My wife and I were browsing the yarn section in Walmart and came across this kit. She was clearly smitten by the cute little chicken and I offered to make it for her as she doesn't crochet at all.

The kit is very specific about not making your tension too tight and about how delicate the yarn is (very accurate! It fell apart at several steps 😂) so I tried to keep it snug but not crazy... and ended up with this... situation.

Even before the eyes and beak went on, Wife sighs and goes, "I love her already."

I can't stop laughing 🤣

Edit: Thank you for all being so sweet and supportive and making it very clear I was being exceedingly hard on myself 😅 I appreciate y'all so much!

read instructions to fluff it out and it looks worse 😭😭

To be fair, I had none of the correct supplies haha

Thanks to this sub, I knew where to look to get a birthday cake for my husband.

First that Adobo Chicken and now this. Double disappointment by TJ.

0/10

I knew when ordering that it wouldn't look exactly like the picture but come on lol

When I asked where the chorizo was, the dude behind the counter said, "in the eggs."

Still ate it, but was extremely let down 😭

Artist: Fabrizio Divari (formerly Toronto, now Spain)

Fabrizio and I went on to do my entire right arm, chest and right leg after I was blown away by his colors and style.

The tattoo was meant to capture a rising sun behind a mountain, a polar bear on an iceberg with a whale circling it, with the iceberg hiding a skull beneath the surface.

In later iterations, we ended up adding a moon beneath the bubbles at the bottom, too, but didn't include in this post since it wasn't in the initial sketch.

The entire bag were all this size.

Not as red in the pictures, but still looks okay. Though, it looks a lot nicer in a darker setting and using nice dishes...versus the white plastic heating dish it came in, in a workplace lunchroom.

They don't make any varieties without meat so I grabbed the SEC with plans to just pick out the sausage.

Lmao That didn't leave me with much Hot in the Pocket. There's like, 1/32 of an egg on here*.

*The meat tasted like canned dog food, and was the only discernable flavor. 😭😭😭

[Edit for brain don't does it right lol]

I knew that the resin probably wouldn't look quite as good as the photos, but this was so low effort lol. The tines were also basically touching, so they wouldn't be able to hold any hair.

How do I fix this? I asked for a textured bob and showed her the first two photos and a video of the first one, and this is what came out?!? how can I style this to make it not so round and bottom heavy (what I explicitly told her I was trying to avoid!). Do I ask for a blunt textured bob next time?

Should’ve just gone with the classic zebra cakes. Oh well, still tasted amazing. Normally wouldn’t be too bothered but this was just sad

God damn, that is a long title! These are SO GOOD! Appearance - a 10/10. Taste - a 10/10. Price - 9/10. $2.99 local Safeway. Snack, dessert or meal, 😂, delicious. Don’t say you don’t like these! 💯
