#41 Zubat


Zubat is combination of a few bat projects that I have patterns for.  I took the body from one and the wings from another.  Zubat is smaller than I originally planned for it to be.  The chenille stem was put into the tails to add stability to them.  Once I finished Zubat, I wished that I had used some floral wire in the wings.

Small amount of Black and White yarn

  2. Hi! Sorry for the random message, I tried finding a more active social for you so I hope you get this. I saw this design in a book on Amazon that isn't published by you so I was wondering if this was a mistake or if someone got permission from you/is paying you royalties for their profit off of your design! Not sure if you were already aware of this, so I just wanted to check in. If it's stolen and you want it taken down, I would urge you to report this as I'm sure the other artists whose works were stolen would appreciate that as well. https://www.amazon.com/Fantasy-Amigurumi-Adventure-Magical-Patterns-ebook/dp/B0C53K7KPS/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_product_top?ie=UTF8
