Day 19 Dogtober - FREE Legoshi (Beastars) Pattern

For today I offer you a large doll pattern for Legoshi from Beastars. I opted to make him with the same chibi proportions I give my Animal Crossing Dolls and I used for Haida. A lot of his detailing is done with glued on felt, as I opted for his vest-less outfit, as I wanted to give my hand and making suspenders. You can definitely make his suspenders less detailed, or make him a little vest to go on top. His face is felted on with felting needles with details done with fine tip permanent marker. You could totally swap that out for glued or sewn felt if that's more of your vibe. I opted to give him his uncomfortable expression but feel free to make him happier if you wish. As always my patterns are written in US crochet terms, if you have any issues or find a typo or mistake please leave a comment. Thank you.

Materials:

• Crochet hook (3.25mm)
• Felting needles
• Yarn needle
• Medium weight yarn in grey blue, grey, white, and cream.
• Felt in White, black, brown and grey, and cream.
• Fine tip permanent markers in black, grey, and brown.

Day 18 Dogtober - Blues Clues

Today I offer you another freehand for Dogtober. A tiny little Blue from Blues Clues. Tomorrow is a big one so I had to save some time. Blues Clues was one of my favourite shows when I was younger, and the Humongous Entertainment games were a staple and still kind of are in my life lol. This Blue is based off of art of her used in the ABC Song from Blues Clues & You!

I hope you all are enjoying all the free patterns so far but sometimes I gotta have a little break!

Day 17 Dogtober - Pochacco

No pattern today for Dogtober, no new doll either. Today I want to share with you a very old project I made. Back in 2018 when I was first learning how to make Amigurumi I took a book out of my local library called Hello Kitty Crochet by Mei Li Lee. My grandmother's birthday was just coming up and she was currently in the ICU. I decided to try my best and make her a little Pochacco. He was lumpy and far from great but as she recovered in the hospital she held him constantly. It meant so much to me. She passed away in January this year and the little guy was brought back to me. I tried to clean him up a bit, he's still lumpy, but it shows me how far I've come and how much the things I make mean to the people I love.

If you're just beginning in your crochet, I believe you can get to whatever level you want to, all you gotta do is try.

Also I highly recommend this book for beginners as it has so many simple patterns and heck who doesn't love Sanrio!
