Monday Creature Feature!

This week begins a new regular feature for Amigurumi Team member works, called Monday Creature Feature. Every week, we'll pick a new item from a team member shop and feature it on the blog. You never know what sort of amigurumi goodness is going to show up, so make sure to subscribe today by clicking Follow on the right side of the screen or by checking out the team's Facebook page!

Today's Monday Creature Feature comes to you from team member, Minibytes!

With spring just a few weeks away, who wouldn't be tempted by this adorable chick pin cushion?! Minibytes describes her chick, saying:

This pincushion sits 3 inches high and 3.5 inches wide, or, in real life terms, smaller than an apple, and larger than an egg. He is crocheted from cotton yarn in yellow with orange yarn for his hair and feet, and is stuffed with polyfil acrylic stuffing. He has a metal washer sewn into his bottom so he can always stand up, and his eyes are plastic safety eyes. All appendages are sewn on securely, but he is not meant to be played with roughly or given to the dog to chew on.

Whether you're looking for a cute Easter basket buddy or a cute friend for a sewing fanatic, this chick fits the bill. Check him out and all his other friends at Minibytes's shop today!

UPDATE: The featured chick has sold, but there are still plenty of cute chicks at Minibytes's shop. Get yours today!
