I hope you all had a lovely Christmas! My last christmas project was this cactus man again from amigurumi de yururi.
this is to my grandpa who has to stay in his bed all day because he is now too weak to walk. I wanted something fun and cheering in his bedside. For Christmas, I added some more fun to the cactus:
he normally wears this hat though:
the hats are not included in the pattern. so I’ll briefly mention how I did it here.
Rd 1: ch 6 into a ring with a Magic Ring method
Rd 2: 2 sc in 1 ch across (12 sc)
Rd 3: 12 sc
Rd 4: (1 sc, 2 sc in 1 ch) across (18 sc)
Rd 5: 18 sc
Rd 6: 2 sc in 1 ch across (36 sc) (start of the brim)
Rd 7: 36 sc, cut yarn and weave ends (for the Christmas one, I added another round in a white fluffy yarn)
I hope this helps!
Well, I think this will be my last post in 2008. I hope you all have a fun and happy new year. I have lots of UFOs carrying over to 2009;) I hope I can finish these soon and show them here next year!
