I've completed yet another challenge in this round of Nerd Wars. This was the Team Spirit Challenge. Here was our task:Your challenge this month is to craft the ideal gift for a character from your nerddom. This is a great opportunity to show fellow Nerd Warriors, and especially your teammates a bit about who you are and who/what you love in your own particular nerddom.
So...instead of using my typical vampire inspiration (Ann Rice, True Blood), I chose to use The Little Vampire as my muse and I created Batty, The Vampire Bat. Now my little guy didn't turn out quite like the pattern. I think it's because I stuffed him with too much Alpaca fiber which is totally different than poly-fill plus I used a merino/camel yarn for the bat and an angora yarn for the cape so I had very drapey fibers. I love him though. He totally has character and right now he is decorating my office at work.











Haha, he's super cute, I love it!!
