Knuckleheads Monster Softie Pattern
Meet the Knuckleheads! This pattern is for an easy-to-make softie with three variations.
Clyde (the mopey gray one) is crazy easy to make. If you're looking to make your first softie ever, I'd recommend Clyde. Plus - he really needs a best friend.
Leonard (the purple one) has a very hairy back - and he's proud of it!
Mary Margaret (the red one) has a few self-control issues - but she has a kind heart and she loves to give hugs with those long skinny arms.
With one pattern you can make a whole horde of monsters. After you make the basic Knuckleheads you can play mad scientist and start rearranging the parts. Add Mary Margaret's long arms to Leonard. Replace Clyde's ears with Leonard's horns. Give Clyde's ears to Mary Margaret. I'm sure there's a limit to the number of combinations possible, but I don't remember how to do that kind of math. :-)
