After designing Enrico Dog I started drawing other small characters based on the same body’s structure. Rosie is just one of those cute little fellows.
It has been so much fun working on this little girl that I’m already impatient to start the next one: stay tuned!
For this little dog I managed to make such a lovely sketch, me who is not able to draw!
My first crochet version was nothing closer to the cuteness it was supposed to be, off I restarted again and finally it turned out almost same as the sketch.
As I remade Enrico I realized that it would have been better to make him seamless for the tiny pieces of his body. At the end I came up with a super-fast pattern that requires little embroidery and sewing in the end.
This monkey was a little devil as I worked on his design, I cannot tell how many times I remade some of his parts. I was so much frustrated with this character that I was on the edge to hide him in my projects bag and forget him for good.
Now that he sits in front of me with that mischief face, I feel overcome with joy and pride. I’m totally in love with Emilio, he is such an handsome guy and his smile is irresistible.
Emilio was featured in Simply Crochet, Issue 102 in September 20
I have seen many videos of pandas recently, they are adorable and at the end I could not help but design my own panda.
Why I have chosen to make it in blue?
I hate working with black yarn and I wanted to make something different from the other crochet pandas you can see on the web.
I discovered only afterwards that I was not the first one to design a blue panda… but Winston is by far the cutest, don’t you think?
