I strive to build resources that reach Today's English Students, as the students sitting in our classrooms today are not the same as the students we had 5 or 10 years ago, nor are they the same as the students we will have 5 or 10 years from now. If you think of something I can do to make this resource better, or if you have questions, or if you have a request for a Beowulf resource, please just let me know. Thank you, and I welcome your feedback!

These are just some ideas I've played around with in my home game. I had originally planned for them to go into the Night Companion, bu...
As promised, the Manaphy pattern! And yes, she is significantly simpler than Abra. The reason she has no mouth is simply because all of the mouths I tried made her look really awkward and kind of like a diva, so I resolved to simply skip it entierly. I didn't have any pink yarn or I might have crocheted one. ;) I usually make it a policy to only use a single yarn type through the entire pattern, both for aesthetics and functionality. If i use a single type, that means it can be used with any type as long as the same type is used throughout and the hook is the appropriate size. In this case, however, I had to make an exception. The yarn I used for the main body was simply too soft not to use, but it was both too thick to achieve proper detail and only available in a very limited colour palette. Also, it was hell to sew with. Thus, I will split this pattern into two sections, one for each hook size and thus corresponding yarn thickness. Now, instead of crocheting the details, you can simply cut the shapes in felt and glue them on. I didn't, as I didn't have the right felt colours at home at the time, so I'm giving you the option to do the same. ;) Yarn colours used in this pattern: Light Blue, fluffy, 4.00 mm Yellow, 2.00 mm Red, 2.00 mm also some black, for embroidering 4.00 mm/American size G/English size 8 hook Head & Body (make 1): 1: 6 in mc 2: 6inc (12) 3: [sc, inc] x6 (18) 4: [2sc, inc] x6 (24) 5: [3sc, inc] x6 (30) 6: [4sc, inc] x6 (36) 7: [5sc, inc] x6 (42) 8: [6sc, inc] x6 (48) 9: [7sc, inc] x6 (54) 10-13: sc around 14: [7sc, dec] x6 (48) 15: [6sc, dec] x6 (42) 16: [5sc, dec] x6 (36) 17: [4sc, dec] x6 (30) 18: [3sc, dec] x6 (24) 19: [2sc, dec] x6 (18) 20: [sc, dec] x6 (12) stuff head 21: [sc, inc] x6, front loops only (18) 22: [2sc, inc] x6 (24) 23-25: sc around 26: [2sc, dec] x6 (18) 27: [sc, dec] x6 (12) stuff body 28: 6dec (6) fasten off, tighten Feet (make 2): 1: 6sc in mc 2: [sc, inc] x3 (9) 3: sc around fasten off, leave tail Arms (make 2): 1: 6sc in mc (6) 2: sc, inc3, 2sc, inc3, sc (10) Important: Inc3 does not mean three increases, but an increase with the intensity 3, i.e. thrre sc in one hoop as opposed to the normal two. 3: 7sc, inc3, 2sc (12) 4: sc around 5: 8sc, inc3, 3sc (14) 6-7: sc around 8: 9sc, dec, 3sc (13) 9: 8sc, dec, 3sc (12) 10: 8sc, dec, 2sc (11) 11: 8sc, dec, sc (10) 12: 8sc, dec (9) 13: 7sc, dec (8) sc, fasten off.

This should be fairly simple. Make sure that all the parts are properly stuffed and position them with pins to make sure that they end up right where you want them. Sewing in crocheted material can be tricky. Start with the blue parts. As this pattern is smaller and less complex than the Abra pattern, the order in which you do things matters less. Just make sure they're all positioned right. This picture just shows the parts arranged on a table. The antennae should be sewn on right at the top of the head. Now, whether you crochet the details or not, the positioning of them is both tricky and important. Do use this picture (or maybe a picture of manaphy from the games) as a reference for the positioning. The larger yellow dots should be the innermost ones and the tiny yellow dot goes below the red jewel. Manaphy tends to be very expressive. The way I did the eyes was simply because embroidering in crocheted cloth is hell and I didn't have any felt in the right colours. I advise you to use felt, reference pictures and your imagination here. It'll probably get you a better result than mine. ;)
