#original pattern

Finally got some proper photos of my Iruka doll

thinking about making it a pattern/getting some pattern testers but there were so many different types of yarn i worked with, and the eyes were 3d printed and dont hold properly because the back parts broke T-T

This finished piece is the outcome of four others that found their home in the trash. Try, try, try again. The idea for it came to me on the verge of sleep—how it always goes, right? Definitely one of my favorite hoops so far. It’s hard to capture it correctly, but you’ll just have to take my word for it.
