what about those squishy pencil grips? i need to find some, my thumb is hurting too. i try to buy pre-cushioned hooks... but my G-hook doesn't have a grippy...thus, i hurt. anyhow, i think pencil grips would work... sweatdrop

Unfortunately, the hook I'm using is C2/2.75mm. Waaaay too small for any grippies I have. gonk

[NuttyLikesCandy]

@Dig: It's totally on my list too!!!

@Coralle: Maybe try duct or masking tape?
Better than nothing!
[OMG WRAP FUN FUR AROUND IT!!! XD ]

[Niczilla]

all of my amis are BLO. ^___^
thanks everyone for the super rad congrats! ehehe.

maybe you could tape some foam onto it?

[OhNoesItsMiho]

Foam sounds good. My hook thingy for my looms has a grip, but my finger still hurts even with the grip >_<;; Also, my cupcake makes me sad. I guess it's a mushroom now lol. I didn't sew the top on yet so I can still fix it, but I'm not sure how to fix it.

[diginya]

your mushroom cupcake is so cute! maybe he looks like a mushroom because he's black and red? i dunno...i like 'em though. heart

[OhNoesItsMiho]

Yeah, that's probably why lol. I'm having loads of fun embroidering! DX I'm obsessed!!! I'm glad you like it!! ^_^ I added the little guy to my DA and SA. I don't know what else to make now.

[CrochetedHeart]

Aw, your little mushroom cupcake is adorable! I love the way you did the face *nodnod*
I wanna make a cupcake now..... (amigurumi I mean, I dun even like real cupcakes/cake)

[OhNoesItsMiho]

>.< My real cupcakes end up looking like mushrooms, too lol I'm glad you like my ami 3nodding

[Coralle]

Thanks for all the ideas to use for grips. blaugh Hopefully my thumb won't bruise now. lol

Wonderful little cupcake, Miho! I think you should make him some friends. 3nodding
My cupcakes never turn out well. That's probably why I never make them anymore. (both baking and ami) sweatdrop

[OhNoesItsMiho]

Lol, awww. >-> I don't bake cupcakes anymore, either. They would crumble apart or they would be hard. I was going to make a lady bug next, but I forget how to join! I'm glad you like my cupcake, though. -^-^- I'm off to find tutorials!

[MrsSunShineFace]

To Nutty: You like creepy cute? Thats cool, do you work with a magic ring or ch2 sc 2 ch from hook? I dont get the magic ring!!! I need to look up a tutorial for that probably. I also found her patterns a little difficult to read as well, so im probably just bais cause im used to the easy stuff. lol. whee


A question for the corchet peeps out there. Im working on my hedge-hog project and i am having a terrible time with the "prickly coat" im working according to Amigurumi world pattern, i just dont like how the prickly coat looks and was wondering if anyone had any other ideas/patterns for a prickly coat. I have thought about continuing the pattern and then later just brushing it out with a wire brush. Idk sweatdrop any and all suggestions are welcome.
