Recently my step sons had to move away, and since I hope they are coming to visit us over the Christmas holidays I have been thinking of crocheting them something. I think handmade items say so much more then store bought things. Everybody can go out and buy something, but to sit down, take time and make something that truly comes from the heart, it is so rare these days.
As you can see it is a Spongebob, my youngest step son is a big fan of this yellow squared underwater monster, so I thought I will make him a pillow pal. It isn't really hard to make a Spongebob, since he is a square with pants.
The eyes, eyelashes, mouth, teeth, and tie was not that hard to crochet, the feet and arms, well, I took those from my doll patterns, and they fit.
Then I sewed everything together and stuffed him with polyester fiber. He is bigger then I thought, which I guess is good since it is supposed to be a pillow.
Look at this face! Who could not love this handmade pillow pal?
Did u have a pattern?
