Rincewind Amigurumi
My first (but probably not last) attempt at making a little amigurumi Discworld character. It has been simply eons since I crocheted anything, I had never done amigurumi before and I was working a bit
under the gun, since I planned to give this away as a present. I thought he turned out pretty cute for a first shot at it. Currently working on making a little Twoflower, incorporating what I learned while and after working on Rincewind. The invisible decrease, for example.
The pattern was a variation on the free pattern available from Geek Central Station. In general, I followed the pattern, with a few instances of going off the map and doing my own thing. The wizard hat was a variation on a free pattern found on Lion Brand Yarn's site. Forgive the cruddy photography, but I only had a chance to snap a quick phone picture of Rincewind before he was packed into something less comfy than the
Luggage and shipped off, complete with mystical handy-dandy D20 die in a necklace, ready to present... as a present.
