Did I create…. A monster?

Edit: Latest message with images of the fix

Hey guys! I’m currently working on new patterns, pattern editing, personal projects, etc. and I think I missed the mark on this one :sweat_smile:

Here is the adorable drawing given to me by @Centara

And here is my abomination:

steel yourself


without the duck


just the duck


Cen and I discussed some things about it with the weird shaping and all :laughing: we even discussed adding eyes

with eyes

But it definitely doesn’t make it any better :sweat_smile:


What do you guy think? Should I add eyes? Or should I just scrap the idea completely and just make a pattern for the duck (that looks somewhat like a chicken)? :joy:

Any opinions, support, and ideas would be helpful! :two_hearts: thank you in advance! :melting_face::heart_hands:t2:

I don’t think it needs eyes. (Not the lower eyes please. They made me laugh out loud)

It is precisely what the kid asked for….

I thought it looked good.

You’ve created a monster. But a really cute one. I would place the eyes just above where you expand to make the mouth. So between the two eye placements you have shown. I think it’ll be really cute tbh.

Huh it looks a lot like the drawing, I can’t really tell what went wrong…to me it just looks a little too tall and not wide enough? Just my opinion, but the chick looks so adorable!

Id make the spines stick out more.

If you do add eyes, put them right as the face turns up.

I think it looks great as is! You could always add the options of eyes in the pattern if someone would like to do that. Regarding duck vs chick, there seems to be a fine line in the crochet world

Haha. Thank you :smiling_face:

It definitely made me laugh when I placed them on the face :rofl:

I’ll definitely try to add them there and see how I feel about it. Thank you!

That’s what I’m thinking now. Thank you :blush: I just kind of went with the flow when making it :joy:

Ah. Yes. That makes sense. Thank you!
