It was fast to crochet, but it was the felted parts that took the longest to cut so that they were just right and sew on.
Part of a group of nintendo characters I gave Tom for Christmas.
The goal was to make Bob-omb, but I wanted to change up the pattern from Linda Potts (who is brilliant btw) so I needed experience crocheting toys, which I had never done. I worked my way up, and when I completed this one I knew I was ready.
