so Ludwig can grow further, I didn't take pictures yet but you can give him arms and legs now and Hey a little Mystery in a CAL is never wrong, right? ^__^

typo: on page 5, row 4 of arms it should read: (sc5, m2) x3

oh

sorry for my absence for Ludwig, I'm in bed with a cold and don't feel like crocheting at all, instead I sleep, drink gazillions of peppermint tea, watch DVDs and knitted a bit. Mindless, non-thinking, straight forward knitting, and although I'm in bed for almost four days now I didn't made much progress:

it's a cowl, so I don't catch a new cowl immediately ;P

Ludwig update

the next part of the Ludwig pattern can be downloaded now :) ravelry should have sent the update automatically but in case it didn't you can download it here:

download now

it includes the facial details you can see in the last post. I play along with hair/mane styles in the meantime - there are quite a few ways it can be done :)

oh this is so much fun, I almost had forgotten how much it is, thank you all

Ludwig

when I created the "pattern" page for my CAL at ravelry I needed to name my lion, and since I tend to give my creatures human-like names and I wanted to name my lion something starting with an "L" the first name coming to my mind was Ludwig, quick decision the pattern would be Ludwig, the lion ... but then I started thinking about the name and it turns out Ludwig is a must-have-name for lions, I mean another famous Ludwig with lion like hair was van Beethoven:




and just think of Ludwig XIV - the sun king as well, I mean royal and sunny ;)




Ludwig is for lions ^__^

let's crochet along

who wants to join me? I want to make a lion, simple, cute and little . . . testing a few hair styles, or mane styles in this case ^__^
in case you want to join, I will put up a ravelry pattern for the CAL and update it as I go, maybe you want to share you're pics here as well, or in case of questions or comments or chatting or anything really

I think I will start the CAL in midweek, so keep you're hooks ready
