Morton “Patchy” Minibear
July 18th, 2009
Morton lost his eye in a freak embroidery accident, so DON’T CALL HIM A PIRATE!! (It is a sensitive subject for him).
I used this pattern. I couldn’t get his right eye to look decent, and I tried so many times he was left with a mangled mess where his eye should be. Finally, I said "screw it", and crocheted him an eye patch with the embroidery thread. I quite like the way he turned out:)

I think the patch is perfect, and he’s all set for Talk like a pirate day (September 17th), it may be a healing process for him to see the humor in his deformity.
He is so cute, even with only one eye.
tell Morton he is quite dashing with the eye patch!
