I was about to make a new post, and I didn't realize I hadn't actually posted this public; I posted this private. ...like way back in March... but wow, I didn't realize it was so many months. So I'm just going to update and post this old one, and make another entry later.

Yeah seriously, I really need to update more....

I finished the trilogy called The Hunger Games. I actually finished the three in a week (started on a Friday at noon, and finished the third book the following Tuesday). Seriously, it's a great series. It's like Battle Royale in a sort of post-revolution/apocalyptic America and it's at the POV of a 16-year-old girl coming into age. It's crazy good!

Also finished the third book in the Game of Thrones series. Wow, so much goes on; I can't wait to finish the rest, and watch the series.

Of course-- doing more knitting. And uhm, this is a lot better than the shit I was posting before. Seriously, all the stuff I posted earlier was crap-tier.



A beret for Kim for her birthday! I do hope it looks as good on her as on the mannequin.








Started making amigurumi-- knitted stuffed animals! Like this squid! :3 This is before the eyes though...


But I figured how to crochet the eyes since I had issues knitting them...


And now, action shots! Many many action shots!


IT'S COMING FOR YOU


AAAAACHHHHGHGH *gurgle*


Ok, please please excuse the messiness of my room. But the tentacles are all pose-able because of the pipe cleaner wires.


And here's just a closer shot of the face.


My second amigurumi is Mr. Octopus! He's pretty cute. Here he is sitting on my laptop.


He's kinda small though, so he might be a baby octopus. I'll probably try to make a large one with larger yarn and needles.


He's got a big head.


Salute! :3


Also knitted a seastar. I was going to try to make it into a magnet, but the magnets weren't strong enough for the seastar. It's about the size of my hand.


And now some ATTACK SHOTS

OM NOM NOM NOM


piloting the sheep




Octopus vs. Squid-- WHO WILL WIN


Neither, they're friends


Fourth stuffed animal. Please tell me you know what it is by looking at it...


Why yes! It is a grilled squid!


Grill marks are just lines I sewed on the top.


Blaaaaaah~
