#6 Sushi Fishy

#6 on the list goes to Tanya Klowden's Sushi Fishy!

This amazing little piece of amigurumi wizardry has been the most popular item I've made to date. I don't know how many people begged me for their own little sushi fishy when I posted the pics on Facebook!

This is an ingenious little pattern that makes a reversable toy that transforms from Fish to sushi and back again! This was one of my first successful endeavors into dpns and it was a really fun, quick pattern. I was making fish into sushi after about and afternoon's work!

Here's a couple pictures of my incarnation of the pattern, using random scraps from my stash:



When I originally made the pattern, it was free, but now it is being sold ffor a $2 donation towards the American Red Cross to support the victims of the Japanese earthquake/tsunami. Such a great pattern and such a worthy cause!
