Jellyfish No. 20

Last week I did my jellyfish inventory and showed my current jellyfish in progress...


I finally got it completed Thursday night. Not that I had all that much to do. It was just one of those weeks where I'd get home and would be so out of it that I didn't have the energy to do that final bit of detail work--the face.

(The pattern gives great detail in where the eyes should go. Unfortunately, getting the smile right and in the center between the eyes is always a bit of a challenge.)

So, now it's finally finished...


And I posted a short video to Instagram (because I like to see it move)...

    You got it done!
    The video is cool. Almost looks like he's in the water.

      As long as they keep finding homes I'll keep making them.

    That is so groovy. :) You know, you could try making a '60s crochet mini dress (a la the Summer of Love) next! ;)

      I could. But only if my niece wants one, as I won't wear it, and if it doesn't have an ultimate destination, I'm not going to bother.

    Cute! Of course the video is stuttering for me (my internet has been so choppy lately). I will assume it's as cute as I imagine.

      I do believe it's even heated. (Not my place.)

    You should pitch to marine parks! I'm sure they would buy in bulk as decorations.

      Except... Buying in bulk would mean they'd want a discount. And I'm making them at a loss at the moment. It wouldn't be worth it to me.

    Sorry to learn the pool isn't yours. It does look inviting. That's interesting that the smile is tricky.

      I should just stitch through the yarn. That would do it ;)
