🎉100-FOLLOWER PROJECT-THROWBACK DAY 1: "Kawaii Potato" (Character by Emily's Diary/@theshunbun, Pattern by Amyula). Swipe LEFT for pictures of the ones I'd made back in 2015! . Remember this little potat? Well, I had a bunch of friends who were equally as soft and kawaii, I was an enthusiastic beginner crocheter, I had just found the pattern online (which is sadly gone now huhuhu) and I had wanted to give them a gift. I think you can figure out what happened after 😅. . If this pattern taught me anything, it's that look for exact yarn shades that are also affordable and accessible for beginners like me to use is HARD AF. The peach yarn I eventually used for the octopuses (yes, it's correct, I checked) made it look like a sunburned toe or something, and the Monaco peach yarn I got was actually flamingo pink and made it look like a finger 😂. And I had both 1 DOZEN 18g skeins for EACH. SHADE. To this day, I have not consumed any of the flamingo pink and am still waiting for a project that I might need it for. So unless you trust the color of the yarn through your phone/computer/tablet screen, be careful when buying yarn remotely/not in-person. Or, if you're sending someone to buy it for you, please give them the EXACT SHADE CODE and DON'T rely on color names unless there is no shade code given at all. This was a hard-hitting lesson, but, well, it also taught me resourcefulness. The two pictured above, were requested to not include the blush (idk why either haha), but I normally used my tinted lip balm to give it its signature flush, since I was 15 and we had no lipstick at home. . Have you had any yarn-buying mishaps or color-matching struggles? Feel free to share in the comments below, and see you all again tomorrow! . Pattern used: Kawaii Potato Amigurumi by Amyula . Materials used: Rose Acrylic Yarn (Peach), Monaco 4ply Acrylic Yarn (Shade # 100), Safety Eyes from @yarnsph (10mm), Polyfiber filling. . #crochet #crochetersofinstagram #amigurumi #kawaiipotato #amyula #emilysdiary #theshunbun #handmade #craftersofinstagram #crochetgram #yarn #artistsoninstagram #gantsilyogang #gantsilyo #gantsilyoph #gantsilyophilippines #handmadewithlove https://www.instagram.com/p/CFtJ_vRhjwe/?igshid=1f7xe187jdku8
