My Little Pony crochet
Sep. 14th, 2011 01:18 pmOne of the "benefits" to my abysmal phone internet connection is that I often have to wait a considerable amount of time while things load. Sometimes I can keep editing or read stuff that's already loaded, but sometimes I need something else to do while I wait…
So yeah, I've been working on making a crochet pattern based on the shapes of the ponies in My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic. She's not done yet, and I suspect the next version will have some changes, but I'm pretty happy with how she turned out! Custom-made pony plushies are going for over $100 on ebay and while I appreciate that a lot of work goes into these, it sort of made me sad: one of the things that was great about my little pony for me as a little girl was that I could pick them up for 25 cents at a garage sale. I wanted to make something that I could maybe share with fans who wanted a cheaper custom pony.
She's almost ready for my beta pattern tester, but it'll be a little while before I get it written out clearly enough to share with everyone!
