Description Sorry about the annoying glare from his purty white teeth. LOL This is basically a proto-type for a larger version I plan on making later, I didn't spend much time on editing this photo.

I wasn't sure that the 'cube' would work. It's done all in one piece, so I wanted to experiment with making cubes in a single piece, instead of making six sides and sewing them together.

My 15 year old laid claim to the 'experiment' LOL. I'll be adding pattern for it on the blog after a few days. I've got several others to do as well, I'll just set aside a day for all that.

** Pattern added**

Seriously, I think you're one of the coolest crafters on this whole site *bows before the awesome*

Thank you kindly! I hope you do get someone to make a few for you.... but better yet... try youtube for helpful videos on crocheting. There are THOUSANDS there... and some even specifically for this type of crochet (amigurumi or doll making). Try it out

That is exactly how I'm learning! I also take my kids to a playgroup that, while primarily a hula hooping group for us trying to get into shape, is half knitting/crochet playgroup, so I have plenty of people to help. I also have carpal tunnel, though, so it's slow going for me.

If you want, i can also try to answer questions for you if you have them. Sometimes it's just hard to identify a problem without being able to 'see' the issue, but I'm very happy to try!

If you have questions about crochet/knit, let me know, I'll do my best to help you

Thanks I'm a bit hard to teach because I'm a kinesthetic learner, so I basically just have to DO it until I 'get' it. That can be super frustrating for people trying to teach me, lol--I had a piano teacher give up on me when she realized that because I was so frustrated by my slow reading of music, I was just imitating watching her playing--didn't matter that my imitation was flawless. She wanted me to learn to play on my own, so I could continue learning past her, but that's just not how I learn. Now youtube is my best friend for learning (well, guitar, anyway).

Haha. I always hated these guys when I was playing Mario. Awesome job on this though. If only I had the skills to make one myself!

I'm working on getting the pattern to that one done... I need to go thru it all again first before I type it out, but I'll get to that as soon as I can

Haha, I like the chains!
I've never made an all-in-one cube, but it's always seemed to me that it would turn out blobby rather than cube-y... but yours turned out nice! It's good to know that cubes CAN be made that way!

I thought the cube would end up kinda 'blobby' too, but it worked up far better than I thought it would. Now that I know I *can* make cubes like that, I've got a ton of ideas of things to do LOL
