If you know me, it doesn't take long to figure out that my favorite movie is How to Train Your Dragon. Hands down. So I was stoked about the sequel! And I'm still stoked about it because HTTYD 2 was fantastic!<br />

What better way to celebrate the second movie than with a Toothless crochet? I've made a plush, I've made someone else's pattern, and now I've made my own version of Toothless!</div>

I normally don't write patterns down, but for the wings I kept detailed notes. It was a good thing too! The tail fins and the... mid wings(?) are basically shorter modified version of the wings so those notes came in handy. The skull on the tail fin is painted on.</div>

Eyes are made of felt and sewn on. I used Malabrigo - Pearl Ten, and it took three skeins. Three. That's the most yarn I've ever used! I had to run out and find another skein, and luckily the store had the same dye lot, as I'd bought the yarn a couple months prior.</div>

Let me tell you, crocheting and reading subtitles is hard! But as I was watching I got it into my head that I needed to make some CCS crochet.<br />

I mean, he's literally supposed to look like a stuffed animal in the show! So his design was very easy to translate into crochet. I'm pretty sure that there were pre-existing Kero patterns out there, CCS has been around for a long time, but at this point I'm so used to making my own stuff that I just went for it.</div>

His tail is a chain + pom pom, where the pom is slightly shaped so it's not completely circular. I think the wings were just tubes that I crocheted together. I can't recall it was a while ago when I made him. (I've been so lax in cross-posting everything to this blog.)</div>

His hair was much easier to manage than Phoenix's... though it's actually quite similar! I just flipped the shapes in different directions. Like I said, Miles was the first one that I made so I bounced off of his hair design until I was able to come up with something that I liked for Phoenix.</div>

He also doesn't stand on his own... my human crochets just don't have that much stability or balance. That's okay, they're cute. <span style="text-align: center;">Probably my favorite part was crocheting his little cravat. It was super extra cute!</span></div>

Been replaying the Ace Attorney series, and felt the overwhelming urge to pick up a hook! Also got to do a tiny bit of embroidery in his eyebrows and lawyer badge... I'm not really that great at embroidery so it'll have to do.<br />

This'd be Phoenix Wright himself. The star of the first three games. His signature look is that gosh darned spikey hair... which is hard to capture with crochet. I'm terrible with hair in general, but I managed to get something I was satisfied with. Based it off of some wings patterns I recalled from a couple years ago. I think.<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">

Now he doesn't actually stand on his own. Sadly. Instead I have impaled him with a knitting needle that is propped against the wall. This is beginning to sound like one of Phoenix's crazy cases...<br />

His arms and legs, however, are pose-able. I stuffed them with pipe cleaners meaning I could have tons of fun posing him in the same manner as some of his talk sprites!<br />

Though... I haven't done many projects so there hasn't been much to update with! But I did do a fairly big one late in the summer of last year. I took on a Kaiju!<br />

When Pacific Rim came out last year I became completely enamored with it. Just. I absolutely loved it! Giant robots... giant monsters... what more could one ask for?</div>

The answer to that is of course, a crochet kaiju! I chose the kaiju that got the most screentime: Otachi. She's kind of like a flying-lizard-ninja or something. Absolutely fab.</div>

Of course there were no patterns to follow at the time so I just... winged it. ;) It is one of my bigger projects, as I've said before. I actually did a draft of Otachi before hand resulting in my room being littered with various kaiju parts... much like a certain scientist.</div>

She took quite a while to make. And physically she's one of my largest amigurumis to date. While not too complicated she does have a couple tricks. Toes. Those crocodile scales on her back. Moving joints in her wings. All a challenge.</div>

I also went out and got some nice yarn for her. No Red Heart for mama Otachi. I forget the brand but it was a nice pretty wool. uwu<br />

Now, part of the process of amigurumi is simplifying the design of the intended product. I can certainly say she's been simplified! The real otachi has so many spikes and glowy spots... I tried to capture the overall feel with the more prominent ones. The parts that helped make Otachi's design feel so awesome.</div>

She turned out absolutely fantastic! She's been my pride for almost a year, and I still think she's one of my most daring projects.

I thought that the <a href="http://www.lionbrand.com/faq/586.html">pattern</a> looked super cute, but it turned out a bit disappointing. Not enough crocheting and too much sewing stuff on. I made up the teeth since I didn't have any lace on hand, and I think I used a different pom-pom technique than the pattern.</div>

Recently I redesigned one of my characters—Morpheus—and since she was on my mind I decided to make her into a chupacabra. Her main colors are purples and golds. For her horns I gave her curly little swirls based off of the crown she wears. Morpheus also has tiny little wings on her ankles, so of course her cabra gets those as well. I almost forgot to add them.</div>

Those bigger wings though... Wings always give me trouble, no matter what media I work with... though in 3D media more-so than 2D. Morpheus wears some kine of weird feathered cloak covered in stars. I didn't get quite the effect I wanted with the blues, but it still looks nice.</div>

<span style="text-align: left;">This chupa is definitely an improvement on my </span><a href="http://lemmyloop.blogspot.com/2011/09/chupacabra-sculptures.html" style="text-align: left;">last figurines</a><span style="text-align: left;"> as she can actually stand on two legs.

