Yes, he's got a hood. And I realized, I forgot about the collar thingie, so quickly made one. This is how he looks in scout mode:



*squee* So cute! Just out of curiosity I'm certainly not scrambling for my crochet hooks what kind of yarn are you using? It looks much thinner than what I can usually get at the craft store.

It may be cotton and not yarn, I suppose :)

It's cotton yarn (category 2 'fine'; mostly Catania by Schachenmayr). Emil's shiney hair is cotton-viscose (Drops), Lalli's is a bamboo yarn - it is so soft, you feel the urge to pet him :)
As for the hook, I use a 2,5 mm one for most of the body.
They are 14-15 cm tall. Unfortunately they can't stand on their own feet; I need to use pins and other tricks for the photos.

And hey, you should grab those crochet hooks and make something. It's fun!  ;)

How easy would you say those two would be to make for someone who has never crocheted before and only knows the basics of knitting?

Thanks! Hmm, I don't think the store I usually go to sells that. Maybe I'll send my crochet-loving grandmother on a mission for my next birthday: she'd love that. Now I want a class-A crocheted kitty :)

It's not that hard, but I woudn't recommend making an amigurumi doll as your first project.
You only need to use a very simple stitch (single crochet), but increasing and decreasing can be little tricky.

So I suggest you to learn the basics and when you start to feel confident, begin with a simple pattern - for example make a kitten. :)

Here are some crochet guides:

https://www.anniescatalog.com/pages/stitchguide/index.html?cid=3

Easy kitten patterns:

http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/mr-tibbles-the-cat
http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/pocket-kitty

Martti: yes, feel free to post Emil&Lalli (I don't have Tumblr).
The photos would probably suit in the 'adventure' thread better https://ssssforum.com/index.php?topic=504.0, since the yarncrafters club shouldn't be overloaded with only my amigurumi things...

Yes, but I'm not too active there...
I've found you :) You are my first Ravelry-friend.

I don't knit, but a friend donated this Whovian Highway as a scholarship fundraiser for our section of the Institute of Transportation Engineers (shameless plug!):

AAAAAAH. This amount of cuteness is too much. They're so perfect and - and - and do I have to learn to crochet well enough to make something like this I wonder... I'm so tempted. Crocheting really isn't my sport but for something like this I would.
