Magnetic Katamari Pattern « Amy’s Babies. By Amy Shimel About the Magnets This pattern has been a long time comming. I was trying to figure out how to explain all the testing I went through with all the different types of magnets. In an atempt to lower the cost of making these Katamari, I tested just about every type of 3/4″ round magnets that are available in the craft shops and discount stores. I found there were two types of magnets out there. 50 in a package for $5 sounds like a great deal, but the magnets are not strong enough to pick stuff up through the yarn. The Other Supplies Besides 3.5 packs of magnets, you will also need: Brightly colored yarn (a main body color, a center color and a band color) Caron Simply Soft Brites works fantasticaly for this patternCrochet hooks in size E and GA tapestry needlepoly-fill for stuffing Let’s Go!

This is a super easy and quick pattern. You will start with the E hook and your main body color. The ball will be worked in two halves and then sewn together and stuffed. Like this: Our 20 Favorite Crochet Sites. Charizard « AH! Creations. Beau has talked about me making a Charizard for a long time now. I was always hesitant (he made me a little nervous), but finally gave in as usual.

He had some ups and downs along the way, his head was especially frustrating, but after a while he finally started coming together. The touch I am most pleased with is his flame. Beau and I have been trying to figure out how to make our Charmander’s flame (wolfdreamer) ever since I made it month’s ago. It finally hit me while playing with some polyfil, that it looked like a flame when shaped. We both hope you like the latest pattern.

WolfDreamer. Eevee Plush. I finally decided to tackle Eevee. The pictures I'm afraid don't do the doll justice at all. She's really much cuter than the pictures show. LOL Eevee can be a tough one mostly because she's all shades of brown. If I have one great weakness, it's doing the faces. If you have any problems with the pattern, please let me know, I'll fix it as soon as possible.
