Pteranodon
This is the second Pteranodon is I finished from Planet June's Dinosaurs Set 2. I donated the first one to charity. This one is for a gift.
What was unique about this project is that it has been my travel project. I only work on it when I have appointments or other times that require waiting. While I could have finished it ages ago, if I had continued to work on it when I came home, the size of the project made it perfect for those long waits when you need something to occupy your time.
I have already put red yarn in my bag to start another one for a charity project. I need to complete two more for my charity goals and then I will put a new project in my travel bag.
I used Caron One Pound yarn and safety eyes to complete this project.

Plesiosaur
This is the third dinosaur I made for my donation project. The pattern is from Wolf Dreamer's Dino Buddies patterns that my husband purchased for my birthday. I continued my stash busting goal and used up some Bernat Super Value Lilac I had left over from a previous project.
This has quickly become one of my favorite dino patterns and one I keep returning to when I need a quick toy pattern for family, friend, or donation.

Parasaurolophus
Parasaurolophus is the second dino I finished for my donation project. The pattern was part of Planet June's Dinosaurs set of 3 I received for my birthday. This dino was part of my stash busting goal. I used a ball of Kelly Green Bernat Super Value Yarn that has been in my bag of yarn balls for a while now.
I loved the face on this project. I have liked the way Planet June designs her faces and horns. I still prefer the tails and bodies of Gourmet Crochet's Amigurumi Dinosaurs.

Dimetrodon
I finished my first donation dino for the project I have been blogging about for weeks. I have been promising to get going on this project forever and it feels so good to have one I can send off to the Church. I hope to have some friends to go with him. The plan was to have a herd. However, each journey or herd starts with the first.
This guy was made using Planet June's Dimetrodon pattern. I got the pattern as part of her Dinosaur Set of 3 for my birthday. You can purchase it as an individual pattern. This is the second pattern I have made from this set. The combination of detailed directions and zoomed in pictures that demonstrate the stitches make her patterns wonderful to follow.
I used Red Heart Super Saver from my stash to finish this guy. I am in a stash busting mode. While I keep buying yarn for specific projects, I am determined to use my amigurumi's as a reason to destash when possible.

Pteranodon
Terry the Pteranodon is the first dinosaur I finished from Planet June's Dinosaurs Set 2 that I received for my birthday. After buying Planet June's The Complete Idiot's Guide to Amigurumi
The directions were very clearly written and included extensive photographs to follow. Unlike my previous attempt at making a pterodactyl, I had no trouble attaching the wings to this project. The directions and the wings made the process clear. In fact, the style of wings makes them very moveable. I think this will be a popular feature for this Christmas present.
I used Caron One Pound yarn and safety eyes to complete this project.

Plesiosaur Crochet Dinosaur
I finished the first dinosaur from Wolf Dreamer's Dino Buddies patterns that my husband purchased for my birthday.
I found the directions to be clear and easy to follow. I used Red Heart Super Saver Yarn and saftey eyes.
I am really excited about my dino projects. I want to make some for a family birthday close to Christmas and others for Christmas presents. I am also thinking they would be good for donations if I can get myself organized. I am developing a collection of patterns that will delight the children and keep me from never wanting to make another dino again. As much as I love Gourmet Crochet's Amigurumi Dinosaurs, I have made so many that I needed to try something new.

Triceratops Revisited
I have stayed focused on completing my projects. The dinosaurs are coming along and I have only the final additions on the last of my farm animals to complete. Then I have to move to Thanksgiving projects before the holiday gets away from me. I ordered some sock and sport yarn to experiment with the Barbie Pilgrim dress and some other holiday projects.
I love this set of dinosaurs. The pattern is called Dinosaurs and available from Gourmet Crochet. The only pattern I really have not mastered is the pterodactyl. At some point, I need to figure out how to attach the wings to the figure according to the pattern. Other than that, the other amigurumi directions have been easy to follow.
This guy has already been passed on for his trip to his future owner. I hope he enjoys many hours of adventures.
This is a set I suspect I will be visiting again.
