hello my lovelies! i went... radio silent again. But!! i am still on my bullshit actually i love to yap about my crochet projects as im doing them so actually you guys are coming with me on my journey to make plushie adult zuko
this is the beginning of the head, before i put down his burn scar. the patten im using is bigger than i'd originally figured but thats ok bc that means more zuko to hug so its whatevs i got plenty of yarn and stuffing, other thing of note, once i planned out the safety eyes i got unnecessarily attached already
made his scar out of felt, freehand cut it out based purely on vibes, and this is my first project using tacky glue as opposed to sewing things down so he got put into "pincushion jail" while I waited to see how the glue adhered down and hoped with my entire heart to not have to use hot glue (me and hot glue have NEVER got along)
the underside of him at this point was VERY dangerous
I let him be on thursday night and had every intention to check on him Friday afternoon before I went into work but i was too invested in my breakfast of pizza so he actually sat for like 36 hours lol but the glue worked!! no hot glue battling for me~
before I get into the stuffing and decreases i wanted to get all the head details done, so tonight I spent about 6 hours on his hair (which i free handed!) and im very happy with it!
all I have left to do to finish up the head is some small embroidery details and then his head will be finished! that's probably the next update i'll add to this, but tomorrow ill be taking a break from him because crocheting for 6 hours straight tends to have consequences lol
