Description Here's my little Ampharos! I crocheted him especially for the Pokemon of the Month of February for this group

He's actually super long... over a foot (not including the tail)! To be honest, I was never really a fan of Ampharos, they kinda look like mutated kangaroos...but I took the over all design and tried to make it cute XD I'm pretty happy with how he turned out...and I'm starting to like Ampharos a bit more now ^.^ aaaand it gave me a chance to try crocheting the tail, body, and head as one continuous round.

YES that's right. The tail and head are actually not sewn to the body, they're a continuous crocheting round. Now the legs and things are sewn on... but still. He took like 13-14 hours to make.


WHO SHOULD I MAKE NEXT?

Yes, most of my plushies are actually commissions I've done in the past.
Thank you ^_^
Any plushies I still have would be in my shop ([link] ).

Right now my commissions are closed because the new semester for school starts Wednesday o___o...but it really all depends on material costs at the time.

Is there like... any way possible of blackmailing you to acquire the secret recipe pattern of this plush? .__.

TheHarley In reply to Fluttur [2011-04-24 12:48:26 +0000 UTC]

lol blackmailing... I actually don't have the pattern for this plush. It's honestly hit or miss whether I write down the pattern as I go for any of my plushies =/ I'll see if I do have it in any of my notebooks, but I don't remember actually writing it down.

I'd like to organize my patterns anyway, so I plan on looking ^.^ ...I'm actually planning on selling this one along with quite a few of my other creations I just have to figure out how I'm going to do it exactly.

ORLY that shall please me greatly, well, if you would ship to New Zealand that is.. Considering notmanypeopledo .__. Luckily Sara does -shiftyeyes- xD! What do you need to figure out anyways? Paypal or shipping?

Yeahhhh... spring cleaning isn't fun, but I like the resulting "knowing where things are" part XD
Of course I would ship to New Zealand ^.^ --I'll ship anywhere on Earth. No punishment for you just because you live in a different country than me. ...Well, I've had a few people inquire about it, but I didn't plan on selling it at first...but now I'm in need of money lol. If you are serious about buying it within the next few days, then I'd gladly sell it to you. He's relatively big (in comparison to other crocheted amigurumi I've seen/made) about 18 inches (46cm) from the tip of his nose to the end of his tail. (I'll send you a note with details about payment and shipping)

I haven't even actually finished a crochet plush to date yet either, I have half done bodies. I hate doing arms and legs, they never turn out how I want them ;__; I admire the people that can finish them without raging XDD!

TheHarley In reply to Fluttur [2011-04-25 12:57:14 +0000 UTC]

it took me a while to figure out how to do the arms and legs right... I'm working on a simple pattern for all the Eevee Evolutions laying down... they're coming out to be about the length of my hand ^^... so if you want to attempt to finish one, I think this might be the one for you! ---I'll let you know when I finish up the pattern, right now I'm almost done with Umbreon. Next will be Espeon. It'll be the first pattern I actually "publish" anywhere =O

Espeon and Umbreon is basically me and my friend! It's what I commissioned Sara for and so we're gonna be Espeon and Umbreon buddies xD! (First time I've done anything like this in hopes I didn't become too weird hahah).

srslythough I can't wait until you do the patterns, I'll definitely be trying to when you publish! FFFF I'm way super happy and excited over today heehee!

hehehe my sister and I are Espeon/Umbreon addicts... I collect Umbreon stuff and she collects Espeon. It's kinda funny because she's all dark and mysterious and I'm more of a talkative, dances around like a crazy person in Walmart, kind of person. I kinda want to make an Umbreon hoodie >.>

I'll let you know as soon as I get them up and finished ^.^ --- I'll be posting the patterns on my LiveJournal most likely (but I'll have links in the deviations once I put them up) should be in the next week or so!

SRS? What is it about them that they just seem to... click together!? D< LOL! But yeah, that is strange! I'm more the Espeon kinda gal (And it's moreso feline, I'm a total feline fanatic XD) and my friend is kinda more yeah... Quiet and mysterious, unless she's talking to me xD
Crochet an Umbreon hoodie orrr...!? O__O LOL!!

