I started this project during the summer and I've finally found the dedication to finish it! This project was going to be for myself, but I know two very special people that will appreciate and love it more. Now presenting... Totoro!
Yes, it's crochet, and I just finished it up, besides the nose. I still need to fire up the glue gun and cut out a little piece of black felt and place it on Totoro's face. He looks cute even without a nose!
I haven't crochet in a really long time so it was kind of awkward handling the crochet hook. When I was chaining for the arm, I actually started doing a long-tail cast on, like I would for knitting! Eeep! Maybe I should practice my crocheting skills every once and a while, so I don't forget.
I made this Totoro originally for myself, but there are two other people who I think would cherish it longer then I will: My cousins, Millie and Cora. They are 5 years old and 7 years old. How cute!
Oh! And the Design it! December challenge has begun! I've been playing around with different techniques lately, and I'm planning on designing a crochet toy. I can't hint too much about it, but I will tell you that it is a bird. ;) Stay tuned for more hints!
Well, I better start my math homework! My math teacher decided that the class "wasn't behaving" so he gave us a lot of HW. :P
