A crafting venture close to my heart!

My first blog will start as I mean to go on, so here is my latest venture in the world of craft. Totoro! My Neighbour Totoro is a beautiful, simple and scrummy film by Studio Ghibli and is slowly taking over my life! I found this pattern online and thought WANT! So as is my way I jumped in feet first with not the first clue about how to crochet! Armed with YouTube tutorials and my lovely mum I was on my way!
I was both pretty chuffed and surprised with stage one! 
And then he got ears!
Just 2 arms, a tail and a tummy to go! I'll post up the finished goods, heres hoping he'll turn out well enough to earn a place on our bookcase!!
And most important of all, the lovely link that gave me this idea

Good luck to anyone who gives it a whirl. I would love to see the results!
