Shy Guy (from Mario) - A failed story

Here is the little shy guy I made for my team (as a trophy for whoever wins a certain race), and I realized after it was done that it looked more like a cross between shy guy and no-face from Spirited Away...
I rushed it and didn't have time to make another one with the needed adjustments yet, but hopefully I'll get the time to fix the pattern later!

You can find the pattern below:

Requirements:

• Crochet Hook C (2,75mm)

I used purple for the shoes, since the bonbons of yarn I got didn’t have a dark blue.

Attach the body to the feet and voilà!


Note for later:
I'll probably try to make one with a hood that can be removed. The head will then be a simple black ball, this way the mask can have holes for the eyes/mouth. I think it'll make it look better, instead of having those eyes poking out likes glasses :(
