The Hobbit Series: Line of Durin

Line of Durin

Finally, here is the Line of Durin: Thorin, Fili, and Kili! They are from my amigurumi version of "The Hobbit" movie characters. I hope you like them!

Above is the photo I used for reference. I also posed them in the same way. How do they compare? :)

And here are some of just the brothers, Fili and Kili!

And here the princes are with little Bilbo!

And here are what I like to call the "family photos." I certainly felt like a family photographer during this photo shoot. The real Fili and Kili probably wouldn't have been so patient and still during the shoot... ;)

And there they are, all happily together with their hobbit :)

Maybe I had a bit too much fun taking these photos, but they certainly came out alright!  I'm quite pleased with the final products, and I hope you guys are as well. They were really fun to crochet and now I'm quite fond of them. They look like they're all ready for an adventure soon!

Ok, now for a bit of house keeping: I will be taking a short break from the Company members (as in the dwarves), but I don't want to stop crocheting yet. I think that for now, I'll stick within the Tolkien / Hobbit universe and move on to a different fandom once I'm done. Based on the results from my poll on my blog and on Instagram, the next character I'm making is... Gandalf! 

I hope you're all looking forward to seeing the grey wizard as much as I am! Come back in a week or so to see if he's arrived. 

Until the next time!

The Hobbit Series (Part 2)

Thorin Oakenshield

Here is the next update to my amigurumi "The Hobbit" series. (Also, happy February!!) 

Presenting the company's esteemed (and quite majestic) leader, Thorin son of Thrain! How can he be so cute and fearsome at the same time? ;)

Thorin without his coat vs Thorin with his coat

Which style do you prefer? I think he looks equally majestic either way (haha).

Here is a side view of little Thorin. His coat is quite furry!

And here he is with his map! Of course, how could he get to Erebor without it?

Finally, here's the King Under the Mountain with his favorite Burglar hobbit, Bilbo Baggins! They're quite the pair, right? ;)

And this concludes the second installment of the Hobbit series! I hope you enjoyed it, I know I did. I was quite a lot of fun (and hard work) making Thorin, especially that fur coat of his. But, it still was an enjoyable weekend project. If you want to see some behind-the-scenes work in progress photos, feel free to check out my Instagram account (click the Instagram logo on the side of my blog!). Come back again in a week or so to see which company member arrives next!
