When making a new bear or toy some come together so quickly for me, work for the first try , others times it takes longer, lots of redoing, unpicking and redoing. My new elephant was the latter.
Having not been as happy as I would like to be of my previous Elephant amigurumi attempts, I set out on Friday to make a new pattern. 3 heads, 3 ears and 4 body makeovers later, Gordon was born.
Admittedly perhaps head no 2 would have be OK or fine ( a word that I don't like) but since i was trying to make something I felt more happy with i felt like it was sort of beside the point.
Gordon is obsessed with all things nautical and sailing. He especially loves racing little boots on whatever water he can find lying around. He likes Peanut Britter a whole lot too.

LOVE Gordon!
The only other Gordon I know is a potato farmer and something tells me he might have a secret love of boats too.
Have a happy day Jess. X
OH MY GOD!!!! Jess!!! I love Gordon!!! He is so sweet and loe the colour you have chosen!
He is just ADORABLE! I love the colour too..
Oh Jess, he is lovely. Is he for sale? I am thinking he would make a lovely gift for my daughter. Let me know, please xx
p.s sorry to hear about your bike accident, I somehow missed that post. Hope your bruises (physical and otherwise) are healing
Jess, I'm glad you persisted - he is awesome... but don't let Miss Muggins buy him...I want him !!!
We all want Gordon! What a great guy he is, and so worth that extra effort. Trunks can be tricky, you did a sterling job. Now he just needs a seafaring girlfriend, or should that be boyfriend? Either way, I bet he'd like some company xo
LOVE IT! This is my Fav animal in the whole world!!!
happy birthday gorgeous girl!!
hope you have an awesome day.
looking forward to seeing you tomorrow.
BIG squishy hugs

Ah... looks like Cathie has let the cat out of the bag! Happy Birthday to you, Happy Birthday to you, Happy Birthday dear Je-ess, Happy Birthday to you! Sending you a big virtual birthday hug. (and I adore your elephant. He's definately my favourite so far of your amiguramis)
Gordon is completely delightful! And I am totally envious of how talented you are :)
Gordon is beyond sweet. I don't know how you do it. Just splendid.
love him! (and happy birthday for yesterday!!)
I am not surprised that Gordon has so many lady admirers - he is gorgeous. I may have sucked in a little air when I laid eyes on him. So sweet Jess
Gordon is perfect in everyway.
