It has begun!
I have officially begun working on Falkor and I’m already pushing my brain 🤣
I knew before I even started that his nose was going to be a bit of a headache, so what better place to start!
Know his nose and mainly nostils were going to give me some grief…Not only did I badly sketch my plan.
I made a “pattern for my pattern” as my mom said when I told her what I did, hahaha.
Instead of blindly crocheting, frogging, and crocheting again. I decided to make little paper cutouts of the shapes I planned on crocheting to make sure that would actually work.
And it did, in fact, WORK! Woohoo!!!
Next was deciding exactly how I wanted to do his nostrils. In the end I did decide to print them!
First attempt didn’t go so well…I printed them way to small…Oops!
But after some trial and error I got the sizing set and printed! Then took literal ages to sew them on.
But I am THRILLED with how his Snoot has turned out!
And for those always curious for how long it takes me to do my thing…I’m trying my best to make sure I time track.
This isn’t perfect, but it’s close. I always forget to start the timer 🤦♀️
I did change the app I use also. What I was using previously has kind of crapped out and I’m now using Yarnly, and no, I’m not paying for the “better” versions. I just need the timer!
Anyways! This is where we are so far…And just by looking at his nose…He’s going to be bigger than planned 🫣 Which when it’s something I’m designing, is how it goes 98% of the time. I have zero sense of size when getting details correct!
