Monterey Cat

A cat with a difference? Very cute, anyways...

Edited: 
Okay,  the reason this cat looks so different is that it is actually an otter.  :P

Amigurumi S'mores

I have never had s'mores, since they're not really an Aussie thing.

However, my curiosity is getting the better of me since I saw this gorgeous little fella at Rachel's place the other day.

I might have to have a go at something kind of un-Australian and see what they're like...

The Owl with Fried Egg Eyes

The huge, round eyes on this amigurumi owl remind me of a couple of fried eggs, so I'd have to use another colour instead of burnt orange for the irises.
How about brown?

Amigurumi Baby Bird Mobile

This baby bird mobile is absolutely gorgeous, and even though we don't have any babes in our home anymore (and won't, either), I'm very tempted to make one anyway.
