My second amigurimi is Bella, the bumble bee. This one was made for my granddaughter Nevaeh when she was around two years old. It is about 14 inches in height and 5 inches in width, I used acrylic yarn with a 5.0mm hook for this one. It took me about 8 hours to complete, It’s quite challenging when it comes to crochet the black yarn area, I simply can’t see the stitches. Because it’s black in colour and you can’t really tell what you are crocheting. And when you lost a stitch, you are in trouble. You have to crochet by feel, not by look.
Nevaeh loves her bumble bee, she kept it in her crib and sleep with her every night. I try to create a name for all the toys I made, which made it more unique and personal. I feel every kid should have at least one favourite toy to grow old with. That is a priceless memory.
I got this pattern on the internet, and alter a bit on the pattern, I used different colour yarn and change thing up a bit. Oh and I designed a purple bow to add a touch of cuteness. I used a safety eyes but it’s safely fasten at the back that it won’t come loose and it’s child proof. I used a strand of red thin yarn to sew on the mouth. I decided not to give her a nose, I find that’s more cute without one. Two set of wings on each side, the top pair is bigger then the bottom pair. That’s all about Bella for now - I’ll see you at the next post!
