@roler finally opened her birthday gift today (happy birthday, bestie!), so I can share what I made for her here!

First up is her favorite character, Boomer.

I bought a pattern for Roald, another penguin character, and made some changes to make Boomer. His hat had me stumped for a few days, until i finally figured out something that would work. I also couldn’t find a good brown color to use for the hat. @fishstix43 was kind enough to send me her brown yarn from the sharing and caring gift along stash. One of the shades worked perfectly!

I also made a gift box using yarn and plastic canvas.

And of course I had to make a money bag!

Two of my favorite deep sea creatures in the game are the starfish and the umbrella octopus. I included those as well.

Here is everything together to see how they compare in size. Boomer is huge! About 16 inches tall when sitting.

This is so sweet and so well done. I love Boomer. He looks so happy and pleased to be gifted to roler. I love the extras with the coin purse, starfish, and umbrella octopus. They are super cute. The box is impressive too. That takes a long time and it turned out amazing!
