Finally finished Bailey's BabyBot!
There were definitely some issues with this little bot....
You can see that the body didn't end up exactly square and the legs/feet turned out larger then they were supposed to.
But I still think it's pretty cute! And tiny.
It's been a lot of fun to learn more about amigurumi, though I think it takes a bit more patience than I generally have!
For anyone else wanting to try this type of crochet project I would suggest picking up a good book or searching for beginner tutorials on the web. I would also recommend not worrying too much about size and making them a little larger at first (by using a larger size crochet hook). The smaller they are the more difficult they are to make. This one was made with a size C2 crochet hook and it was definitely a challenge!
Thankfully, my three year old doesn't care at all about perfection. She just wants a little bot to love, and I'm more than happy to oblige.
super cute bots! Makes me want to learn to crochet ~ but one crafty obsession at a time ;)
