I’m making quick work of the amigurumis for my family! Thank god, because I’m officially pretty sick of crocheting legs and arms.

Dadgurumi in a Blizzard

But, every time I get another finished amigurumi it’s so hilarious that I just can’t help but make more!

And I’ve got to keep mixing it up because everyone has such funny little quirks. My dad, for instance, has huge ears that you can see poking out from under his hat.

So, this is my dad.

Dadgurumi in a Snowbank

There are three thing my dad loves more than anything else in the world. They are, in no particular order:

1. The Detroit Lions

2. The Detroit Tigers

3. Blizzards

Tigers Hat, Lions Jersey

If my dad had a uniform it would be Detroit Tigers hat on his head and wearing a Detroit Lions jersey or tshirt. His amigurumi got an upgrade to a Calvin Johnson jersey, which I’m sure it won’t go unnoticed.

And yeah! That is our street! Minnesota is on pace for the snowiest December in the history of the state and you can tell by the 7 foot piles of snow everywhere. I could be laying in that snow drift and it would look just as big.

So it’s fitting that on the first official day of winter (yikes) that I share some snow shots, and my dadgurumi enjoying it.

Two gifts left!
