bradley the big poo

everyone, meet bradley, the newest addition to the household. he's a loving mound of crocheted chunky brown yarn. he's a bit sensitive about his size since he was bullied as a young'n about his weight, but he's taking self-confidence boosting seminars to improve his body image. let's help support his efforts towards becoming self-accepting.





he'll be moving to seattle in a new weeks to start a new life. wish him luck! bradley is my own crochet pattern and i hope to write one out in the near future so that you all can make your very own amigurumi big poo.  

* bradley has a distant sister named harriet the pre-op tranny poo (formerly known as harold the poo)

  4. Hello! I've made a poo family as a door prize (which found a loving home on my friend's desk at the high school she teaches at. Even better is that they fit beside the buddha figure!

    Anyway, I'm looking for a toilet paper rool cozy sized version -your giant poo is the closest I've found. For the mini version I changed the pattern so it swirled around. I'm hoping someone else has made a big version and can offer me help regarding adjusting the pattern for size.

    I've made a sushi TP cozy which was a huge hit but the swirly poo wouid be much more complex.

    Any input would be greatly appreciated.

    1. Hmm... I've never made a TP cozy before so I probably wouldn't be of much help to you and your project! Sounds hilarious though! Since you seem to have experience with crocheting, it might be best to just try trial and error. It's usually how I create my creations. :)

  5. A TP cover would be the same as the amigurumi, just no bottom and it would be bigger. I think the key is to find the correct ratio for the increases. I changed the mini poop so it swirls around instead of being 3 layers.

    I'll let you know if I figure it out.

    1. I usually start from the very bottom, so you know more than me about TP covers :D Good luck!
