I found this yarn on Saturday, it’s blue and aqua and watery and fuzzy. I think this one is pretty much exactly what I want the cute ones to look like. Now I just have to build a good monster…
mwahahahahahahahahahahaha…
I do believe that every single attendee of Sunday’s event picked up this guy and squeaked. He has a new home, now, too!
This one went to the Indie Mart and found a new home!
(I really really want a better digital camera, that can handle red things without freaking all the way out.)
I am totally besmittened with this one. The body is about the same size as an apricot, cranky teeth, and horns-or-ears. I believe I will make this one again.
Here’s the latest big fuzzy one. Very soft, lots of tidepool colors.
Here is the fruit of a little bit of homework procrastination. He’ll be on sale at the Indie Mart, I’m sure. Fuzzy with little bits of green, somewhat bigger than a softball…
Here’s a pair of new guys, both using yarn I haven’t used before. The peachy rusty one is made with Crystal Palace Puffin yarn, and the green-eyed cream one is made with this strange acrylic-alpaca-wool-nylon blend yarn I found.
Made for the upcoming Indie Mart, yay!
I’ve been wishing for rain all day.
What with the mild concussion, the start of school, and a fairly sudden job interview, I’m slightly overstimulated.
Also, today, I looked, and someone has registered ‘dorklandia.blogspot.com’, which is funny and weird at the same time. I wonder if he saw my stuff at a craft fair somewhere and decided he must live there too.
No octopix today, I’m still a bit foggy from my great big bump-on-the-head.
Here’s all the information for the upcoming Indie Mart, which will be the next official octopiary outing…
