Description
So... first group shot.
All the emoticons I've finished so far. These are the four from the stressball set. That set gave me the idea for the project in the first place.
Doesn't mean I'll stop now. Many more to come.
Full view recommended.
All emoticons I've done so far can be found here: [link]

and 5 others can be found here: [link]

Words can't adequately decribe hoe adorable this is!
FOr the first time, I actually considered knitting something myself. Something you could add to each one a pair of spherical emoticon hands to complete the image.

well, there is an emote with hands in my gallery. I try to be as close to the original emotes as possible. so they'll only have hands, if the originals have them.
(but you're right. the ones with hands do more complete 
and go for it. crafting something (no matter which technique, actually) is really fun and very gratifying. at the end you can say "look, I did that. all on my own."

only the idea to adapt them to crocheted balls... everything else was the idea of others.

just not while sewing the faces to the bodies... the amount of needle stab wounds was really frustrating...

say that to the emotes... to sew on facial parts, sometimes I need to go through the tighter parts of a crochet stitch.
the needle I use is not the sharpest, but all my sharp ones have (that wouldn't have a problem going through any kind of stitch) too small eyes to be useful for stitching with the thick thread I use.
I'll try to use my thimble more often.

Indeed. Otherwise we would be seeing a crocheted finger instead =S

These are great, my girlfriend is gonna love them. I don't know a whole lot about stitching, sewing, and crocheting; but I do know hard work when I see it. Great job!
