Love this guy!! I’m slightly obsessed with him in the game so I just HAD to make one. Turned out awesome!! With just a few minor changes.
I did NOT stuff the arms. It wasn’t mentioned to stuff or not so I started by stuffing and then pinning in place. They were waaaaay too bulky. Made it look like Psyduck works out haha. So I took out the stuffing and it was perfect. The arms can either lay flat or be squished to puff out a bit. I also sewed them on along round 9 and way down at the bottom
Two things with The Beak. Firstly, it mentions removing a stitch marker but there was no mention of were to place the marker in the beginning. I found that the marker should be placed at the first stitch of every round. It worked for me. Second, I found the beak to be waaay too big. So what I did was take out 1 chain in the very beginning. So Round 1 started with ch8 and ended with 16 sc. Everything else is the same except that there is one less sc when there’s a few in a row. So Rounds 3,4 and 6 has 5sc instead of 6. Round 7 had 4sc instead of 5.
On The Eyes I added in a black french knot BEFORE sewing onto the head. It worked out a lot easier.
The Feet really freaked me out. They looked super weird and I did not get why they were little tubes at all. I did Rounds 1-5 as written. But I finished them like The Arms. Instead of doing a row of sc to close it I just made the toes/fingers through both layers at the same time. I then sewed them on flat on the bottom/underside of him
I added a 5th round to The Tail so it would look more like the game. It went like this: 2sc, 2sc inc, 2 sc (8)
This was my first time using the cord technique for hair. And I ABSOLUTELY LOVED IT!!!! Definitely going to be using this way whenever I can!
