New Year, new project

Recently the 'Creative Collective' announced the January challenge, which I mentioned in a previous post. So I took up the challenge, and produced my very first amigurumi robot.

I received for Christmas 'Crobots 20 Amigurumi Robots to Make' by Nelly Pailloux. Such a cute book. In the past I have only crocheted granny squares, and I have never learnt much else. So I decided I had to leave my comfort zone and take the plunge to learn new stitches and learn how to read a pattern.

Well I did it!

Now I'm a little addicted, I'm onto my next one.
