Did you know the devil could look so cute and harmless? Don’t you just want to pinch his pink little cheekies? Yes, he’d like that.

To make it look more devilish, we included the little black horns at the top of its head. And then to top it off, we just cut out some black wings using a thin black foam sheet.

The only problem with this devil monkey amigurumi was that our image of it was completely different. Janama wanted it to look cute, but I wanted it to look evil…..and maybe cute? At any rate, I couldn’t help myself and just cut out the wings so that they’d fit my image of the devil. Sharp, pointed and fancy! I figured that since the monkey’s face was cute already, I could probably get away with the wings that no one will probably pay much attention to. Hehe..

The felt face and chest pieces are a dark red color. If you think about it, isn’t the devil all red? We could have done white felt, but then it would just end up looking like a Santa Claus monkey… So instead, we just used dark red felt. Does it look devilish enough?

I even tried to be fancy and cut an extra little edge on the upper tips of the wings. Did you see them? If you did notice them…yay.

My black flowers that I bought a long time ago really came in handy here! I really liked how they looked but could never seem to find a place for them. Now they look happy and perfectly at home with our devil monkey amigurumi.

It’s that time of year again!! My brother’s birthday…that’s what pretty much started it all for me. First present included R2D2 and Waluigi. Second present was Mario. This year, it’s none other than…
BOWSER!!
I guess we’re on a Mario characters making spree. Why Bowser of all the other characters? Because other than Waluigi, my brother usually chooses Bowser to run us over when we play Mario Kart. No, I’m not bitter at all!! Not at all…
Making Bowser took a whole month! Sounds long doesn’t it? Just imagine all the planning and crocheting and felting and sewing that went into this! One day I spent crocheting the jaw, mouth, and head. A second day just crocheting the body and shell. A third day on the legs. A fourth day on the arms, tail, and horns. A fifth day on the hair, and cutting out all the felt, and gluing it all on, and finally we were done! Oh wait…that was actually only five working days huh…and what a very productive fifth day we had too! I’ll confess that I wasn’t efficient, but I got discouraged during the process just looking at the pieces without a good vision of how the end-product would turn out. If it weren’t for my sister nagging at me and guilt-tripping me to finish, this may have taken even longer.
Anyway, enough of my whining. Let’s see how Bowser evolved!
This was the beginning. I basically made three small balls and sewed them up into this nose/mouth. Then made a tube to connect to another ball, and that made up his upper jaw.
Then I crocheted some more tubes and connected them together to make the lower jaw. To fill up the empty space on the lower jaw I crocheted a small patch and sewed it on, then glued red felt over it. I also glued some red felt to the top jaw and stuffed the empty space in his head.
Here’s the finished head with some really sharp teeth!
Whoa and all of a sudden he has a body! Sorry, I didn’t document much, but trust me, you aren’t missing out. Seeing those stray pieces lying around was actually kind of depressing.
Finally, when my sister put his eyes on he came to life! And I was excited to finish him again! I thought this part was funny because he looks angry. I could totally imagine him saying, “Gah! You better be putting on my horns right! Or else!! Raaaarrrgghgh!!” Calm down Bowser! You are in good hands.
Applying the finishing touches…
The finished product!!
Does it look like its original?
I think this is what Mario would see if he were standing right under Bowser. Speaking of Mario…
Don’t they look so friendly!
Mario got away…too close for comfort I guess. It’s okay, Bowser still has Boo!
