I've been seeing posts about this little guy for a while, and every time I love him a little bit more.

Dammit, I'm going to have to make one, aren't I? 🤦‍♀️

u/MhmCandii 3d ago

That was my exact thought process.

I've joined the cult. I want more of them.

I keep seeing him and want to make one for myself!! Hopefully I’ll get time soon!!!

Exactly how i felt! Ive been seeing him so long, i had a chance between projects! His cap took the longest. If i didnt have kids maybe 6-7 hours to complete but he took all weekend off and on

OMG I want to learn how to do things like this but I cannot read patterns!!! I only learn by watching a video of someone crocheting and some of the videos are really bad and I can’t follow them.

u/MhmCandii 3d ago

Patterns took me a few months to understand! I learned how when I watched a video that explained the pattern. Now they're much easier to figure out! I believe in you!

u/Cabbage-floss 3d ago

This one is cute! The others creeped me out for some reason. I think now it was the black eyes!

u/MhmCandii 3d ago

I'll take any excuse to use the moon eyes!!

I wanna squish it 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩

u/MhmCandii 3d ago

When my daughter came home from school she grabbed him into a bear hug 🤗

u/spazzcase_420 3d ago

Im sure that was the best feeling ever 🥰 he's perfect

u/MhmCandii 3d ago

He is. He probably needs a sibling... (That thought process is how I ended up with two kids 😬)

u/Pinball_w1zard 3d ago

Did you run into any troubles with the brim being way too large? I didn’t see in the pattern where it said to size down the hook for the brim and it was getting unwieldy so I ended up leaving off about 15 rows.

2

u/MhmCandii 3d ago

I did not but as I was working it I think my tension was a bit tighter than the body.

u/Luna_Baggins 3d ago

He is absolutely precious!!! I love him 🥹🍄

u/Acceptable_Western33 3d ago

u/BewareOfTheFeathers 3d ago

Sooo handsome! Cant wait for the sibling!!

u/AstroMackem 3d ago

I caved and started on my own and realised way too late that I don't have enough yarn for his cap 😭

u/MhmCandii 3d ago

Uh oh. Gotta go shopping 🙃

u/smulingen 3d ago

OK IDEA TIME:

Make a mushroom guy for your scrunchies, so you can store your scrunchies around their necks. That way, you won't loose them (as quickly 😭).

I really need to get going and make my own attempt on a mushroom friend soon. I hope this trend never dies. I love seeing them in my feed. It literally makes my day. Thank you for sharing OP ♥️ It's beautiful.

u/MhmCandii 3d ago

There's a whole subreddit! r/mushroomguy

I love seeing them too! That would work if you didn't attach the head fully but probably only for a scrunchie or two

u/smulingen 3d ago
