Crochet Christmas Present

My mom crocheted me a monster for Christmas! Horatio is totally made with my custom decisions, from the eyes to the color to the ears, horns, feet, everything! I love him dearly.

3rd picture is the book his pattern(s) come from- and my mom's present today, so we won't have to keep the library copy hostage anymore 😅
