Pooh & Friends

[FelixLake]

The gang's all here!!!! Finally I have them all done. Now, what am I supposed to do? I've ordered some teddy bear patterns but they are not here yet.

These were done using a Leisure Arts book "Pooh & Friends Crochet". I used worsted weight yarns and mostly a size G hook. There were such fun to put together. Now I just have to find a place to keep them until I have grandchildren. Oh, I have to make another Tigger for my daughter (the Marine), she fell in love with it.



Enjoy!http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y228/FelixLake/PoohFriends.jpg

WOW, those are awesome!! I have that book but I have yet to attempt to make any, I think it is time to get the book out and try!:)

[FadedBlue]

Great job!
I've been wanting to get that book just for the Eeyore. I loves Eeyore!

[sjkmaurice]

Aren't you ambitious! Those are so cute. Makes me want the pattern, too! My neice likes Winnie the Pooh stuff.

[thefishie]

Those are awesome!!! Are they difficult? I skimmed through a Pooh pamphlet awhile ago and went away a little intimidated. :(

[Chiscrochetcrazy]

Wow those are so awesome great job :cheer I have really got to try these again I tried pooh and the leg gave me fits:thair :irk but I know if I worked at it I could figure it out.

[diamond]

Those are awesome!! Really cute! Great job!

[Kimberly]

Wow!! Those turned out beautifully! They are so cute! Were the patterns easy to follow?

[Empress Busy Bee]

Just too cute. I love love Eeyore. :yay

[Sue89]

Eeyore! I love Eeyore. Poor little depressed guy!

They all came out fantastic. Great job! :clap

[123mama]

You did a fine job on all of them.:manyheart

[Brie]

Those are awesome! I :manyheart piglet, he's always been my favorite.

[FelixLake]

For all those who are interested. The patterns were not that hard to follow. The secret is just counting carefully. It's all just single crochet and slip stitches.

The Pooh leg was confusing, but if you just realize that you have to skip the chain between the single crochet behind the leg, then it makes sense.

If anyone has any questions, feel free to ask me, now that I've figured it out, I'd be more than happy to help others. Believe me... I frogged the legs more than once trying to understand the directions. I also actually had nightmares over those legs.

[Colyak Crocheter]

Those are adorable! Very nice work. :bow My younger son was absolutely nuts about Pooh when he was little. So is my niece and she's 24!

[yarngal]

They are soooo cute! I love them all.. especially eeyore!

[sharoninseattle]

What a good job you did, you are very talented and patient. They are so cute and loveable. :manyheart

[rsisland]

great job ! I love them all ! :clap :cheer

[vernzap]

Great job! they are as cute as can be!:yay

[sunshine1977]

How cute! You did an awesome job!:clap

[mythunderbird]

you did a great job on them. the reason some of you have had the problem with phoo's leg, is that the pattern was off, leisure arts put a different one out later because of the discovery. if you have the old pattern(the one which is messed up) maybe you can e-mail them and they can give you the correct pattern. i need to make some of those too, i love phoo and piglet and eyeore, but tigger is my favorite. ti double grrrrrrr LOL graetjob again :manyheart vicki

[earthwhisper]

Wow, those are really cool! I have never tried to make an animal.

[Ally]

Wow! You did a great job on all of those!!!

[faithpa76]

[sem464]

You did such a great job!:c9

[Chiscrochetcrazy]

When I tried and tried to make Pooh and got so darn frustrated with his leg I emailed them several times and asked what am I doing wrong and they tried to tell me there's no problem with the pattern :think But they did try to explain the leg instructions better for me. I have to say if the pattern was wrong and other people had trouble too it makes me feel so much better :) I thought there was something wrong with me. I hate to be happy other's had problems but gosh darnit I knew there was something wrong. Now I'm irritated that they didn't look at it then and say the pattern is wrong , here's the corrections:irk Instead led me to belive I can't read a pattern not cool people :angry Stepping down now:soap

Kinda funny how Pooh & his Friends caused such a contraversy :lol

[rebeccav]

those are such FUN:yay

i just :manyheart em!!!

[FelixLake]

Alisha,

You're right about the controversy. I emailed them myself and they said that the instructions were correct as written. They then sent me a page explaining the instructions. I never read the email instructions, but finally figured it out myself in one of those 'A-Ha' moments.
What I found funny is that each character had a different way of attaching the legs/arms/etc. It's like someone different wrote each pattern (which they probably did). Anyway, the instructions were correct, they just did a bad job in explaining the directions. Illustrations would have been great.

[Chiscrochetcrazy]

By the time I got the explanantion I was so fed up I couldn't make myself try again, and by now I'm sure I've thrown away the pieces of Pooh I had started on.I plan to try again & if I have any questions I'm asking you :)


You have inspired me to try again :hug

[YaYa Yarnhood]

Oh wow, they are too cute! Very nice work! Did they have a heffalump pattern? :wink :wink

[AngrySnail]

I have been trying to find an eeyore pattern here in aus.. cause my friend is obsessed with him.. but haven't had any luck. Will look up that book though!! Gorgeous!!

Belinda.

Somewhere somebody did the ones in thread in worsted and said they worked up fine, actually they said the patterns were less confusing.

Do you mind if I ask what yarn you used for Eeyore? The booklet calls for blue/violets, but it looks like you used grays?

Thanks,
Jennifer

[FelixLake]

Thanks again all.

They were quicker to do than I thought they would be. The hardest part was deciding which one to do first.

[Mel2nsluvsCrochet]

A donkey named Eeyore is his friend...and Kanga and little Roo...there's Rabbit and Piglet, then there's Owl....but most of all there's Winnie the Pooh... lol
My dd loves the move Heffalump and of course the classic: The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh. We do have the heffalump movie but I can't find the adventures of winnie the pooh. :( My favorite out of the whole bunch is T-I double GRRR....the wonderful thing about tiggers is tiggers a wonderful thing, their heads are made out of rubba, their tails are made outa springs....their bouncy, flouncy, trouncy sprouncy fun fun fun fun fun, the wonderful thing about tiggers is I'M the only one, yes I'M the only ONE

Ahem...I think I better go home now.....:embar

Oh btw: I love the animals...I haven't even attempted to make them yet...

[Bohemia]

I have just made a post to find somebody to finish eyeore... i am stop to put the legs to the body... could you help me please ?

Bohémia

[Monique39]

awwwww they are all so cute!

[whatchacraftin]

I'm so glad this got bumped! I have a friend that just did her son's nursery in a Pooh theme and I've been eyeing that pattern book. The finished product looks so good, I'm going to have to give it a shot. I guess the book is out of print, but there are several on Ebay. I hope I can figure out how to attach the legs. It seems like that's stumped a lot of people.

[suze3105]

awwww...

thay are so adorable!

[jacob'smommy]

they look great.

[misssmaggie]

They are adorable !!! Thanks for sharing !!!

[dizzy]

I have the pattern book in thread and it took a few minutes to figure out how to do the legs. i have pooh done and then I set it aside. I think I will have to bring them out again and get the rest done.

You did a fanastatic job!!!

[Lubba_my_kiddos]

Great Job! I've made the Tigger out of the book and I want to finish all of them! Hopefully mine turn out as good as yours!

[cher49]

[rolling_backpack]

I love em! I've made all but Tigger. Who doesn't like Pooh and his friends?! Good job

[Elle]

Oh WOW! You did a totally awesome job on those! They turned out SO WELL!!

[peggytoes]
