Day 2: inspiration

The journal entry for today was "what's your favorite animal?" and that's a no brainer: CATS! I am the "crazy cat lady". Seriously, ask my boyfriend. I have so many cat related things that to say them all would take too long.

But anyway. So, I knew "cat" was going to be my inspiration, now it was a matter of figuring out how i was going to create something. And since I've been in my crochet kick (and getting better if i do say so myself), i decided to crochet a kitty :)

now, when you google "amigurumi cat patterns", there's some shitty ones out there. Then i thought, "oh man, how cute would a hello kitty look as a amigurumi?!"

*googled*

"oh, i was right. DONE!"

So i found the best pattern, wrote it down, and got to it. For some reason, i had a hard time focusing on my stitch counts, cuz i got lost a few times. Thought i back tracked enough to have solved the problem, and it still turned out ok. Maybe not according to the pattern, but it's done, stuffed, and cute!

vola!

oh! and i know its technically the third day as i'm posting this, but funny story (sorta). So as i was completing the final stitch to attach the bow, i looked up at the clock and it was 11:59pm. Technically day 2. But then i got side tracked into catching up on our DVR stuff (Walking Dead, hello!?), so i'm posting this in the early hours of day 3. I'll really try and not put these off, but no promises.
