Description First off, this pattern is incomplete.  I was not able to write proper instructions for the tail, just a really rough one that I have posted in my scraps here: fav.me/d74nhwc  I apologize for that, but I hope the notes I have will help!


I don't know if I'm completely happy with how Pikachu's face turned out.. I don't think he looks quite accurate, but it was difficult balancing accuracy with a similar style to the other three.  The ears are floppy on purpose because I like floppy ears  Eyes and other details are needle felted, though I'm sure regular cut out felt or embroidering will work too.   Let me know if you catch any errors!  Hope you guys have a great weekend and happy crocheting!

5.  Sc 5, dec, sc 2, dec, sc 3, dec, sc 5 (18)

Thanks! The eyes are made of roving wool needle felted directly into the work

Have you first sewed the pieces together and then felted the eyes on it?

aphid777 In reply to Campfirefan [2014-02-18 18:46:56 +0000 UTC]

Yes, I assembled everything before working on the eyes

This is so adorable. And lucky for me, I found it just in time for my friend's birthday in a couple weeks, who just so happens to love Pikachu.

Might I ask how much and what type of yarn you used for this little guy and the Charmander? I hope to be able to get to the store this week, and want to be sure I get enough. c:

aphid777 In reply to SyntheticxSound [2014-02-08 21:52:28 +0000 UTC]

Thank you!!  I use acrylic yarn, specifically Red Heart Supersaver brand for both Pikachu and Charmander (I don't remember the exact colors).  They're not too big, so you won't even get close to using a whole skein of yarn.

Thanks! I ended up getting the Daffodil "With Love" from Red Heart, almost done with the body now!

Yayy!  Can't wait to see it!  I'm petty sure that's the color I used too.  Sounds familiar enough at least

MCalhen In reply to ??? [2014-02-05 21:51:33 +0000 UTC]

Those adorable eyes, I cannot resist them! <3

And that floppy ear omfg. It gives this particular Pikachu a very endearing look, like a little lost kitten you have to take home. (I may have been suckered into taking my rabbit home because he has ears EXACTLY like that, and to this day it cheers me up 100% when I see his ears go like that.)

I'm going to have to try this pattern out sometime and make one for myself. Thank you for always being so kind as to share your patterns, it's really awesome of you to type them out and take all that time and effort to share. I know what I'll be doing this summer, maybe sooner. (I still want to try out your chocobo pattern, ahaha, I think I told you months ago I wanted to. But I'm a slowpoke. ;-; )

aphid777 In reply to MCalhen [2014-02-08 21:49:33 +0000 UTC]

Thanks so much!  I liked the eyes, but I wasn't sure if it was fitting on Pikachu  I have a thing for floppy ears too.. Rabbits with floppy ears are just adorable ♥  Always tempts me to take them home even though I'm a cat person :'D


I hope you do get a chance to try my patterns!  And it's understandable, there are always other projects to do and life can get in the way >_<

MCalhen In reply to aphid777 [2014-02-17 17:14:31 +0000 UTC]

I think those eyes look soulful and irresistable, like "take me hoooome and hug me!" And yes, floppy ears are cute so having them on your Baby Pikachu endears it to me. x3 (Ahaha, I'm a cat person but I'm a little more a rabbit person, so I live with both. xD)

I do hope so. Your patterns look so fun and amazing, and I'm sure they ARE. I want to more fun, personal stuff this year if I can manage the time!

magical-chickens In reply to ??? [2014-02-02 14:06:13 +0000 UTC]

For the tail I would probably chain the parts needed and then sew each part separately together so you get the right shape. I would find it too hard to do it in one piece.

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

aphid777 In reply to magical-chickens [2014-02-03 02:52:47 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, I was considering multiple pieces as well.  I ended up doing it in one piece but had no idea how to write out the instructions  Will definitely be a suggestion I give to people having trouble with the tail.  Thanks for the comment!
