Mom w/a Motif Posted September 9, 2011 After seeing crochetbug13's Perry the Platypus, I HAD to try and make one myself. I don't have the book she used for the body, so I improvised. I went a lot from her pictures, and guesstimating/making stuff up. Mine is a lot skinnier & not as cute, but... I gave it to our 8 year old yesterday. He's been having a hard time adjusting to a new school/third grade being harder than second grade. Since he has been trying so hard & doing well, I made him a "reward". (I would have made it for him anyway, but..) (I made his older brother a Darth Vader, today. He was also having a hard time adjusting to high school.) He likes it. His Dad said he was going to take it, since he liked it better than him. Lol.. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
magicfan Posted September 9, 2011 I think he's very cute. That's what's so much fun about crocheting...everyone puts their own twist on things. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
