It's been almost 6 months since I've touched a crochet hook! I'm so pleased that I've finally managed to tear myself away from all that's been keeping me away to make some gifts for a few special friends of my son.
It was a request I couldn't resist -- make an amirugumi version from the drawing of a cat. This cat had a unique feature, a tuft of blue fringe. The timeline was also tight -- 2 days! Yep, there was definitely plenty of rumaging through 'my secret stash'. Using whatever I had on hand, this amigurumi of "Jayz" was made in time to be presented to the young artist. I'm so glad she liked it!
(Can you guess what I spent the most time on? The hair! I definitely felt like a hair stylist, trying to tease and shape the yarn to make it as soft and tousled looking as I could.)

'Jayz' was made based on a pattern by DDs Crochet which can be found here: http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/colorful-kitty-cat-doll-toy
Once started, can't just stop at one. So I made some others for her friends.
