3/17/2017 0 Comments Crocheting as a process.Because I make up my own patterns there is a lot that goes into making each one of my items. If it is something that someone is going to wear I have to figure out the sizing (or the number of stitches needed to fit the person correctly). I normally with take things apart a couple times before getting to the end goal. With things like amigurumis (plushies) I do this even more so. I will visualize all of the pieces in my head and from there I think about what I need to do to bring those pieces to life. If I don't know how to do something I will look up videos but most of the time I am just solving the puzzle in my head. I picture the way things look based off of what I've already done or have seen someone do, think about the different stitches it would take to make that and how I can go about making all of these unique shapes.
For raptor kitty, I had to take two creatures and put them together, normally I will go off of pictures and then replicate what I see as best as I can, but with this one I was only replicating parts and feelings. I wanted raptor kitty to represent me, and the silly person I am. So I wanted her to have the sweet kitty face but also the raptor like feel, I'd assume it is the same type of thinking that would go into making pokemon, as they are normally a mesh of two creatures (I actually used to make up new pokemon with my dad when I was little). I tried crocheting her claws and eyes but didn't like them so I switched for felt instead and the same goes for the bow I tried to crochet it but it just wasn't right so I went into my ribbon stash (ribbons I've accumulated over the years some were on presents or other things, and some were presents) and put this pretty white one on her :). There is a lot that goes into each of the pieces I make especially when it comes to custom orders. I want to make everything perfect, special, and unique, and I think I do a pretty good job of that! I hope you enjoy them as much as I do!
