~15 month improvement in crochet (and sewing) techniques. Plastic eyes vs felt ftw.
Learned:
-difference between inside-out and inside-in crochet. (I did not reverse my crochet work with older Kero.)
-difference between crocheting under 1 or 2 loops per stitch. (Older kero was made using the 1 loop sc).
-How yarn quality, thickness and color affects the look of the finished product. (I started out using not-so-pretty yarns for practice and to save money heh.)
-How to join legs and sew on appendages nicely and securely. ‘Nuff said.
-How to make bada$$ pom-poms using a contraption from Clover.
-How to stuff plushies so they look nice, not lumpy. Tight crochet work helps.
-How to do invisible decreases.
-I’m too lazy to design the wings.
I used an old favorite pattern for comparison.
