Use white yarn:

Finish off, leaving a long tail to sew the wings togheter.

For the legs I made 22 ch with black yarn, then insert the chain in the bottom of the body. Same thing for the arms but with only 18 ch. For the hand and the foot I used 8 little pieces of yellow felt and sew them at the end of the chain.

To make the antennas I used a black scubidù and I putted two little balls of yellow yarn at the top.

Sew the mouth and insert the eyes. Sew the wings together and then to the body. Attach the body to the head...
You've finished, enjoy you're buzzing bee!

Another wip...



Sono tornata dalle vacanze... e ho ripreso subito in mano l'uncinetto! Sto realizzando un piccolo amigurumi da regalare ad una simpaticissima amica spagnola.
È quasi finito... domani vi farò vedere le foto, intanto vi lascio con queste foto del lavoro in realizzazione!
Non è difficile capire che pupazzetto sto facendo... ;-)



I just came back from my holidays... and I've already started crocheting! I'm making a little amigurumi for a nice spanish girl.
It's almost finished... tomorrow I'll post the pics, in the meantime I'll leave you with the photos of the work in progress!
It shouldn't be difficult to understand what animal I'm making... ;-)
