Notes

I wanted to try out the Mini Alien pattern, so I used some acrylic sock yarn I picked up on clearance a while back (I liked the colour and thought it’d be good for doll clothes and other tiny things, like this little one). Mine turned out super tiny since I used such fine yarn and small needles - it’s only just over an inch tall. I had some green stuffing, so I used that instead of white stuffing to help keep it from showing around the bobble and at the top of the head.

I wanted to give this pattern a shot so I could get a feel for it. I tried the flat version, not the circular version, and I wish I had sewn on the sequins I used for the eyes before I did the seam down the back. XD It’d have been easier to get them neat and symmetrical. (They’re a little off as-is.)

I think I definitely would like to make more, although perhaps in a bigger size for at least some of them. XD
