You even decrypted the the pattern legend, you're amazing!

Here's for the yarn: We Germans don't have a standardized system for yarn weight (although by now some company's start to use the American System, because it's less ambiguous).

The American system of numbering yarn would be amazing if it weren't screwed up already. :( They lump both worsted and aran under the same number when its obvious they are two different weights. What were they thinking?

I hate gauge swatches terribly, but I will do one for this. Though I am pretty sure the yarn I chose is a bit too thick if 24x24 is the gauge.  Back to the Yarn Stash I go.

That much ribbing may kill me, so don't expect pics anytime soon.  But I will post them when I'm done.

You're the best.

Again: you’re very welcome! Actually it was fun!  ;D

I learned stuff. And I spread knowledge (well sort of).  I like that quite a lot so: thanks for the challenge. (I'm studying to be a teacher so that’s kind of an occupational thing I guess).  ::)
Plus: after finally working through my first clothing pattern (without going bonkers nonetheless) I might just consider doing something apart from blankets and toys.

Good luck finding the right yarn and hang in there with the gauges.

I happened to hear a story on public radio today about the Icelandic language. 
I'll post the main audio podcast in the Icelandic Speakers thread.  However, the accompanying print story focused on knitting terms!   :D

Enjoy!

This is my first amigurumi.  :)
I didn’t follow any pattern, but it was surprisingly easy to find out what to do. Except the hair. Oh, The Hair, the most important part of Emil, gave me headaches, and I’m still not really satisfied with it.

It was quite fun to make Emil, but what should I do with him now? I’m tempted to crochet others from the team (I’ve just found a perfect yarn for Lalli’s hair... hmmm), but still, what can you do with some silly dolls?  ::)

Don't worry about the hair, it's definitely shiny! This is one of the awesomest amigurumi I've ever seen and I'm massively jealous that you could just make it without a pattern, it's perfect!

As for what to do with dolls... crochet the whole team, definitely, and then... they can have adventures. I mean I'm not sure what to do with dolls other than play with them so that's what I'd do. :D

But the hair is perfect!
And what can you do with some silly dolls? You stage their silly doll adventures and take pictures, of course :D

Adventures... you mean, looting the bookshelves, going on a scientific expedition among geranium plants on the balcony? Sounds great!
I thought I'm an adult, but I was probably mistaken.  :P

Would it be totally rude of me to ask you to post like, a tutorial on how to make one? I NEED A TINY EMIL IN MY LIFE