FFF NEXT WEEK OR SO!? /excitteeeddddd!! Yeah I don't go on LJ at all D: So I'll be waiting for the deviation with the link, of course!! >DDD tytytytyyyyyy

I know! They're like day and night, or perhaps yin and yang? ...see I love big cats, but house cats get on my nerves... they think they're all special prancing around with their tails up in the air. Tigers on the other hand are like "dude. I'll eat you if you piss me off." oh yeah ^^
heh I'm not sure... perhaps crocheted... since I don't really know how to sew. Definitely cool... I can see it now... *day dreams*

*nods* I'm headed over to the post office now, so I'll ask them about how long it usually takes. Who knows? Perhaps it'll get through customs very quickly and you'll have it in no time! I don't go on LJ either actually... I signed up for an account about two years ago and I only have one journal entry...about not having time to write a journal entry and that I would write one later XD ...but I think it'd be easier to post my patterns on a blog *nods*

Aaah serious? I have a kitty cat and she never gets away with doing that because I tease and annoy her XD! Don't get me wrong, I love her loads and I show her heaps of nice attention too, I just can't help but tease her because she hisses... She'd never scratch, but always hisses. It's so lulzy.. LOL! But yeah, big cats are win, too >D
That would take you 4evaromfg D: LOL! Well it'd take ME forever.. xD

FFF DD ayayayayayay! >D

Yeah, I can understand the patterns being on a blog. It'd be more organised for starters xD

My sister has a little kitten (I say kitten, but she's really a few years old lol, she's just so tiny!) and she honestly is afraid of people. I tried to pet her once and she just ran out of the room and hid in the wall, yes in the wall. I have no idea how she got into the wall. I have two puppies now though. Both mini dachshunds one is dapple and the other is black and tan... both girls of course ^^ the oldest is the black and tan one and her name is Katerina (kitty for short...ironic yes) and she's a little chubby, but I love her for her chubbyness XD she's also 8 years old...Midori is my little dapple puppy and she's only a few months old, she's really skinny though because she's so hyper!

It would take me forever too haha... At least I'm kinda tiny XD I'd only have to make it an xsmall...so I'd save some time there.

I think they will they'll be like oooh this is a special package, we must send this through right away!

Oh yes, most definitely. Much easier to find everything.

LOL! YEAH? I know so many smaller cats now... They're female though so that must be it. My last cat was BIGGG XD But she had a different Diet to Tassie because Tassie is on sp0ecial biscuits now... And she's tiny. But she's got SO much fur that she just looks... huuge xDD!!! BUT SHE'S SOFT Lol! DOGS mmm, I'm not a fan D: Dachshunds I wouldn't mind because they're smaller but.... yeah. Large dogs scurr me D: LOL!

YEAH! "It's soft and squisheh, how peculiar. LETS WORK FASTER FOR IT WOO" wtf. Lol!

XD you never know with cats... their sizes vary so much. I love my little Dachshunds, I don't think I could handle a bigger dog... I've had big dogs try to jump on me and knock me over. They get so rambunctious. My dogs are very calm lap dogs that love cuddling haha ^^ especially my Katerina...she's so short but so long XD... I like smaller dogs, but some of the small dogs are so yippee and obnoxious...and a lot of them are just ugly looking. I honestly don't know any other dogs I really like... except puppies, because puppies are pretty much all adorable.

hahaha that's EXACTLY how it'll go.

Is it hard to learn?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

TheHarley In reply to starsworne [2011-03-03 00:50:55 +0000 UTC]

I don't think it was too difficult, you just have to start out by learning how to make a crocheted square, then a circle, and then you can make simpler amigurumi (reading patterns is a little confusing at first-- I don't read patterns anymore though, I just make things without patterns) ...The hardest part is learning to see the stitches in the beginning. Just get a large hook and a cheap yarn (like red heart) in a color that isn't black or white. There's plenty of tutorials online just search for one that works for you, or more than one. You can also get a lot of books that'll help (but the internet is free )
