One of my friends, who I go to Graphic Design school with, is absolutely obsessed with ducks. Our friend group usually calls her ducky, because she might as well be a fluffy yellow duck herself. She even quacks when she’s exited, it’s really cute. We shall call my friend Ducky to make writing this a bit easier, because to only call her She<\/em> sounds so distant… <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ducky’s fascination with ducks has led her to adore the character Lucifer, from the Hazbin Hotel show. He is a big duck fan, and so is she. Ducky knew I could crochet, she asked me if I could make her a duck based on the Hazbin Hotel show. I told her I could, and so the commission request was born. So I started to work on the Lucifer duck (:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I first started with the little duck itself, it’s just perfect to hold in your palms. Ducky was especially a big fan of the wings because they were movable. The flappy wings fascinated her. I used Alize velluto in the colour Light Yellow (13) for the body and wings and Alize velluto Light Orange (550) for the beak. The eyes I used are 8mm black safety eyes I think, but dont quote me on that. I used a 3.5mm hook, which is very small for the yarn I used, but the duck did turn out pocked sized like how Ducky requested of me. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The character of Lucifer has a big hat, it is one of his most recognisable clothing pieces. I didn’t exactly have a pattern for a hat, so I just messed around. In the end it did turn out really well. I had the perfect colour of creamy white yarn and a good deep red for the accent. Both the white and red yarn (and the yellow one for the snake) were acrylic ones that I have owned for years, so I have no clue where I got it. I used a 2.5mm hook for the hat and snake, that way the stitches would be close together.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lucifer also has a little golden snake on his hat. That was quite a bit of work. Especially because I was running out of the yellow yarn I was using fast… I barely managed to complete the snake, no yarn was left over. I could attach the little fellow and there, the hat was done. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The next step was the little bowtie. I decided to make that with the same fluffy yarn I used for the Luci duck itself. For the people who are curious: I used Alize velluto yarn, and a 3.5mm hook. Once again very small. Doesn’t the duck look like a distinguished little gentleman?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

(These photos were in fact taken in one of the classrooms of my school at the time, please don’t mind the bad quality of the pictures)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the end, Ducky was so happy with her pocket Lucifer duck that she gave me a big tip. I had asked her for \u20ac10,- because yarn is really expensive, and she was more than willing to pay with how much work I had put into it. This was a commission, so we discussed the price beforehand. If you want to commission me, check out the contact page to learn how to (:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ducky still brings her companion duck to school every day. He has even become her group mascot for a different project, and they named the team The Fluffducks. Hence the name of the post!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
