My very first amigurumi -- Turtle! NEW post #9 and #10!

[SheriB626]

I have a group of friends with a running joke about a turtle, so when I came across KristieMN's adorable turtle pattern, I just had to make some! This is my very first attempt at any amigurumi, and he is just cute as a button (not quite as adorable as Kristie's, though), and I can't wait to make a bunch for my friends!

 

 

I didn't have any fiberfill, and couldn't get to JoAnn's tonight, so he's stuffed with leftover yarn.

Well done he is very cute !!!

i stuff some of my dolls and things with left over yarn and the bits that you snip off as you go long ....its cheaper and recycling too

[KristieMN]

Great job!

 

Very clever with using yarn for stuffing!

[Riohnna]

It is adorable!

[pragmatica]

Oh my goodness, that's cute!

[joyfulyarn]

He's so cute! I think I'll go make one....

[01buckler15]

He's a cutie!

 

I just started saving my little left over yarns for that purpus. I might have enough to fill something that size now. But I don't usually make them so small. I'll have to get busy!

That really is adorable. I love how you did the eyes.

Thanks, everyone! Wow, I've had a LOT of people asking me to make them little turtles! I've got to finish making the ones for my friends first, though! Here's the second one I made, in Steelers colors for my friend who's a big fan.

 

[SheriB626]

I know, I know, no one's replied, but I'm just so proud that I got three of these done for my friends, that I just had to show you all!

 

From L to R: Mine, the prototype; Cody's, in Steelers colors; Jason's, in Phi Mu Alpha (music fraternity) colors; Scott's, in regular old turtle colors.

 

Yay!

Aaww! your little turtle herd is adorable! and I love the colors you have chose! Aren't these lil guys addictive to make? They are fabulous! great job!

[Maggitee]

Adorable! I made a few a month or so ago, and they were gone before they were finished. Got to learn to work with the door closed and locked! LOL!

 

GREAT job!

I sewed my turtles head differently...yours looks much better!!!

 

[WeTurnItToEleven]

That's so cute and a great idea for stuffing. I've been saving my bits of yarn for no reason, now you've given me a reason to keep them!

[parisjem]

Terrific turtles, Sheri!! I like seeing them as you progress. You get better and better. They all need names - they are so cute!
