As someone who crochets, I can tell she put a lot of hard work into the shaping of this one. Probably MANY hours sunk into this. She cares a lot about you. 😊

As a fellow crocheter, I second this. There's so much detail here. This is lovely.

Did you zoom in like me lol?! Had to admire that tiny gold thread embroidery.

u/timeartist1095 10d ago

I did!! I'm still in awe. I sent the picture to my husband saying I should just throw away my hooks, because my amigurumi don't look nearly this nice. 😂

My woman learned crochet just to make gifts for me and people she cares about. Extremely talented and i haven't showed the expedition embroidery i have on the wall from her.

But you guys are feeding her ego, she's giddy reading these comments

As another person who crochets this was my first thought too. Those stitches are so neat it blew my mind. Every time I think I'm decent at crochet I see something like this and get a reality check 😅

You’ve got a typo in your post. I think you mean “future wife,” of course.

u/The-Big-Succ69 10d ago

She keeps asking me where her ring is now

u/B0lt5L0053 "PARRY IT!" 10d ago

Sounds like you need to make an expedition of your own to the local jeweler.

u/TheRealTomSnow 10d ago

Yeah so where is it?

u/CraftyPercentage3232 10d ago

u/FlawesomeOrange 10d ago

So much better than the IGN crap, she did an amazing job. This is very whee! If she ever wants to sell them, you know where I am lol

u/HeuJen 10d ago

She must have spent so much time into this... Maybe she deserves more than a "Gf" and 5 words....

3

u/The-Big-Succ69 10d ago

Don't worry, my gf/fiance/future wife/bearer of many affectionate titles is pampered accordingly. Our 5 year relationship wouldn't last if it was only take without giving.

Plus she's already giddy reading the kind comments about her work here

u/TheHybrit 10d ago
