Hi there!

So, you must love Garfield too, right? I hope you like his Pooky! Read on if you want to know where to find the pattern and what I changed about it.

What?
Pooky is the teddy of Garfield, the big orange, lasagne loving cat. As you can see in the last picture, this Pooky is Monster approved ;)

Why?
I made him for the 30th birthday of my brother. He is going through a rough time at the moment, I hope this will cheer him up a little.

How?
I found this pattern of Pooky by Evelyn. She is an Amazing crochet artist (so just look at it, it is really inspiring!) This is the website for the pattern: http://aphid777.deviantart.com/art/Family-Photo-312792882

I really love the work that Evelyn does, but some details just weren't as I wanted them. She used felt for the eyes, nose and ears, I crocheted them. I also changed the paws to make them look more like the real Pooky.

Just let me know if you want to make the same changes I made, but if you can't figure out how to crochet them.

I hope you like this Pooky as much as I do. I really hope my brother likes it too.

Xxx,
Cindy
