Gru, mi villano favorito

Os presento a Anselmo. Anselmo es un minion, como todos estos otros amigos suyos:
Qué majos, eh? Son los personajes de la película "Gru, mi villano favorito". Mi hermana vió la peli y se enamoró de estos bichillos, así que aquí estaba yo para hacerle uno. Afortunadamente encontré el patrón del amigurumi muy rápido, podeis disponer de él de forma gratuíta aquí. Está en inglés, para variar, pero merece la pena el esfuerzo, porque es una monada! 
Este es el patrón:

HEAD/BODY:

Rnd 1: 7 sc in magic ring (7)
Rnd 2: 2 sc in each sc around (14)
Rnd 3: sc in next sc, 2 sc in next sc around (21)
Rnd 4: sc in next 2 sc, 2 sc in next sc around (28)
Rnd 5: sc in next 3 sc, 2 sc in next sc around (35)
Rnd 6-31: sc in each sc around (35)
Begin stuffing at this point. Stuff moderately firmly while shaping. Continue to stuff as you progress.
Rnd 32: sc in next 3 sc, dec over next 2 sc around (28)
Rnd 33: sc in next 2 sc, dec over next 2 sc around (21)
Rnd 34: sc in next sc, dec over next 2 sc around (14)
Rnd 35: dec over next 2 sc around (7)
F/O. Add any stuffing needed to finish out the shaping. Weave tail through final round and tug gently to close up. Secure ends, weave in.
OVERALLS:
Using blue

Rnd 1-5: same as for the Head/Body
Rnd 6-10: sc in each sc around (35)
Do not fasten off at end of round 10.

(now working in rows)

Row 1: Sc next 10 sc, ch 1 and turn (10)
Row 2-6: sc in each sc across, ch 1 and turn (10)
F/O. Weave in ends.

With the newly made panel facing you, from the left side of this panel, count 7 sc around (on row 10 of base of overalls) and attach yarn to the next sc.
Row 1: Sc in same sc as joining. Sc in next 10 sc, ch 1 and turn (11)
Row 2-6: sc in each sc across, ch1 and turn (11)
F/O. Weave in ends.
For the straps of the overalls, Ch 9, sc in second chain from hook and each remaining ch across, (8)
F/O. Weave in ends.

Fit the overalls over the bottom of the body section. Attach straps to the upper corners of each of the panels as shown. (Don't sew the overalls to the body just yet)

ARMS/HANDS:

Beginning at the hand using black yarn:
Rnd 1: 4 sc in magic ring (4)
Rnd 2: sc in next sc, 2 sc in next sc, sc in next sc, 2 sc in next sc (6)
Rnd 3: sc in each of next 3 sc, ch 3, sc in 2nd ch from hook and next ch, sc in each of remaining 3 sc of round (6 sc and 1 'thumb')
Rnd 4: sc in each sc around (hold thumb down to to the front as you sc behind it) (6)
Rnd 5: working in front loops only, 2 sc in each sc around (12)
F/O and weave in ends.

Attach yellow to any free loop from round 5.

Rnd 1: sc in same free loop as joining. Sc in each of next 5 free loops around (6)
Rnd 2-12: sc in each sc around (6)

As you work, stuff the arm lightly to shape but don't overstuff. Continue to stuff as you progress. It's much easier to do this as you go than to try to stuff it after it's done, since the arms are so thin.

Flatten the last row of the arm so that the thumb of the hand will be facing towards the body and pin to body as shown.

FEET (make 2):
(using black)

Rnd 1: 6 sc in magic ring (6)
Rnd 2: sc in next sc, 2 sc in next sc around (9)
Rnd 3-5: sc in each sc around (9)
Rnd 6: sc in next sc, dec over next 2 sc around (6)
F/O. Stuff foot lightly. You just want to give the some some substance and shape, without overstuffing, as you'll want to very slightly flatten the foot to more resemble shoes.

PANT LEGS (make 2):
(using blue)

Chain 11, join to form a ring.
Rnd 1-3: sc in each sc around (11)
F/O. Sew the bottom of the pant leg to the top of the foot/shoe as shown. Stuff the 'leg' moderately firm while shaping. Pin the upper portion of the leg to the bottom of the overalls as shown.

