Notes

I was very excited when I was offered to test this cute little Sherlock, i couldn’t resist!
Thank you Siljec94 for choosing me as your tester, i’m very proud :D


  • I used 6mm silver plastic safety eyes, as Sherlock has very clear eyes, sometimes blue, other times green or even gray.
  • a Sherlock without curly hair is not Sherlock! I simply crochet a square with the brown yarn (hold double as my yarn was thin), and blocked it (soak and let it dry for 1-2 days). Then, i frogged the square and i got a curly yarn. I cut it in long tails (5-6cm), then i crochet them as tassels. Once done, i gave him a haircut.
  • I added a small coin at the bottom of the body, before stuffing, so he can stand.
  • The purple yarn is my very first dyeing experiment, and i’m very satisfied. It’s pretty close to the PSoS color.
