no it’s all good, i’ve been enjoying it :rofl: , just taking the time to paint again :heart: just a little concerned about the black yarn situation too:rofl: it’s also coming to terms of untangling a yarn hank :face_with_spiral_eyes:

What an amazing idea! I love his size and dimension! I would make him in chenille/bernat weighted yarn- definitely some color alteration like light purple, dark purple and black or other similar variations. I’m ready for however big he ends up being and completely comfortable with the stitching requirements in the post :purple_heart:

Do you know (approx) how much yarn he uses? I really really want to test him but i’m not sure I have enough yarn…
Hopefully I can test your smaller pattern! :crossed_fingers: :face_holding_back_tears:

I really wish I weighed the skiens before and after, but I didnt really realize how big he would end up being…

But if I had to guess for the black parts:
Bernat blanket - almost a whole skien (75g ish?)
Normal velvet - 40-65g ?
Acrylic (weight 4) - 30-40g ?
Baby velvet (weight 4) - 10-15g ?

All these are guesses, he is about the same size as pudge (my dragon) and a few people had to get more yarn for him (all of them using a chunky yarn). Althoigh the number od sts per round on toby is less most of the time… I think… It also depends on what size hook you end up using.

Thank you! I’ve been thinking about making him in those colors in some fur yarn… just haven’t quite convinced myself yet :sweat_smile:
