The Birth Of Mr. Wonkey

I was actually in quite a crochet mood tonight, so I decided to get some stuff made for the craft stall I'm doing at Christmas. I need to make some Monsties (about 10) that I can bundle into a big bowl and sell.

So I started one. Then I thought 'Wouldn't it be weird to have a multi-coloured Monstie?'. I've never made or seen one before so I gave it a go. I then thought I'd give him different sized eyes. I've recently bought some lovely safetly eyes from 6060 on Etsy, and have been trying out different sizes (They are great eyes btw - I ordered some more a minute ago).

I was almost finished with him when I noticed his legs were totally different sizes. I was gonna frog him, but felt kind of sorry for him so I decided to make a 'Wonkey Monstie'. This is him in all his wonkey glory:



Bless him!! His left leg is a full 3rd smaller than his right, his mouth is on wonkey, he has different sized eyes and he's all randomly stripey! I like him - I kind of don't want to sell him! I think I will be making more Wonkey Monsties! <3
