Crochet for Charity!

Jan 14, 2010 09:39

Okay, I'm kind of a broke student person, so I'm offering my wicked hooking skills at help_haiti. Crochet hooking, that is. I'm putting up an auction for two mini Cthulhus and a dinosaur of the winner's choice (three separate auctions), and it is only fair that anyone interested knows what they're bidding on! So below the cut are images of the things I can ( Read more... )

Oh my goodness, little purple button-eyed Cthulu! Make me wish I knew how to crochet. Those are awesome things to offer.

It's not hard to learn! I'm a lefty, and even I can do it. :D It's tremendously fun, too.

(If you ever do learn, let me know and I'll send you the Cthulhu pattern! I modified the pattern from a book called Creepy Cute Crochet. Also, that would give me an excuse to actually set down the way I do the wings, because they tend to be different each time!)

No worries. I'm broke and he's a brat. :)

Lol! Well, okay then. I'm still sorry that I failed to make it for you--the holiday just completely devoured my brains. (If you happened to want it for yourself, though...) ;)

You are amazing! Those are so adorable.

Finally showed the pics to Aidan, and apparently he likes the triceratops AND the stegosaurus best. As in, he kept saying first one, and then the other, and then when I asked "But which of them do you like BEST?", he said "The steg-a-sauwus AAAAAANNND the twi-sawa-tops!" I asked "So if you got either one of those, you'd be happy?" And he said emphatically "YES!"

So, given that, my executive decision is: stegosaurus. Because I think it's the cutest. :-)

In terms of colour, I asked him, and he said "Purple AN' blue AN' green!" So if you have any sort of multicoloured yarn, that would be great - if not, maybe the different parts could be different colours?

Purple and blue and green, huh? Sounds like he's about as decisive as I am! :) I'd be happy to go hunting for some variegated yarn...if the plow hadn't dumped two feet of packed-in snow behind my car. *sigh* No yarn-shopping for me in the near future, it seems.

Do you think he'd like something along the lines of a purple stegosaurus with blue eyes and alternating blue and green plates? :D
