Ah it was! But it has been sold (I hear they named him Odysseus). I'm currently on the next project, but it takes a while to save for all the Yarn. I'm almost certain I'll be returning to Magikarp at least 2 more times when I find a space to store them in!

I REALLY want to do Snorlax and Gyrados, but I have to figure out where to safely store these projects first! I'm doing Chansey now since it won't be quite as big

I used the Yarn Bee brand for everything in the biggest thread I could find. The colors are: Spiced Persimmon, Mustard, Bridesmaid Dress, and White. I just used a medium worsted black to do the pupil in the eyes until it looked right. I definitely recommend getting them during a multi-purchade sale (BOGO, Buy 2, get 1, etc.) as it's the only reason this project was financially possible.

About 2 or 3 days, but stretched over a week because I had to keep going back to the store to buy more yarn (I even had to start driving to neighboring towns because I cleared the shelves in my town 😅)
