The patterns for the clothes are accessories for Lord of the Rings characters are available on my etsy page.
***NOTE-This pattern can also be used for any human character, as long as they are made out of Sugar 'n Cream yarn (or any comparably sized yarn)***

Thanks for offering up your patterns, they are fabulous. I am so inspired and have decided to do the cast of Battlestar Gallactica in amigurumi!
This is AMAZING!
THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU! I'm a big fan of Lord of the Rings and I love your Gandalf. I'll make one for myself! Oh, wait... I'll make one for my friend too. She loves LotR.
I also like the link you posted to Ctulhu Crochet. Never thought I'd find the Great Ctulhu in amigurumi. Looks so cute!!!
Please, don't delete this patterns?
How cute!
But on the patterns you posted, where are the pictures to go with them? Or at least could you put a link click so we can see what we may be making?
YOu are very talented with crochet! :o)
I'm curious, what do you mean by (sc2tog)?
specifically the TOG part. I'm trying to make the Han Solo and Leia as cake toppers for my sister's wedding, and that's the only part of the patter I don't understand.
thanks.
oh, it just means single crochet two stitches together. It's really easy, you just put two stitches on your hook, yarn over, pull through one, yarn over again and pull through all three.
Plus, how adorable that you're making cake toppers! Maybe you could post a picture when you're done? I bet they're going to be adorable. That's so cute.
What do you mean by, "even"?
Do you mean do the same as the last row, or do one sc per stitch?
Shiko, it just means to do one sc in each stitch, no increasing or decreasing.
Thanks~!
I just started crocheting like a week ago.
XD
OMG, thank you! I was getting into doing felt plushies of various characters but was having a hard time figuring out how to make them more 3D. Now I can just crochet the body and add felt clothing and accessories. Man, I'll be making these things for a while...

What size eyes do you use? I love them, they are just the perfect size!
I use 10mm eyes. They are kind of hard to find, but Hobby Lobby usually has them.
thanks for the fast response!
I was wondering what pattern you use to do Altair? I want to make one for my husband. Thanks so much! (:
Can you use sugar and cream yarn for the bottom part too??
Zelda: Yep! Just pay attention to your gauge. Honestly, I would just use whatever you can find that gives you the best color. You can always adjust for gauge later.
Hey what color hair do each of the characters have? I'm making an aragorn and gandalf and don't know which embroidery thread to use!
Zelda: I use DMC embroidery floss. For Aragorn I would use either 3031 or 838. They're both dark brownish colors. For Gandalf I use 648.
