Togepi Pattern

Because I like Togepi.

Materials:
Tan and white yarn
Crochet hook, duh (any size, as long as your stitches are tight enough that the stuffing won't show through)
Stuffing
Needle for sewing
Felt/fabric paint in black and white for the face and red and blue for the shell markings
Scissors (don't know why no one ever lists them, but I find them to be extremely helpful)

Shell:
With white:
Round 1: sc 6 in magic ring
Round 2: 2 sc in each (12)
Round 3: sc in next stitch, 2 sc in next around (18)
Round 4: sc in next 2 stitches, 2 sc in next around (24)
Round 5: sc in next 3 stitches, 2 sc in next around (30)
Round 6: sc in next 4 stitches, 2 sc in next around (36)
Round 7: sc in next 5 stitches, 2 sc in next around (42)
Round 8: sc in next 6 stitches, 2 sc in next around (48)
Round 9: sc in next 7 stitches, 2 sc in next around (54)

Sc, hdc, 2dc, hdc, sc, hdc, hdc, 2hdc, hdc, hdc, sc, *hdc, 2dc, hdc, sc* repeat * till end
F/O and stuff

Head spikes (make 5):

Feet:
In tan:

Round 2: 2 sc in each (12)
Rounds 3-5: sc in each
Round 6: dec over next 2 around (6)
F/O, don’t stuff; attach to bottom of shell

Give it a face and shell markings (I suggest doing anything with fabric paint last, because, trust me, it makes a mess otherwise), and unless I forgot something (and if I did, please let me know!), you've got yourself a handmade Togepi!

Pokemon and Togepi belong to Nintendo, not me (sadly). The pattern is mine. Don't try to sell it, or anything made from it, or pass it off as your own. Using it to make gifts or donations for charities/auctions is totally ok.

Sandshrew Pattern!

I made a Sandshrew! I feel like he took FOREVER, but I think that was mostly because I'm just lazy. Anyway, the pattern's relatively easy, except for the start of the head. Any questions, feel free to ask.

Materials!
Yellow, tan and a little white yarn
G hook, or any size that'll keep the stitches tight enough
Some black and white felt
Stuffing
Needle for sewing
Embroidery thread, if you'd like to put those little black lines Sandshrew has on it (I didn't, because I'm too impatient)

Sandshrew and Pokemon belong to Nintendo. The pattern is moi's creation. If you'd like to use it to create a Sandshrew as a gift, or to donate to a charity or auction, that's wonderful, just please don't sell anything you make, and give credit where it's due.

The 'five' key on my laptop doesn't work.

Just thought you'd like to know.

Litwick/Hitomoshi Pattern

I've decided Litwick is my favorite fifth generation Pokemon, so I made one. She's not that big; maybe five inches, from top of the flame to bottom. I also made her shiny, because I had no purple yarn (weird, because purple is my favorite color). If you have any questions, just ask. I don't mind, really.

Materials:
G hook (fun fact: when I looked at my G hook the other day, I realized it's a G/6, which i found to be pretty awesome)
Worsted weight yarn in white, and either light and dark purple or blue, depending on weather you want a normal one, or a shiny one. Also, if you'd like to use thicker/thinner yarn and a bigger/smaller hook, knock yourself out.
Needle for sewing
Yellow felt for eyes
Some black yarn or thread for the mouth
Stuffing



Starting with light purple/blue:
Round 1: 6 sc in magic ring
Round 2: 2 sc in each stitch (12 stitches)
Round 3: sc in next stitch, 2 sc in next around (18)
Round 4: sc in next 2 stitches, 2 sc in next around (24)
Round 5: sc in next 3 stitches, 2 sc in next around (30)
Change to white in last stitch of round 2
Round 6: sc in next 4 stitches, 2 sc in next around (36)
Round 7: in back loops only, sc around
Rounds 8-13: Sc around
Round 14: sc in next 4, dec over next 2 stitches around (30)
Round 15: sc around
Round 16:sc in next 4, dec over next 2 stitches around (24)
Round 17: sc around
Round 18: working in back loops only, sc in next 2, dec over next 2 stitches around (24 front loops, 18 stitches)
Round 19: sc in next stitch, dec over next 2 stitches around (12)

Sl to 1st sl of round 2
F/O

Join yarn to round 7
Round 1: sc in next stitches, 2 sc in next around (42)
Round 2 (top wax drippings): You can get creative with this; I did a combination of single, half double, double and treble crochets, plus two stitches I may or may not have made up: it’s the same as a treble, except you wrap the yarn around three or four times, then draw it through two loops every time.
Sc, hdc, dc, trb, trb+ trb++
Sl to first stitch of round 3

F/O, and attach to top

Attach the eyes, embroider on the mouth, and BOOM. You're done. You have yourself a Litwick. Or a Hitomoshi, if you prefer the Japanese name.
