Totoro for William

Friends have recently had a baby boy, William. I like to make something for each new arrival (we've had a rash of babies recently), but don't start until I know they are safely in the world. This is my first proper crocheted 'thing', and I love him- he is a crocheted version of the Studio Ghibli character Totoro, from 'My Neighbour Totoro'- a tree spirit who looks after two little girls whose mum is ill in hospital. It's a lovely cartoon and hopefully this Totoro will keep any eye out for William. The pattern is available free from 'heaven's_hellcat' website.

So gorgeous! I have still not followed a crochet pattern, although I like doing freeform crochet....this is just the sort of thing that makes me think I need to try and do a crochet pattern, looks so brilliant!
