This Boomalope is an adorable stuffed friend. Careful though, those colorful spots are full of chemfuel (Well… not in this pattern)! While useful, Boomalopes can be quite dangerous, so handle with care!

Cherries, PhD is dedicated to my time in graduate school, where I loved doing experiments, but hated writing papers. In a fit of frustration and procrastination, a fellow grad student doodled these cherries on the board. They were so cute, I couldn’t help but bring them to life (while procrastinating writing a paper, of course).

This pattern is for a small, crochet octopus with unique, bouncy tentacles.
