Crocheted Hobbes of "Calvin and Hobbes"

Do you like the Calvin and Hobbes comic strip?  Bill Waterston, the creator, always refused to commercialize the images of the characters, especially Hobbes, because Hobbes is imaginary, how can there be one fixed image of Hobbes for any of us?
So,  follow this link to a lovely rendition of Hobbes but never sell one for profit.  Enjoy!

Cat Pouch for Electronic Devices

Isn't that little cat paw adorable!?  Now, I have 20 very  friendly cats on the ranch, so I should make this for my cell phone!
This is a Japanese website, but the photos and pattern are self explanatory.

Box Type Purse Japanese Pattern (Sewing)

Definitely no crochet today. This old fashioned style coin purse would be a great addition to a crocheted purse. Especially if made in a coordinating fabric.
Follow this link for a detailed tutorial.  The english is a bit fractured, but the photos and patterns are self explanatory.
