Here is my latest creation, just whipped together a pattern for this and absolutely love how it turned out!!

Here are some owlets and frogs I have made recently.  They are by Brigette Read and she has them free on her blog Roman Sock  - http://littlegreen.typepad.com/romansock/

These guys are so easy and so adorable!!!

I loooovvvveee these, this will be the next item on my hooks!! Thanks for the pattern!!

5/30/09:Finished! Nice easy pattern, thank you. He is so cute, I will be making more of these.

Thank you!!




These are the type of magnets I used, they are extra strong and I like these for my projects. I just stuffed them on top of the fiberfil stuffing and they blended in with it, no lumps. I put one on top of his back, one on each of his sides.

I hope you add a pic when you are done!

I created this little guy a little while ago but wanted to share him with you all. He is a pattern I created. I put magnets on his back and around his chubby sides so that he could sit on a co-workers desk and collect paper clips. Enjoy, I am including his pattern at the bottom of the photo.





This is one of the first patterns I created in the Amigurumi Style.
Please let me know if there are any errors! Thanks
