Pignite



This was one of those projects that was supposed to be a quick, just for fun thing that ended up turning into a real project. What I've learned from this experience: an easy project only incorporates 5 pieces or less. Nevertheless, I'm happy with how it came out, so all's well that ends well. Hope you like it.

N.B. This pattern hasn't been tested by anyone but me, please let me know if there are any problems with it. There are some pieces that I had trouble making that I'm not sure if I wrote down correctly, so please tell me.

Quilava



I made a small version of this ages ago (not pictured here--I'll try to take one later), but didn't have the color yarn for the back, so I couldn't finish a normal size. Then of course I got it but I didn't have the material for the legs with me. Finally over Thanksgiving I managed to get all the pieces together and I was able to finish it today (in between working on my Christmas gifts and doing school work, of course ~_^). Hope you like it!

Vulpix




This is a side project I finished while I was working on my big 3-part project, which hopefully I will finish in the next couple of months. It was actually easier than I expected; the trickest part wasn't crocheting at all, but getting the eyes right. I ended up making it a closed eye version after various failed attempts. I think she looks cute this way, but if anyone makes a good eye version, I'd love to see it. She's posable, and can either sit or stand. I hope you like her, and as always, if there are questions, let me know.

Update Hair instructions added, sorry for the confusion.