Also, she gets cute little paw pads—on her feet and hands.</span><br />

Today we have a hippogriff from <a href="http://bandotaku.deviantart.com/art/Hippogriff-Amigurumi-Pattern-214637614">this pattern</a>. I'm not entirely sure how I found the pattern, but it was in my queue so I went for it. Originally I had intended to use grays, but as it turned out I didn't have much gray yarn left in my stash. In the end I decided to instead use brighter colors and came out with a cute foxy hippogriff.</div>

The pattern was pretty good, I only found a few mistakes in it, though I don't remember where. I think they were just a few stitches that I thought should be changed, not even mistakes at all. The ears I crocheted with two strands of yarn which I think was a good idea because they stand straight instead of curling.</div>

The <a href="http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/roll-up-armadillo">pattern</a> is only available on Ravelry (as far as I know at least.) It's worked in mostly in HDC which was a surprising change, but nice since the crocheting went faster. </div>

I changed the pattern up when I was knitting his feet. For some reason I can never get the "puff" stitch to look any good so I resorted to formatting my regular method of toes. I also reversed one of the ears so that they mirrored each other.<br />

I'm just going through my Ravelry queue right now and these knitted mushrooms popped up. The <a href="http://beewee.net/wordpress/?p=104#more-104">pattern </a>is simple and worked in one piece so you don't have to sew anything together. I though that was pretty neat.</div>

I only tweaked the pattern a little bit, and that was just by curling the ears before I attached them. Also, I added hooks to her feet so that they connect and she can hang from things.</div>

Combine that with a love for dragons, and you have a bat-dragon. Which, incidentally exists in DragonVale. I present, the Sonic Dragon!<div>

Again, I used a lot of the same parts fro previous dragons for this dragon so it was a breeze for the most part. For her nose and tail "fin" I used this <a href="http://www.kundhi.com/blog/2010/01/22/tiny-crochet-heart-pattern/">tiny heart pattern</a>, in both the big and small version.</div>

The only thing that gave me trouble was the ear "fins". For those it just required a bit of patience. I like how they turned out though, they look silly! A good silly. I really liked the eyelashes from the Sonic Dragon's design so I made sure to include them. </div>

I looked through so many references in order to try and get him to be accurate, but I had to leave out quite a bit so he wouldn't be too cluttered. I went with Loki's "Avenger" outfit. There are so many little details. So. Many. But even so, there's quite a bit missing, but overall I really like how it turned out. .</div>

Still <i>hooked</i> on DragonVale. (Get it, hooked, like... crochet hook!?) In my desperate effort to make a pair of wings that I could be proud of I decided to tackled another dragon. I had a lot of red yarn so I went for the game's iconic fire dragon.</div>

A lot of this is just recycled from the plant dragon, so making up the pattern wasn't hard at all. In the game, the adult fire dragon had a bunch of teeth so i gave him little teeth and he seems happy about it.</div>

So recently I started playing an iPod game called DragonVale and it is just the cutest thing ever. There are so many little dragons with absolutely the cutest design. It's adorable. Since I had an excess of green yarn I went ahead and made the plant dragon from the game.</div>

He doesn't stand on his own, but if you prop his tail against something he can manage it. This guy was fun, I just kind of made up the design as I went. Sometimes I tried to remember what I did on <a href="http://lemmyloop.blogspot.com/2011/06/night-fury-amigurumi.html">Toothless</a>, but for the most part I did it on the <i>fly</i>.</div>

Those wings. Those wings were the hardest thing ever. I kept trying to come up with a design but it never worked. I had a couple of judges to help me decide on designs, and eventually I came up with what you see here! They turned out lovely, it was worth working through a few designs...

I made this two summers ago. My class-load was really heavy and when I finally got a break I decided to do something epic. One of my friends had suggested a flash drive dragon, and I fell in love with the idea.</div>

Man, this was an enormous undertaking. I built her piece by piece and baked her one part at a time. My favorite part is the external rib cage. Definitely. She's a fully functioning flash drive as well! Though I don't think she's the kind you'd carry around with you, she'd probably break.</div>

But I really didn't feel like forking over the money to get one since they were kind of pricey and I didn't think I'd actually wear it. The solution? Make one.<br />

Originally my pin didn't have the ring, since... I couldn't sculpt one. Right before I took pictures I remembered all the gold key rings I had! It fit perfectly. I am now ready for the movie.<br />
