First projects
I started learning to crochet just a few months ago and here are my first projects :)

Funky Spunky Monkey from Mr Funky's Super Crochet Wonderful. I'm really proud of this as it was my first completed project! I gave him to my fiancé who named him Graham.
This is Sebastian le Hamster, also from the Mr Funky book. I gave him to my friend Sonia who named him Pocket. I'm not so pleased with this one, I think I should've used a smaller hook and nicer yarn.
I made this mostly using the Funky Spunky Monkey pattern, but with the face/ears of the bear pattern later in the book. I really like how he turned out. I gave him to my friend Nicky who named him Jonathan.
Jonathan and Graham together.
Moogle, from this pattern. When I first started learning to crochet, this was the pattern I really wanted to make so I'm feeling very proud of myself right now! I didn't know I could make something so cute! I usually find small arms and legs quite fiddly but I guess my skills have improved because I didn't find these a problem. The wings gave me a little trouble because I hadn't dc'd or hdc'd before, but I got the hang of it after a few goes. This is a Christmas present for my ex, I shall miss this little moogle! I'm going to have to make one for myself.
