FO: My First Amigurumi, a Koala!

I'm SO excited about this!  Yesterday, while taking a break from the Granny Square Wedding Blanket, I crocheted a Koala Amigurumi for B for either Valentine's Day or his birthday (which are 5 days apart).  I don't have much money, so while trying to think of something I could make for B using yarn from my stash, I came up with this!  I first decided to make a bear, but then I relearned that his favorite bear is a Koala (yes, we both know it's a marsupial, not a bear).  Conveniently, I had grey yarn in my stash!  This was definitely the hardest & most challenging thing I've made to date, but in a good way.  So, without further ado, I introduce to you K the Koala.  Appropriately named because in real life I call B B :).  I couldn't sleep last night, so I decided to have a photo shoot with the little guy.  Pattern can be found here.

Swimming in candy canes.

No, I will not share the chocolate!

Can't pick a book.

Still can't pick.

K made a friend!

K finally found a book.

Story time.
And bed time.
