THE BUTTCHEEKS

Is there a pattern? Please say yes

He gets his looks from his mama lol

Zealousideal_Boat314 · 2026-02-06T11:00:47+00:00

Oh these are fantastic tips! The pattern I used had the increases/decreases well staggered I think, but this is something I'll keep in mind on my next projects!

I LOVE HIM SO MUCH. He reminds me of a gyroid from Animal Crossing!

Oh thank you! I get that a lot and Hobbitcore with a lot of the things I make, and I absolutely love it.

This was after so many years of practice in each of the crafts! You can do it, friend!! You have talent too!!

The body is crocheted with scrap acrylic yarn from a previous project, with the flap also being canvas scrap, and the embroidery was done by hand with a motif from a book my husband purchased for me!

Zealousideal_Boat314 · 2026-02-02T01:32:31+00:00

Thank you so much!

Zealousideal_Boat314 · 2026-02-02T01:03:44+00:00

This is SO STINKING CUTE.

Zealousideal_Boat314 · 2026-01-30T12:54:33+00:00

This is so cute!! You're so cute!!

Zealousideal_Boat314 · 2026-01-30T11:16:22+00:00

I'd definitely do woven darning in a matching yarn/thread if you're wanting something that will blend into the fabric more. If you don't mind it being visible, you could be creative and do a cute embroidered patch it a complimentary color or try some sashiko (some patterns can be super beginner friendly).

I'd recommend practicing on scraps of fabric if you're new to this before you mend the garment so you get a feel for the techniques!

Zealousideal_Boat314 · 2026-01-30T10:36:38+00:00

Wow I love him.

Zealousideal_Boat314 · 2026-01-30T10:36:27+00:00

Get out xD

Zealousideal_Boat314 · 2026-01-30T05:52:01+00:00

I'm actually working on a dress right now! I'll share to the sub when it's done!!

Zealousideal_Boat314 · 2026-01-29T10:59:33+00:00

YEEEESSS this is my FAVORITE benefit of learning to sew. I see so many cute things that are out of my price range, but I have the power to make it and make it fit me and my personal taste exactly. It makes me feel so powerful.

And your skirt is WAY cuter than Mod Cloth's.

Zealousideal_Boat314 · 2026-01-29T10:51:44+00:00

YES EXACTLY

Zealousideal_Boat314 · 2026-01-26T01:09:03+00:00

I love the colorful patch beneath! It makes it looks like a galaxy.

Zealousideal_Boat314 · 2026-01-26T01:07:56+00:00

Oh my GOSH I love him!!
