sesame street yip yip as a hanging basket in red fluffy yarn

Pattern: Yip Yips by Clarissa Browning (pattern shown for both crochet & knit together)
Started:  6 April 2024
Completed: 12 May 2024

For: me! 

Hook: I / 5.5mm
Yarns: held together
  - Lion Brand Faux Feathers, red, 2 skeins
  - Lion Brand Vanna's Choice, crimson, approx same (I used up leftovers on this)

Size: about 7 inches across base & 16 inches tall (excluding tentacles)

Notes:
  • I had intended to make it entirely of the faux fur yarn, but it was far too flimsy alone.
  • Gauge was different than in the pattern, so I just kept working until it was about the same size and adjusted along from there.
  • Added a circle of cardboard in the bottom to provide a little more shaping.
  • I had an extra skein of the faux feathers yarn, so decided to make the mini version.  It is about 3.5" across the bottom.
