Hello, all! By request, this is a pattern for Casey/Bubbles Von Salamancer from Homestuck; I've been wanting to make a new pattern but wasn't sure what until I got this timely suggestion. (I'd forgotten about the Lion King requests until after I'd started on this one - sorry, requesters! You're next, I promise.)



I used 15mm plastic eyes for Casey here; I couldn't figure out a way to truly mimic the bug-eyes of the original art, but I thought this worked pretty well.


Things you need to know: Crochet in the round (spiral), single crochet (sc), double crochet (dc), slip stitch (sl st), decrease ([stitch] 2 tog), increase ([stitch] 2 in 1), popcorn (pop #)

Materials: Worsted weight yarn (light yellow), 15mm plastic eyes, stuffing, scissors, stitch markers (contrasting colored yarn works fine), crochet hook for gauge of 4 dc per inch/2.5 cm (I use 5mm/size "H", but am a tight crocheter; you my prefer to use a smaller hook)

Head/Body
Round 1: Begin in a ring; Dc 12; continue in a spiral
Round 2: Dc 24 (dc 2 in 1 all around)
Round 3: Dc 32 ([dc 2, dc 2 in 1] x 8)
