Oatmeal the Blunder Horse

[DollyKim]

From the Annie's Attic Fashion Doll Dream Horse pattern. About the size of a Breyer. Pipe cleaners in the legs. Some day I might make another. The yarn looked mottled not stripy but what's made is made.

Lovely. Gosh, i wish I had skill like that. Amazing!

[DollyKim]

Thank you, it's all done with a single crochet stitch and shaping with increases or decreases. The yarn does the stripes. The legs are made separate from the body then sewn on.

[Calivano]

Fantastic ! Have you ever thought of doing a unicorn?

[DollyKim]

I'd have to figure out how to do the horn, Oatmeal is from a pamphlet.

Would crocheting a long, thinnish triangle in single and sewing it into a cone shape work?

I love the name Oatmeal. :3

Use a seashell for the horn. The various auger shells are perfect. I used to use them as the horns on the stuffed unicorns I made. You should be able to stick it within the stitches from the inside.

Thanks for the ideas for horns.

Oatmeal isn't destined for a horn, it's as finished as it's going to be, but there might be a unicorn in the future.
