A Minecraft Creeper!
I finished it at last! Definitely a challenging make; the hardest Amigurumi I've made, but I like a challenge.... Although I may not be making another of these any time soon. I am quite happy at the result and my mate who loves Minecraft will hopefully appreciate the effort.
I based the pattern on the free pattern here. I made a few of my own changes whilst following the 'smaller body pattern'. Great explanations and easy to follow it's just the sewing that's the hard part. I also had an issue getting the face right, it dind't turn out perfect but it will do.
I spent ages trying to find a yarn which was a suitable Creeper colour and wasn't ridiculously expensive. In the end I used a yarn that was various colours of green and blue having to cut the blue out and joining the green part back on to carry on crocheting. This made making the Creeper a bit more difficult but determination is key! I used James C Brett Woodlander DK yarn and a 3.5mm crochet hook. I'm going to use the blue parts of this yarn to make crochet squares for Knit A Square Charity so nothing goes to waste.