EYES/GOGGLES:

Eye ball (make 2):
Using white:

Rnd 1: 15 sc in magic ring, pull your 'draw string' very tightly to close up the ring (15)
Rnd 2: sc in next sc, dec over next 2 sc around (10)
F/O. Tuck the loose yarn ends into the dome of the eyeball (add a tiny bit of stuffing if you want)
Goggle Rims (make 2):
Using gray:

Rnd 1: 8 sc in magic ring (8)
Rnd 2: 2 sc in each sc around (16)
Rnd 3: working in back loops only, sc in each sc around (16)
Rnd 4: sc in each sc around (16)
F/O. Tuck the eyeball into the 'goggle' as shown. Once you're happy with the look, secure the eyball inside the goggle (I used a sewing needle and some gray sewing thread to do this, so as not to add any bulk to the outside of the goggle rims). Sew the two 'eyes' to each other in a figure 8 shape as shown (a few stitches with that gray sewing thread is good for that as well, as it won't add any unwanted bulk to the goggles)


GOGGLE STRAP:
Using black:

Row 1: chain 28 (check this to make sure it's the right length to go around the head and attach to each
side of the 'goggles', add or remove chains as needed).
DC in each chain across (again, check this for size before F/O, and adjust as needed)
F/O and weave in ends. Sew the strap to either side of the goggle rims as shown.

ASSEMBLY:

Fit the overalls over the body as shown and pin in place. Pin arms as shown (this minion's arms reach about to the bottoms of the feet). Once you're pleased with the positioning of the arms (thumbs to inside of each hand), sew in place. Sew overalls in place.

Attach legs to bottom of overalls, sew securely in place.
Place goggles over the top of the head and position as desired, once you're happy with the placement of the goggles/eyes, sew securely in place.

Cut two small circles of black felt and either sew or glue in place on the eyeballs.

For mouth: On this minion, I just used some of the yellow yarn, and whipstitched around one row of sc for a few scs to create the 'pouty' lower lip and then took a large stitch across the top and slightly below the 'lip' to create the shape. Tug very gently on this large stitch to create the look of the mouth.

Hair: I cut several strands of black, and tied in the middle with another strand. I folded the 'bundle' in half to create the 'shock' of hair and sewed this in place to the middle of the top of the head.

The insignia on the overalls is made by cutting a circle of black, and a square of the blue … the blue square is placed in the center of the black circle and glued in place then a smaller circle is glued to the center of the blue square and placed on the overalls in the center front as shown.

Y ya sabeis, si algo no se entiende, preguntad!

El Conejo Malvado


Que cara de malo, ¿eh? Luego en realidad es un buenazo, pero es que el pobre es un poco feucho. Que no, que no, que no es feo. Es gracioso. Cuando le estaba bordando la cara estuve tentada de dejarle con un solo diente, porque quedaba de lo más gracioso a lo Cuñao . Pero ya lo que le faltaba, ja, ja! Nunca había hecho un amigurumi cuadrado, pero es más fácil de lo que pensaba. 

El patrón lo he copiado de este blog, donde teneis una versión grande que utilizan como alfiletero, que es la que he hecho yo, y una más pequeña, para llevar el muñeco como colgante en el bolso, tal que asi:

Espero que os guste, este amigurumi es muy rápido de hacer!

Os pongo a continuación el patrón de la versión grande (en inglés, lo siento. Pero os ayudo en lo que necesiteis!!)

Regalo de Reyes

EDITADO: He cambiado los enlaces de Megauload por RapidShare

Sorpresa!!! Como regalo de reyes, pongo para que podais descargar gratis todos los libros de amigurumis que he ido recopilando en estos dos meses. En algunos casos es imposible saber el nombre original,  asi que vereis que alguno me he tenido que inventar. Si alguien tiene alguna reclamación de copyrights, que me lo comunique, que sin problemas lo quitaré de aquí. No son libros ni revistas que yo haya escaneado,  si no que los he encontrado de forma gratuíta en otras páginas, por eso entiendo que no debería haber ningún problema. Si algún enlace no funciona o me he equivocado, decidme por favor para que lo arregle, ok? 
Empezamos!!!
