That's A Very Nice Everything You've Got There...
Thanks for your comment yesterday Sam... I was starting to feeling like the only Minecraft Mum... but I can see that your household has been corrupted also!
As you can see, the Creeper is done.
Here He is with his skin on:
The pieces were worked flat in single crochet (US) working through the BACK LOOPS ONLY - which is what gives the ridged effect. All quite simple.
Then the skin was overstitched in place around the foam inserts.
Last of all, a felt face was added:
Resulting in this:
It's killing me, not to be able to embellish this toy any further!
I know that it already looks EXACTLY like it is supposed to... but it just feels TOO - DARN - PLAIN
Anyway, here's a profile shot
And one head on:
And here He is hisssssssssssing
Now - Back to finishing off more gifts
