I want to hug it @_@

That is totally awesome.

that's so cool! :D

omgadorable<3

this is AWESOME!

Too cool! The tail is awesome. You did a fantastic job with this!

Omigawsh, that's just all kinds of cute o.o

Ha, that is adorable!

I can't wait for my Gypsy to be done!

Oh my gosh. I don't even have words for how seriously awesome this is.

Aaah, this is awesome!
I always wonder how people make these things, do you just make up the 'pattern' as you go or carefully plan ahead?

Pretty much as I go. xD

Amazing

And lots of yarn it looks like!

i cannot even believe how much effort must've gone into this huge guy, WOW ... this is the most amazing ami i have ever seen, i love love love it ... it must've been hard parting with it after so much work!

It really was, hahaha. I gave it to Kitsumi at Anthrocon and while I was really happy for her to finally have it, I was sorta :< because I got attached to it hahaha.

This shows a crazy amount of talent. @.@

Aw thank you so much. <3

Great work! Love that little tongue :)

This is so adorable... great work! ;u;
I love the colours <33

cute nice tail and paws

ffffffffff

that is amazing

Thank youuuu. I hope to play around with some more similarly shaggy animals in the near future. ;D

I hope you do to, this is just too damn cute. I love knitted/crochet stuff, and this little guy is just perfect in that medium <3

*too

I love this one!!! Out of all your animals this one is the best, that tail is just to cool.

oh my god

I never believed in the art of crochet before
but that

is ridiculously cute

You never *believed* in it? Hahaha. D:

I don't know, I just always though that sewing was more efficient, but mannn
you rock those needles bro

oh wow - I can't even begin to guess how long this took! Amazing work, <3 anteaters :)

I see guess who in the background

Most addictive, repetitive game of the 90s.

Wow! This is all kinds of awesome!! Major props to you, you really went the extra mile on this one! I love that tail! and the tongue!

too awsome

Nice! That little guy is adorable, and I can see why you'd charge extra for a tail like that, but you did an amazing job on it. I really like the knit style, it gives your creations of a real folk-art feel to them. I'm broke as a yoke right now, but I'm definitely going to have to keep a commission from you in mind, when I finally get some disposable income. Great job!

oh lord ;n; SO CUUUUUTE

out of curiousity, how much does something like this cost? I don't have any spare cash right now but I definitely want to keep this in mind! :D SO CUTE

My large plushies right now start at $65 -- but after Anthrocon (just as a head's up) they will be pushed up to $80. They go up from there depending on complexity. For example, a fox or dog or something with very little color changes, no complicated markings, etc. would be the base price ($65 or $80 depending on when it was commissioned). Something like this, with a lot of extra "fluff" like the mane and tail would start at $130 because of all the extra time that goes into it. Complicated markings would change things, too. It depends on the animal/character. Don't hesitate to contact me with any questions if you ever need to.

Thanks, btw. :o) This is still one of my favorites.

those prices make TOTAL sense :3 I'm glad you're upping your prices for something that involves this much work! Good for you! I will definitely be getting something from you when I can afford it :3 thank you for the info!

holy shit O.O thats amazing

Why thank you. :D

i cant even a pot holder right XD how in the world you make something that detailed amazes me

Lots of practice, not a lot of a social life. :o)

i want one like this :o

I'd be totally happy to do another. :]

and how many? :o if dont mind the question

Haha, I would be willing to make however many anteaters someone wanted. But they are quite big and time-consuming, for what it's worth. One like this would probably be around $130, so I'm not sure how many would be likely to be commissioned at once. xD

Aw, thank you. :D

See, it's seeing things like that on FA that convinved me to try crochet. I'm still just learning the bascis but I hope to be able to make stuff like that someday. That anteater is amazing! I'm in love with the big toes! :)

He's so gorgeous! I adore anteaters, and this fella is just... wow. Unbelievably cute. The love put in really shows. You've obviously got a fair bit of expertise- he looks absolutely perfect.

THIS IS THE CUTEST THING IN EXISTENCE! Eeeeeeeee!

This is adorable! :D

He's so great! Love his toes ^_^

Omg I definitley want an anteater from you <333
It's so big and huggable looking. Like the perfect cuddle shape
AND THAT TAIL <3333 *watches for sure*
Whennever I ge some extra cash I'mma definintley get something like this from you :3

K-UTE!

amazing

Impressive and totally cute! As a fellow crocheter my hat's off to you on the design!
Also, out of curiosity, how big is it and what yarn did you use?
(and your ad works! That's what drew me in!)

I forget how big it was, because I gave it away to its owner over a year ago. :V But maybe like 16"?

I think I just used Red Heart & TLC. I was less selective about what brands I used back then.

Awesome. Yeah, alot of my older stuff is made out of yarn like Red Heart...now I know better! Once you use the good stuff it's hard to go back!

Oh my goodness that is cute! :)

That is freakin' adorable!!!

Thank you. :]

That's really cool and cute =3

OMG, that's far too cute! ^^

It reminds me of my wife. I LOVE IT!

I want to be bffs with that anteater, it's so cute

Bwaaa, how cute! I flippin love Anteaters! <3 And a plushy Anteater done by crochet? Kudos to you! :D The tail seems like it was a pain to do though.

sorry to ask this question in case it's already been answered, but how did you do the mane? Did you latch hook the yarn into the stitches?

Pretty much!

god I still love this so much ;u;

This is way too cute!

OMG WANT :=~

I would LOVE to make a similar one some time.

DO WANT!! I love anteaters... and wow!!!

I would be happy to make another one some time, if you were interested. :) I may actually on my own some time, I'm not sure, but it's been a long time and I feel like revisiting the design.

I dunno if I could afford it. D:
