#izzy crochets stuff

The final gift was for our conductor, whose favourite animal is a capybara. If I were going to make this again I would modify some of the stitch counts, especially in the backpack and the placement of the arms, but the end result is very cute.

I've never made amigurumi the way this pattern is made up, and it's definitely not a beginner pattern. Still not sure how I feel about it.

Made from this pattern:

Continuing on the theme of staff gifts, I made this little guy for our accompanist. It's a little hedgehog and is no-sew, although there are quite a lot of colour changes between the brown and the cream.

I like how the ears were made using front loops on the first row and then crocheting into the back loops on the second row, it made such a great effect without having to have separate pieces.

Made using this pattern:
