Cat plush draft V2: a stretched out and floppy girl. Not the end design but hey! It's progress!
This is my submission for #AutismAcceptanceMonth's #AutisticCreativeFestival's #InfiniTints prompts Unmasking Magenta AND AuTism Gold.
What does unmasking feel like to me? It feels like falling into all of those classic cat-like stims I internalized from the only creatures I understood as a child. Stretching, meowing, purring, sunlight naps.
Cats are, after all, very autistic animals.
It's also a followup to our #AutisticCreativeTakeover submission! The pattern on google docs can be found in the thread linked below, still in progress + being edited but perfectly usable to #crochet either of these #amigurumi plushies so far. :3
Attached: 4 images Calling this the first "draft" of our #amigurumi cat pattern. It's not too bad! See thread for why these tags are relevant: #AutismAcceptanceMonth #AutismAwarenessMonth #AutisticCreativeTakeover #AutisticCreativeFestival and for the pattern.
This one was inspired by this year's #AutisticCreativeTakeover prompt list by @/SaltedGayFish on Twitter (and Tumblr) for the #AutisticCreativeFestival taking place this month! It's mostly on Twitter, but I'll be cross-posting everything here and on Tumblr too.
The prompt I immediately zeroed in on was "animals." https://twitter.com/SaltedGayFish/status/1641916405506351106
