day 8 :: 2009 craft books


2009 craft books :: Amigurumi Knits: patterns for 20 cute mini knits by Hansi Singh


so far from this book i have knitted 3 items... a stuffed tomato...


a stuffed garlic...


& a stuffed octopus ! (warning: this is not a beginner pattern, it is a intermediate/advanced pattern)


my second son's favorite animal is the octopus, so i was thrilled to find this octopus knitting pattern ! his favorite colors are yellow & red, so it was very easy to pick out the yarn colors. there are pipe cleaners in all 8 legs, so there is fun to be had bending them ! i already have plans for knitting another octopus...

see you tomorrow for day 9 !
