Made it up this week! I am not an experienced pattern maker, but i still think he turned out pretty well! I wouldn't rec this for a first project, but if you've done some crochet before then help yourself.
What You'll Need
Red Yarn
White Yarn
Blue Yarn
Grey Yarn
(Optional) 2 Sizes Crochet Hooks - I used 3.0mm and 2.5mm, but if you only have 1, I rec 3.0mm
Tapestry needle
Terms
CH-chain stitch
SL-slip stitch
MC-magic circle
SC-single crochet
INC-do two single crochet in one stitch
DEC-do one single crochet over two stitches

That Thing On Top Of The Backpack
BLUE yarn, and, if you have it, the smaller crochet hook
CH 5
Turn, SC 4
Swap WHITE yarn
SC 4, SL 1, turn
SC 4, SL 1, turn
SC 4, SL 1, turn
Tie off, leave tail
For the winglets: SL 4 and sew on
At this point, I recommend sewing the 2 main backpack parts together using the tail. The blue window should be just the row underneath the white stripe on the backpack
Wings (x2)
WHITE yarn
MC 5
INC, SC 4
INC, SC 5
INC, SC 6
INC, SC 7
INC, SC 8, leaving tail
Detailing on wings: CH 18-20, however long you need to cover the shorter edge of the wings. Sew together, hide tail.
The wings should sit in the crevice between the body of the plushie and the backpack. You can go ahead and sew them together at this part. I recommend sewing one side of the circle at the base of a wing to the backpack first, repeat with the other. Then, you can sew the other side of the circle onto the body. For additional security, you can also use the tail of the red backpack to secure it better to the shuttle body. We're almost done!
Thrusters (x2)
GREY yarn, smaller crochet hook
MC 6
SC 6, leave tail
Sew onto back of shuttle
Cockpit window
BLUE yarn
MC 5 (do not complete the circle)
Sew onto nose of shuttle
And that's all! thanks for staying with me! Id like to try to make more transformers in crochet sometime, so we'll see how this pans out. In true third party transformers plausible deniability fashion, I think that I will call this Sundry's Crochet Transformers SCT-01 Sky Marshmallow, hahaha.
Putting this up for a pal! Technically, i finished this before my Skyfire crochet pattern, but I'm honestly still not 100% satisfied with the tail fins. regardless, they're still pretty dang cute!
What You’ll Need
At least 3 colors of yarn, two for body and one for cockpit. As you can see from the pic above, you can be pretty flexible with it.

For the wing stripes it really depends on how tight you do ur chain stitches. Generally it takes me more than 20, but results may vary.
Small Tail Fin (x2)
MC 6, do not join with first stitch
Large Tail Fin (x2)
MC 5, CH 2
Turn (do not close) 2 DC in first stitch, H2C 2, SC 2, SL
Cockpit
CH 5
Turn, skip first stitch, SC 3, 3SC in end stitch, SC 3, 3SC
When stitching everything together, I like to do it in this order: Wing Decoration onto wings, wings onto body, Large tailfin onto body, Small tailfin onto body, then cockpit.
oh i love you fucked up mentor-mentee dynamics i love you dynamics that aren't quite friendship or family or romantic but some other thing that's like "you taught me how to be everything i know and i am grateful to you and i would die for you but also i resent you so much i love you i hate you how could you disappoint me like this i will spend my entire life wishing that i could love you but i will always hate you a little for how you made me feel--even if it made me stronger"
i’m obsessed with the mum from ponyo. driving single lane on a cliff edge? drift those turns in your nissan cube. husband has to work an extra shift? tell him to fuck off in morse code. pet fish turned into a child on your driveway? adopt her. town drowned in a tsunami? leave your 5 year old in charge, he’s the man of the house now
bit of a delay in posting it oops but lmao whatever
hello, if you're coming to this post at a later date and you're wondering what the fuck something specific means, i explained what most things should be just here if you're confused :]
