My crochet adventures continue!! The past few nights I have been working on Pikachu beanies for the kids. It seems strange to be making beanies when it is 110 degrees outside but inspiration knows no temperature. I used the same beanie pattern as I did with the gumba. For the ears I used the magic circle and a 3.75mm hook. I started with four double crochet in the circle and increased until desired size. This gave his ears a nice point. The eyes and cheeks were all magic circle. Cheeks are 15 double crochet, eyes were 20 and the white in the eyes were five. I also stuffed his ears with filling from an old pillow (I washed the stuffing first).
Not to shabby.
