Dobby
Dobby the house-elf from Harry Potter. Made for a fandom charity auction.
Of all the clothing items, I like the scarf the best. Possibly because it was the easiest to make, I will admit. But I also like that I went with contrasting fringe at the ends there :)
The socks I probably like the least. I have never made socks before, and didn't even bother to look up a pattern for normal-sized feet, let alone smaller-than-baby-sized feet. (Though baby socks would probably fit him pretty well.) I went ahead and added lightning bolts to the blue sock at any rate, just 'cuz.
The hat I'm neutral on, though it does need a safety pin to stay in place :/ Ah well; can't win 'em all.
Just-the-smock version, which is what I'll eventually be using as reference images for the pattern. Mostly because I'm only planning to include the smock pattern in it at all, so. The smock is, in fact, tied on at the shoulders, and I stitched a little seam into the sides below his arms for a more "pillow case-y" look.
In retrospect, I maybe should've added dots to his eyes before I glued them on, tried a couple different directions for them to be "looking". I still think it turned out pretty well, though.
Dobby's pattern is available here.
