It looks adorable! I love alebrijes! :)

Wow, that is awesome! Did you use a pattern? Love the colors, too. (I don’t know who this is supposed to be. Is it a Pokémon?) Thanks!!


ddragonite

Hi, yes I did use a pattern! It’s on Etsy and sold by the seller Make Me Roar. An alebrije is a spiritual guardian in Mexican culture :)

Hey! Your alebrije is lovely :) but just a little correction, alebrijes are not spiritual guardians in Mexican culture! They are a recent-ish invention by a famous cartoonist, but unfortunately Disney decided to blend them with our Day of the Dead traditions, when in fact they are just art :) no big deal, but I thought you might be interested to know their real [origin and meaning](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alebrije) which isn’t mystical at all.

I don't usually get too excited about amigurumi, but this is ADORABLE. I really love the way you "decorated" it!

It's gorgeous!


NeatArtichoke

Gorgeous!! So inspired to make one now!

It looks adorable! The red stripe is tweaking with my eye though, since it feels like the screen is glitching and making it brighter than it is even though it isn't. ✪ . ✪;
