That's so awesome! I was gonna say the one with the eyes was my favourite but then I saw that cute Darth Vader, so lovely! How long does it take to make something like that?

It all depends on the item. The TMNT blanket took about 3 months, but I had a toddler and a full time job. The star wars I had to take the time to translate the patterns as I dont speak Spanish, but the actually hands on time for those was about 12 hrs each.

I can make a simple baby blanket in a week, or an elaborate one in a month or 2

Full size blankets I estimate 3-4 months depending on what's going on in life when I do it

Ohhh it's TMNT! Now that you said it I can see that clearly :D
It clearly takes some real dedication to make things like this out of yarn, more than I've ever spent on any project of mine :lol: good job!

Haha, yea I could have done that one better but I was on a time crunch. That was my first commissioned item. It takes a lot of time to do them, but its therapeutic for my anxiety so that helps make it go faster.

I actually haven't made anything in over a year but I have a couple projects I have atm I'm working on
