This year I’m making a small exception, just for these...
Crochet amigurumi Mario Bros mushrooms!
I’m making them as a set of Christmas tree decorations for a friend of mine, who has a bit of a fetish for all things to do with old-school gaming.
It’s my first go at amigurumi, and I was surprised at how easy it was?! Just round and round double crochet, and a bit of counting. I’ll definitely be having a go at more patterns now!
If you’d like to have a go at your own set, you can find the super-helpful, well written pattern here.
and yes, I do know this isn't the specific "1-UP" 'shroom...I just couldn't resist the title :)

Love it! They are so easy and so cute, aren't they!
(I do very little Christmas crafting too - I'm a bit selfish like that!)
Cute! It's difficult to resist the charms of Mario characters/items I think.
Completely agree on the Christmas knitting front too. It's already a stressful time of year, why make that stress worse?
i gave up on christmas knitting too. it just never seemed to get done! and im tempted to take up crochet just for all the cute toys doing the rounds at the moment. mario mushroom, hilarious!
I kind of know about the Super Mario Brothers, but not really. This, however, is so cute!!! I think it's too hot to knit for Christmas here.
love!
