I tried to crochet a Rilakkuma (Lazy Bear), a super adorable San-X character. The only real pattern for him was in this adorable, but pricey Japanese craft book, so I had to improvise. It’s not exactly the same, but I came pretty close. My son fell in love with him, so I’m happy with it.

The Infected
After watching 28 Days Later and 28 Weeks Later, I couldn’t stop dreaming about zombies. I know technically The Infected are not zombies, but close enough. I decided to crochet a cute little zombie to rid me of my fear. I also made him a zombie girl plushie companion. Both of these were given away in a swap.

Yay! I started crocheting an Ichigo about 2 years ago and finally finished it last month! Ichigo is a cousin to the Little Prince in the popular video game, Katamari Damacy. She is still my favorite character 5 sequels later. The catalyst for completing a hibernating UFO (“unfinished object” for all you non crafters), was a request for a magnetic katamari ball. I ended up making one for my daughter too and she needed a character to roll with, so I crocheted Ichigo’s legs, added finishing touches and she was done!
