Katamari i my religion... I just had to make the Prince. His body is crocheted in cotton and the face is carefully painted acrylic felt.

Very nicely done, cute, but tell this old gal, what is Katamari?

Oh, gladly... sorry; I tend to forget that not everyone is into video games ;)

One of my favorite games, definitely. The Prince is the little character you start with - you control him as he rolls a sticky ball that cathes small things at first but the more stuff you get, the bigger the ball gets and the bigger the things you can roll up (ex: you start rolling up cookies into your ball and you may end-up rolling people, cars, houses, islands).

Thank you. That seemed likely, but I didn't know.

jsdflkjsd do you have the pattern for this? I'm fairly new to crocheting but this would be so perfect for my boyfriend.

Unfortunately, I mostly do improvised/freeform.However, with the number of Katamari fans out there, I am sure you can find a pattern using Google... Good luck!

Oh my GOD this is so freakin' cute! I LOVE Katamari but unfortunately, it makes me ill. Seriously, I get motion sickness when I play it. But awesome job!
