Felix is a phoenix worked in flame colors — deep red at the base moving up through orange into gold at the crest. Tested pattern for @cosmos.crochet.qc.
Every feather on the tail and wings is made separately and layered on. There are a lot of them. That’s the whole job on this piece: make the same shape dozens of times, then place them so the color gradient lands smoothly and nothing sits flat. Sewing took longer than the crocheting did.
He was the first piece where I stopped thinking of a project as one object and started thinking about it as a construction. If you want something with this much detail, it’s a longer timeline — worth asking well ahead of when you need it.
