Mite from Ni No Kuni

I enjoy watching Martyn Littlewood's () Ni No Kuni series on YouTube and decided I wanted to send him something from the series. I had a bunch of orange and teal yarn laying around (I'm a crocheter. Yarn lying around is a common occurrence.) so I decided to make "Strippy". Originally I wanted to make Mr. Drippy, but had no yellow and wanted to attempt to make my own pattern. As there are a few patterns out there already and none of our beastie friend (as far as I can tell), I chose the latter. His sword and shield are made out of foam sheets and a couple of elastic bands so that he can hold them. I will attempt to recreate the pattern (I made the mistake of not writing anything down) sometime in the future when I have free time. I will post it to my journal with a link in the description here.

"Strippy" is approximately 8 inches tall and 4 inches wide (too many sweeties).
