Tom Turkey Reviewed by Annie Hughes on 2009-11-12
So so so so cute!! I showed the first one I finished to a bunch of friends and was immediately asked to make more!! They all wanted one, two, or five... ;) They do work up very quickly and you can easily make him in a day. I do agree that the legs, beak, and gobble were a little tedious, but anyone who has done any amigurumi knows sometimes you have those kinds of elements in a pattern. Overall the end result is worth the minor frustration of doing rounds consisting of four stitches. The sewing can be tedious but again that is an element of many amigurmi figures. Loved doing this one...very fun and very cute.
