Deviousness |
I did wash him - just the once - and gave him over to the tender mercies of my twin 4 year old nieces.....
I have not heard anything since. Which could be bad. Or good....
I do recognize the plushie (my mother buys many amigurumi patterns. I swear she has every single one out there on the internet. It's a HUGE collection and I'm not exaggerating.) Would you like me to try to find the pattern?
There's nothing new under the sun, so I'm sure that there's a pattern out there that completely describes what I did - so if I've shamelessly lifted someone else's pattern verbatim, I'm sorry!
If that's so, then why are you interested in finding a pattern to give credit to?
I was wondering about the parentage of the yarn I used - especially the mad purple/pink eyelash stuff for the mane and tail. I'd love to know what the yarn is called, so I can buy more of it!
Sadly, I'm not very good at keeping records of where and when I get my yarns, and as I often get them from thrift stores and yard sales, they frequently have no labels on them - hence the difficulty in knowing the manufacturer...
I would never knowingly use someone else's pattern for anything, and not credit them.
Okay, I thought you just couldn't remember the pattern you got this from and who you could credit to.
This makes a lot more sense.
I'm sorry for the confusion I've caused the both of us.
Though, in all seriousness, I would never, ever make something from someone else's pattern and pretend that its mine. I've had some trouble myself with plagarism, so I would never knowingly subject someone else to it
Though, I guess we all have the problem that all toys/amigrumi are basically just spheres/ellipses/cylinders made of yarn and sewn together in various ways....
I guess there's an Ur-Originator out there somewhere in history, but darned if I know who it is or when they first did it....
I hope you know that I wasn't accusing you of copyright or plagiarism. That is definitely not what I was trying to accomplish and I'm sorry if I sounded that way.
I thought you meant that you had followed a pattern but then had lost it when you were finished with the plushie and wanted to know if anyone knew which pattern you had worked from.
Which is my bad, since I read about this when it was late at night.
But I'm glad we cleared this up.
