Zombie Body

Last week I showed the progress I made on the amigurumi Minecraft Zombie. I got a bit further this week:

This isn't too bad considering I had to rip out and redo a couple days' worth of work. I had used the wrong color for the shirt (a darker turquoise), and then I ran out of yarn. 

But, ripping out wasn't so easy as I had wound in some ends on the inside (from attaching the legs at the crotch) up into where I had to rip out. It wasn't too terrible once I got into it, but it was more work than I expected, especially as I'm on a deadline. Oh well. 

The above is the front view. That's legs and body. It isn't stuffed yet. Then I'll sew up that top flap. A head will go on top. Arms will be attached to the sides. 

Here's the back view: 

I'm not too worried about my deadline as of yet. We'll see how things go this week. 

And here's a link to the pattern I'm using.

  4. This looks cool, even if I’m not familiar with Minecraft—I’m curious to see how it turns out!

  5. I can't wait to see what it looks like. I've been making chickens and I need to finish some other crochet projects before I start on another chicken. Lol. Although, I did see some super cute fish I might want to do. :)

  7. I'm glad you let us know what it is, because I can't tell yet! Well, I can, in that you showed us what it will look like, but if I hadn't seen that...

    1. Yeah, I don't know how it's going to come out, either. We'll see if I manage to not mangle it.

  8. I was never successful with stuffed animals although I think I crocheted a panda for my son when he was a baby. I don't know anything about Minecraft, either, so all I can do is say "don't stress over it".

    1. I just need to get it finished before I leave on my trip. At this point I think finishing is still doable, but I'm wondering. I might be cutting it close.
