Summer of Pokémon - Shaymin

 Who's that Pokémon? I had never heard of this one, but isn't it cute? I'm really happy with the way it turned out.  I actually think, for once, that mine turned out better than the pattern , or at least as good. © Favorite Little Princess View this post on Instagram Number 14.

Summer of Pokémon - Whooper

 A super quick and easy amigurumi, Whooper was selected based on cuteness (of course) but also because that was yarn I had on hand.  View this post on Instagram Whooper. This one I finished in a day. He’s little, but super cute. #pokemon #crochet #amigurumi A post shared by Deedra Sukrungruang (@favoritelittleprincess) on Jul 23, 2020 at 3:57pm PDT If you are a beginner crocheter, this (free!)  pattern is perfect. It only uses a small amount of yarn and stuffing. My only issue is the "ears". I think using pipe cleaners would help maintain their shape.  Other than that, it's just a small cute little plushie!  We are almost done with Pokémon, but even as I type this, I just finished another one.  I have a feeling that summer may stretch into fall, winter, and maybe spring.  Probably time to start looking into more storage. © Favorite Little Princess

Summer of Pokémon - Snorlax

It wouldn't really be a Snorlax unless it was really big, right? I mean HUUUUUGE! It's a whopping 18 inches tall.  ©Favorite Little Princess This free pattern is from Miahandcrafter  and it's a super easy to follow.  I'm not thrilled with the face part, however.  I think if I were to do it again, I would go up a hook for that part.  It just didn't come out as big as I would like to cover the stuffed areas of the head.   View this post on Instagram Finally fished this monstrous Snorlax at 10:30 last night. The boy loves it. #pokemon #crochet #amigurumi A post shared by Deedra Sukrungruang (@favoritelittleprincess) on Jul 22, 2020 at 5:42am PDT Both dad and boy love to use this monster as a pillow.  It's perfectly plumped for resting on while watching Pokémon on TV. I had to get more stuffing to fill this one out, but it was worth it.  We're down to our last two for the summer - but I'd be lying if I said I wasn't making more.

Summer of Pokémon - Oshawott

 At first, I didn't think I would like this one.  It just seemed to plain and simple.  However, after finishing it, this has become my favorite of all the Pokémon I have made this summer.  @FavoriteLittlePrincess Don't let this kid's face fool you, he loves Oshawott.  He was just hot and tired from running around. We decided to have an impromptu photo shoot at the Schnormeier Gardens . It's only open for one month a year, so we just had to go!  @FavoriteLittlePrincess I'm not sure why it looks so much bigger in his arms here, but Oshawott is the perfect cuddle size. @FavoriteLittlePrincess I don't think mine looks exactly like the picture from the pattern, but it's got it's own little personality. I just love it! WolfDreamer Pattern View this post on Instagram #Pokémon number 11. Oshawott is my favorite so far. It’s super cute. Needed it’s own photo shoot. #crochet #kingdomofra A post shared by Deedra Sukrungruang (@favoritelittl

Summer of Pokémon - Scorbunny

This time it was the man requesting a Pokémon and not the boy.  I had to ask several times who the heck he was talking about because I had never heard of this one before.  Scorbunny is from the new Pokémon Journeys show on Netflix.  Image from pokemon.com I found this pattern on Ravelry from designer Jessie Edwards.  Of course, the face gave me the worst trouble. At least I'm consistent.   View this post on Instagram Scorbunny! #pokemon number 10. #kingdomofra #crochet A post shared by Deedra Sukrungruang (@favoritelittleprincess) on Jun 22, 2020 at 2:21pm PDT Oh well, he's loved and not a total mess. I'll take that as a win. Plus, I've discovered that I really like working with Caron Simply Soft for amigurumis.  It doesn't stretch as much so it holds it's shape better.   Next time - my favorite of the bunch this summer.  Any guesses? You'll just have to wait and see!  Or, if you follow me on Instagram you already know!

Summer of Pokémon - Psyduck

 Poor Psyduck...he always has a headache.  I can relate.  Still, I think it's one of the cutest Pokémon. View this post on Instagram And Psyduck makes NINE. #kingdomofra #pokemon #crochet A post shared by Deedra Sukrungruang (@favoritelittleprincess) on Jun 18, 2020 at 3:20pm PDT Betcha thought I was kidding when I said I got most my patterns from  Wolf Dreamer , huh? Nope.  This is yet another one.  Bodhi likes to click through the patterns while I'm making one so that he can pick out the next one.  It's fine. I've gotten really used to reading these from Wolf Dreamer and I like know what to expect.   Even better when there are few pieces to sew on.  This one worked up super fast, which pleased the boy immensly.  The problem with that is that he thinks all of them should be fast.  Good thing he's cute. Next time I will introduce you to a  Pokémon from the newest series, Pokémon Journeys .

Summer of Pokémon - Eevee

Well, this one is a little cutie.  I'm happy with most of it.  The eyes turned out great, but I'm still iffy on the mouth.  Oh well.  My little Pokémon lover thinks it's perfect so that's all that matters.  © Favorite Little Princess This is another Wolf Dreamer pattern that you can find here . I'm not sure my colors are the same, but I usually just use something close that I have on hand.  I also think the little collar on mine ended up a lot bigger.  Well, maybe just a little bigger.  This was all Red Heart worsted weight yarn and I think these amigurumi's turn out better when I use Caron Simply Soft.   View this post on Instagram Another Pokémon for the spoiled boy. Say hello to Eevee. #kingdomofra #crochet #pokemon A post shared by Deedra Sukrungruang (@favoritelittleprincess) on Jun 8, 2020 at 4:04pm PDT Our temperatures in Ohio have been dropping, so I guess I had better get a move on and finish all my summer posts.  I've been tryi
