Bananas in pajamas

 Bananas in pajama finally done. It was an order for a baby boy. I never wrote the pattern I tried different every time. One came a little bit bigger head and one has bigger belly. The third one would have been good I reckon. I used different Technic each time to improve it and to sew less each time. I The first one was challenging but the last one I kind of knew what I was doing. Anyway I'm sure the baby boy would love them if  the lady who ordered them doesn't like them my grandsons would. I think I am better following a pattern then making my own. I embroidered the eyes for neater finish. The stripes came better finished the way I've done them.

Banana in pyjamas

My youngest daughter told me that, there is a lady that she knew and she was wondering if I could make her banana in pyjama for her grandson. It is a Tv show for kids. I searched for a pattern but I could not find one so I tried it. The first one came good but the head was abit small. The second one I like the head. I did both of them similar technic. If I crocheted them in continuous rounds the lines would also come in spiral instead of straight lines and I didn't want that. I embroidered the eyes. There is improving in both so maybe third time lucky. I still need to make B2 because I gave b2 to my grandson. The stripes came good I like the reverse side too maybe I should do the other one on the reverse side, I will see.

Sock monkey with the banana

I made this sock monkey from Amigurumi to go. Sharon is very generous to share her patterns for free. I made this monkey a banana and it is not that I don't like sharing patterns, I never get to finish them because if I unpick I will loose track of what I did. I also did less white on the hands and legs and added them in green. I sewed the banana to it's hand so it has moving arms. It could be more fun for little kids to play with.

Forgot to fix the ears
oops!
