Didnt see a lot of knits on here but the rules didnt specify what qualified as “art”. Roughly 230 hours of work on this piece :3

    I’m curious… when you say “circular needle”- I assume you mean knitting? Did you knit the color panels and stitch them together? Or is it all knit as one piece?

    Also, out of curiosity, have you tried crocheting? There’s a lot of patterns for a lot of stuffies (including the Japanese art of amo-I’m-not-even-going-to-spell-it)

    Buttons is sure to be loved by whoever he goes to , though. Quite the adorable hippo.

      Yup, knit on 24 inch circular cable needles in size 1. Its knit as one piece with each shape cast off from the edge seam of its neighbors. The only sewing is attaching the eyes

      I tried crochet but it just wasnt for me. Amigurumi is cute though

    It looks so good 😲

    I wonder how it would hold up with playing over time.

    Guaranteed if my kid were younger those buttons would be the first things to go.
