I love to feature those Funmigurumi lovers who enjoy making my critters. Some are faithful to the original pattern, others like to impress upon them their own ideas and creativity, giving them a personality that only could come from their hearts and minds. This time we feature the "Whatchamacallits" of Olinda Amtsberg (her term for the Funmigurumis she so graciously shared with all of us.) Enjoy looking at the work of a fellow Ami crocheter and give her a hand, will ya?
