Angelic Sheep + Punk Sheep + Totoro (again)

Well, the pain of studying is really kicking in now.  I did get a chance the other day to snap some photos of the sheep though, as well as a new tiny white Totoro I made last weekend.

Still no etsy.  If the conversion rate for the day is 0.96 USD = 1 CDN... Visa gives me 0.92 or 0.93 USD.  It's not that bad I guess.  But I say that only because the exchange rate is pretty high right now.


Angelic mama and angelic baby
These two were one of the first sheep I ever made.  It doesn't take long to crochet, but there's so many parts that it takes a while to sew together.  They're rather understuffed, so I'll need to take them apart some day and put in some more stuffing.


I'm not really sure why I'm calling them angelic sheep, apart from that they're white.  It's a rather fanciful (but adorable) image - fuzzy sheep with a glowing halo and little wings.  The feedback I've gotten about these ones was that they're cute and good for traveling but not super cuddly.  I'll have to think about rewriting the pattern and making a bigger one. 


Punk sheep, in your face
Then there's punk sheep.  I only call him that because his fur is sticking up everywhere and his bangs are rather askew.  Despite his messy, stand-offish appearance (and his general dislike of other sheep), he's really quite cute and kind. 


Then there's the totoro.  He looks quite at home under the trees and keeping an eye on the people in the little house.  All he's missing is an acorn (it IS acorn season but I don't want a squirrel running off with acorn + totoro).


I've actually finished off the blue totoro.  I'm not completely satisfied with the way he turned out so I haven't gotten a photo of him yet.


Both totoros were made using heaven-hellcat's pattern.  Take a look at my first totor post for the link.
