This is one of the more bizarre bits of shaping I’ve done, I’d most likely want to tweak on this pattern if I ever do it again and would DEFINITELY do so before writing up a pattern to give to other people, and I am SO glad I wrote this shit down because I have to do it twice, but: Behold!

[ID: Two images, one from the side and one from the bottom, of a crocheted amigurumi’s foot, wearing light blue sandals with short heels. End ID]
It looks a bit wonky from the other side and at the closure - again, would want to refine it if I do it again - but it’s definitely a defined heel. Score one for me.
#crafting with regalli#crochet#twilight town amigurumi#twilight town amigurumi: namine edition#wips#I don't think I could use this exact method retroactively for Xion#DEFINITELY not for Lea whose limbs are too noodle#(I'm pretty sure I needlesculpted his anyway. Or tried to because again: SMALL)#but theoretically I could modify it a bit if I really wanted to#both of them also have chunkier heels than the sandals anyway#I might just to try it out since it would be easy enough just to frog and discard if I don't like the results on the other two#I'd just need to find the yarns I used for their shoes#it's not like they NEED heels because they are not dolls that can stand on their own#they need support to sit upright with their large heads#but this outfit is SO EASY on the whole that I wanted to see if I could do it#and it makes the sandal base look a bit nicer#plus okay yes I am trying to figure out the hair and hitting the obvious issue of how wispy and loose hers is#versus the fact that I do hair as shapes and not strands#I'm gonna do her bangs next probably to get back into the habit of Long Triangles and I have the back section mostly done#it's just that the front/side bit has to have the branching so it's going to be the trickiest part#likely of this whole doll#also yeah you can see the straps I did for the sandals those were trial and error but my initial idea basically worked#it's just a matter of patience and weaving in a shitload of yarn ends#I do still need the stars but I'm pretty sure those will be embroidery floss in some way shape or form and am getting that tomorrow#need to see things in person#if it IS going to be proper yarn it needs to be a lighter weight than what I have in this color#the dress is going to need me checking a couple methods for which looks best for the lace edge#and I will decide how I want to close it and attach the arms and do the straps once it's made. But that is IT.#everything else still to go? Arms and ears and assembly? totally standard.#hair's the last real challenge
