Amigurumi Ant

[purringbubbles]

He's completely crocheted, the entire body is one piece. It's just a matter of increasing and decreasing. The antenna and legs are separate and they curl, so the ant kinda looks dead if i don't stretch him out.



Second photo is a close-up of his fuzzy goodness.



The little guy's not perfect, but he makes me smile.

Great job.  I love the pic on the roof.

Definitely made me smile on an otherwise gloomy day.

ohhhh!  I like!  I bet that yarn was hard to work with though!

The yarn was definitely fickle.  It kept splitting and being obnoxious, but it was worth it.

I agree... I've used similar yarn, and by the end the product was cute, but I couldn't see any of my stitches to stitch into them...

I don't like real ants, but this one is totally adorable and hugable

he likes hugs muchly, my cousin's baby girl loved how he felt (and tasted apparently)- she's 7 months.
