Crochet Challenge!! Day 29: Black

The last assigned theme is Black. Black is one of the hardest colors to crochet with, because it is difficult to see what you are doing with such a dark color. As soon as I noticed today's theme was black I knew what I wanted to make. It's a soot sprite from "Spirited Away". I've actually never finished this movie, but Kiki's delivery Service is my favorite movie and they are from the same studio. I simply crocheted a block ball and then Alfredo brushed the surface with a slicker brush until it became this furry, fluffy texture. 


Here is an example of what a slicker brush looks like and I actually found mine at the dollar store. They are meant for brushing animal hair, mostly fluffy dogs.
