My brother is a 'My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic' fan. Yes, my brother. Otherwise considered a 'bronie.' I thought it was a little weird at first, but being a fan as well in my younger years, I was okay with it.
Anyway, I have been wanting to make him a pony for a very long time. However, it took me that much time to find a pattern I really liked. I'm not quite skilled enough to create my own construct on my own, so following someone else's pattern was a must. I'm sorry, but at the moment I do not have the web link to the patterns on hand! If I remember I'll post the link at a later date. Key words being 'if I remember.'
I knew I was going to make a Fluttershy, his favorite of the gang. So, I rummaged through my yarn at home to find the right colors and went to work. The pattern itself was really easy to follow. With any toy made in parts, though, the sewing it all together was the hardest part. I didn't quite get the neck to look right, either, but she's still adorable! I cut pieces of yarn for her hair and attached it with a crochet hook. You could probably use a latch hook as well. Eyes and cutie mark were done in felt.

Since the Fluttershy toy was a gift, I couldn't share it until now! I have been waiting FOREVER to share it with the world. Needless to say my brother really loved it. Quite honestly, I feel she turned out ten times better than the on cheap China ones you can make in the store. ^_^ But I might just be biased!
