I’ve started on Small Shen, which should be due next year in July (probably in time for a Christmas release). We shall see how it goes! Also, I’ve got a bumblebee crochet here, from a pattern kindly placed online by the Curious Crochet blog. Isn’t it cute?
Step 1: Start making the striped body. Learned to change colours in a single crochet body here.
Step 2: Added little black eyes... these were the first beady safety eyes I bought, and I'm glad I still have a use for them.... as they were actually too small!
Step 3: Sewed the stinger on. Almost made a mess out of this, as the stinger was so small it was hard to crochet.
Step 4: Crocheted the wings, and sewed the onto the body.
Here’s a pic of the finished Bumble Bee Amigurumi:
