An adorable Crocheted caterpie plushie.
Fun fact about me... To combat the existential dread of approaching the end of my PhD, I often crochet pokemon plushies as a form of procrastination. The newest addition is this sweet little guy!
I used the free pattern by Moreleigh Menagerie available here: www.ravelry.com/patterns/lib...
Ooooh you should check out Larissa Lai's The Tiger Flu!!!
