Look at that! Do you see that? I made that BY MYSELF.
I'M SO AWESOME.
Allow me to explain. I've been making a lot of stuffed animals for a lot of people lately. You know, you make one stuffed animal in pride colors, and suddenly everyone else wants a stuffed animal in pride colors. Well, anyways, for every stuffed animal that I made, there was a pattern that I made it from. I've never dared to attempt my own amigurumi pattern. I left that stuff to the pros.
That is, until one of the aforementioned people requested that I make them a dolphin. I looked for a dolphin pattern, and I didn't find one that pleased me. Whatever was I to do? "Weeeeellll," I thought, "I could try and make my own." That thought scared me. A dolphin looked so hard. The nose? And the curved body? Fins? I was rather hesitant, to say the least. But, whether I was up to it or not, this lady wanted a stuffed dolphin. So I gave it a shot, trying some weird shaping techniques and seeing how they turned out.
The results far exceeded my expectations. Look at the shape of that nose! And the curve! The decreasing of the tail end! And the tail fin!
I AM SO AWESOME.
Anyways, I'm very pleased to present to you my very first, 100% original amigurumi pattern. A dolphin.
A DOLPHIN.
