mmm...Pizza...and Cheese-kun

I have an unhealthy obsession with manga and anime.  I find the artwork fascinating, the stories thrilling, and the authors brilliant.  It’s always been a guilty pleasure of mine.  I recently finished watching Code Geass, and enjoyed it thoroughly, especially the first season.  Imagine my pleasure when I found this pattern for Cheese-Kun (Pizza Hut’s mascot in Japan, who makes a couple appearances in the animation).  I wasted no time diving into the project.

When I was 80% finished with crocheting my very own Cheese-Kun, I ran out of yarn.  To quote Kurtz, "The horror, the horror."  I actually purchased the yarn on clearance from my LYS, which unfortunately, did not have any left when I returned with the hopes of purchasing another ball to finish my project. (darn!) I was, however, able to find the same color in a cashmere-blend, and decided that the dyes matched well enough to make the purchase.  So that's how Cheese-Kun gained a bit of upper-class flair.  After stitching on a face and stuffing him, I looked at Cheese-Kun, and he looked at me. He was missing something.

I stopped by a Pizza Hut after work and sweet talked the pizza boy into giving me an empty Personal Pan Pizza box. I placed my Cheese-Kun next to the box. Hmm, still missing something. The pizza box felt...empty. So I knit a pizza slice to fill it.

And with that, my Cheese-Kun was complete. You see how happy he is?

I’m having a bit of trouble finding a place to display him, though. Wherever I put him and his entourage, they look out of place. Oh well, the space by my woefully neglected sewing machine will have to do.

Welcome back to the blogging world! Your Cheese-kun is so cute! I love the box and the pizza slice is just the perfect addition to complete it.

It's so nice to see you crafting and posting again! I think the knitted pizza slice really completes the set - so cute! Fun to see crochet and knit together, so few people are interested in both, it seems!

Tanto as jóias como semi-jóias ou bijuterias são ornamentos para os seres humanos. Artefatos que podem demonstrar a riqueza, o poder, a criatividade ou a identidade de quem as usa.
Na prática a diferença básica está nos materiais utilizados em sua confecção.
Jóias geralmente são peças criadas a partir de metais nobres e pedras preciosas.
As bijuterias são peças feitas a partir de metais comuns e, por muitas vezes recebem banhos de níquel, cromo ou outras substâncias que lhe conferem brilho. Geralmente essas peças recebem no lugar da pedraria plástico ou vidro, moldados ou lapidados.
Uma Semi-jóia é uma peça de adorno produzida em metal não nobre, mas que recebe tratamento anti-alérgico e passa por um banho em metal nobre (ouro ou prata). Podendo receber como pedraria, além do material convencional, pedras brasileiras (semi-preciosas) ou materiais sintéticos de um fino acabamento e maior durabilidade, a exemplo da zircônia.
Outra característica da Semi-jóia é a garantia que acompanha a peça. Uma semi-jóia sempre tem garantia nos processos de fabricação e banho por período nunca inferior a um ano.
Apesar de ter garantia, toda Semi-jóia deve receber um tratamento especial para prolongar sua vida útil. Recomendamos a leitura do link “CUIDADOS COM AS SEMI-JÓIAS” em nosso blog.
