Livio Duckling the Ami

 Who says that you always have to stick to a plan?

Some time it is good to go off the track and embark on a new adventure.

This is how Livio came to life, I wanted to design a different animal and when I was ready to prepare its sketch I drew a duckling instead.

I’m so happy I let my creativeness to be free as Livio is so cheerful and full of energy that you can’t fall in love with him immediately.

                                          

Livio was featured in Simply Crochet, Issue 134 in March 2023.

Dora Duck The Ami

by Mary’s Amiland, September 2016

Dora is my second attempt at a duck, the first one has been a disaster and only now I have found the guts to give it another go.
My idea was to get head and body crocheted as one piece. It has taken me several attempts before getting to what I had in mind. I measured, counted, experimented shapes and ripped off so many times … but it was all worth for. I’m quite happy with the outcome, is she not cool with her hat on?
