[KristieMN]

You can pose these bugs to sit ontop of your monitor, speakers ect.

 

I am looking foor 5-6 testers to try them.

General supplies:

Size F Crochet Hook

Small amounts of ww yarn

Tapestry needle for sewing

Small amount of fiberfill

Black craft pipe cleaners

Embroidery floss

Small buttons for eyes (optional)

 

I am going to warn you, some of the pieces (like the antennas) are small.

PM me if you are interested.

Thanks!

 

 

Just like last time, the response was great! Thank you to all my testers who volunteered! I am looking forward to seeing what you create.

Thank you all for the compliments!

I am with you, I am excited to see what the testers come up with.

I have made 2 of each bug so far, ...and they keep walking out of the house with someone.

The last one left with my dad. Funny how things up and walk away!

[Homebody]

KristieMN, Well - you did put legs on them! You must give them names.

[KristieMN]

Hi! Here is what I made from Kristie's pattern.

 

 

I know I will be making some more of these later on as gifts. Its really such a cute design, I could not have thought of it myself. And the patterns were easy to follow.

Thanks Kristie, for letting me test your computer bugs patterns!

[KristieMN]

They look great!!

I love them. Thank you for testing the pattern.

I am sure they will make great gifts.

thank you!

I finished one, I can't take a picture though, until I get new batteries for my camera. I only noticed maybe one 'mistake', on the foot Row 1. Where it says, 'Working along back side of chain, sc in middle sc, sc in end sc.' I think you are skipping the first one. Every time I don't come up with 8, but if I do that first stitch, I come up with 8 sc. That's the only thing I noticed.

 

I also made my legs and arms crocheted.. (antennas, too). I know (from past experience, with a Love Bug I made w/ antennas out of pipe cleaners...) The three year old will pull them out and they get lost. Doesn't matter how much glue,... He slept with his bug last night, it was so cute. Soon as I get batteries I'll post a picture. (Before he 'loves it' too much... )

 

Thank you Kristen for letting me be a tester! I hope to make the other two soon, too.

sounds good!

I cant wait to see them!

[Mom w/a Motif]

Well here is one little guy I finished last night. He went to bed with him, he went to the Nature Center today with us, he's playing with him right now... (I think he really likes him!) He picked out all the colors himself, too. (I think they turned out pretty good together.) Well here he is:

 

This is yellow and green (the colors turned out dark in the picture.)

 

Now I am making the middle one for his brother, but as a bee. (We saw a bee hive at the Nature Center...)

 

Here they are together. Now I have to make a 'Queen Bee'.
