(P.S. Last week, I got my greedy little hands on a Pris Moon Bun. ♥)

WIP: orphan baby yeti sneak peek

It has sort of an outie.
This is my first brushed piece. Technique from Roman Sock's nifty brushed crochet tutorial.
This is my first custom commissioned piece, for a fellow KoL player; it's an orphan baby yeti.

So so cute.
thefourthrow, maybe a collaboration to make something even more awesome is in order?
I have to say that after researching octopodes for this project, I'm not sure I will go back to eating them. I love pulpo a la plancha, Greektown grilled octopus, and the concept of tako tacos, but I'm so fascinated with these amazing creatures now.
update: I added a few pictures I took before shipping them off, also included my project sheet sketch.

And then I received a package from the person (
I'm going to hold off on posting pictures of what I made until I hear that my recipient has received her package.

I still owe three of you gift items from that gift meme I posted a long time ago. I haven't forgotten about you, just been brewing ideas a little longer than I had planned. I've since added

Got another one in the works, it's gonna be white and pink and also video game related, if that's any clue. Couldn't get myself together to finish entries for the State Fair competition, spent the prior weekend finishing some bear booties for a baby shower present. Now I feel like I have a lot of ideas ready to go. This is a perfect Olympics-watching activity (kinda like the Knitting Olympics).
I've been reading Watership Down for background before I try to run a Bunnies & Burrows game to introduce

Mummy Moon Bun

I absolutely love this mummy bunny. moons_creations is making a monstrous bunny each day as part of a personal 31 Amigurumi for October challenge to celebrate Halloween. Make sure you click throught the entire set. My other favorites are werewolf, pumpkin, ghostly, and Bride of Frankenstein.
Notice how each little creature isn't very complex, and how all of the simple little details make each bunny so precious. This is awesome, inspiring work. =)
Since the month is already half past and I couldn't match the pace anyway, I might try for a 13 monster countdown. Plus that would help me kickstart another project that I've been stalling on.

After many hours, and sore wrists, I finished this monkey present by early afternoon on xmas eve. My nephew liked it and slept with the monkey that night.
I placed a musical button underneath the creme stomach patch. It plays Twinkle Twinkle Little Star. My nephew told my sister that "his tummy sings." =)

I'm happy with this monkey present so far. I'm just kinda winging it, referring to lots of pictures and writing down my pattern as I go.
