Zen the Fish

Remember The Hubbs' comic strip, Sam the Dragon?



How about the crochet Sam I made for our beloved niece K's 4th birthday?


And the crochet Corny I made for her at Christmas 2012?



For K's fifth birthday, I added to the Sam family with Zen the Fish.  The main challenge here was that Zen lives in a bowl.  In water.  How to do that without breakable glass and still have Zen be someone K could play with?  Why, a plastic display jar and crocheted water, of course.

 




And here's the whole collection of Friends I've made for little K through her fifth birthday.  Gromit was first, followed by Totoro and then the Sam gang.

 
Coming soon: Ms. Flutterby, the Viking helmet, and the Gandalf hat.  Stay tuned!
