TESTERS FOUND preview #16!! !for Piggyback Pals

[KristieMN]

Thank you to all who vounteered for testing!

 

o.k..kind of a dorky name...but it describes the idea I have

 

These were inspired by the monkeys I seen at carnivals as prizes.

You know, those games that very few people win at....

They can either be sewn together so they face forward, to put on a door knob or such, or sewn together so they look to the side like I did with the monkey.

 

i am looking for 6-8 testers. Please let me know if you are intersted

About 3 inches of Velcro for each animal

 

General terms

Sc-dec= single crochet decrease (decrease over 2 stitches)

Just checking in, I see some have finished an animal...

hows everyone doing on them?

[angelfire]

I finished all the parts for Mikey Monkey and Phoebe Pig (my names) and I am working on Chrissy Cat I want to put them all together on my drive to my DD this weekend...it is a long drive.

[stormy]

I am working on the cat (wanted to do the tiger but don't have the felt yet) and am almost finished, just need to find my pipe cleaners and velcro (I know they are around her somewhere:think ) and embroider the face, the cat is all put together otherwise and the pattern was very easy to follow!

 

Thanks for letting me test Kristen!

I want to do the monkey next.

[Kiirs]

If you ever decide you need more testers, please let me know! These are sooo cute!! I am just amazed at your talent. Every pattern you put out I think "it can't possibly get any better than this" but you always prove me wrong.

[KristieMN]

I am dying to show this to someone!

This is the first time I have done an open mouth animal.

Before the eyes and body were on, it looked like a green pac man.

 

I still have quite a bit of work to do on it,...but what do you think so far?

[Everyday Crochet]

I love the froggy one!!!! My best friend loves froggies.

Kristen I LOVE it Fabulous job !!

[Kiirs]

Oh, so cute!! It looks like he could be adapted into a puppet, too. Oh, the talent!!!!

[tiggerhale]

Kristie - the frog is awesome! I've not done an open mouth before (I don't think) but I did start to do one and had read the pattern for it. It wasn't as cute as your frog!!

 

I'm going to do the Tiger - and probably crochet my stripes then sew them on. I'm going to give it to a rather rowdy young man and I want the stripes to stay put. I'll be starting tomorrow - just don't have time today - ugh!

[beth eathorne]

i am working on the monkey. got a few parts done last night between phone calls.i can crochet at work while i am not answering 911 calls. The pieces work up great and the instructions are very clear. I have a green body and head with pink ears and mouth. thanks again for letting me test this for you.

[daisycrochet]

My daughter is sooo hooked to those kinds of animals. Always getting them from the dollar store, lol. If you have the space I would love to give it a whirl.

[Yelutci]
