The size of my backside is distinctly problematic.
I followed the pattern as given with no real indication of how big it would come out, or how big I would need it to be. Now that the head and body are finished and I can fully gauge the size of the bum in comparision to the rest I can be certain that the gluteal region just isn't big enough and I'm going to have to make an extension. The size around the body is fine, it just doesn’t stick out far enough.
But hey, I've never made this character before, it's all very trial and error.
It'll work out fine in the end.
I’m really, really hoping I don’t run out of wool though, I haven’t got a vast quantity remaining and I haven’t made any arms yet.
