Yeti and Bigfoot Can Be Crafty

A post for you DIY creative types. We believe Bigfoot is more than an undiscovered north-american ape. Bigfoot is also a muse, inspiring artists, writers and musicians alike.

Dont believe us? Then how do you explain June Gilbank? She is a self-described crochet pattern designer, writer, blogger, and multi-crafter. She has designed over 60 amigurumi-style crochet patterns, and her specialties are cute and realistic animals, plants, and seasonal crochet designs. My designs bring together my loves of crochet, technical writing and cuteness.

We know what your saying, "Of course she has a cat!"

She specializes in a very unique style called Amigurumi and she has created to Amigurami versions of Yeti and Sasquatch.

Ucu Added to "AKA Bigfoot World Map"

According to cryptozoo-oscity.blogspot.com:

The Ucu, also known as Ucumar or Ukumar-zupai, is Bigfoot type creature reported as being seen in the Andes range of mountains in South America particularly in Chile and Argentina. The Ucu is said to be the size of a large dog and walks erect. Unlike the Yeti it prefers the more tropical regions of the Andes mountain range, rather than snow covered peaks. The locals say the Ucu likes to eat payo, a plant similar to cabbage, and emits a sound like uhu, uhu. It is not just locals who have reported hearing or seeing the creatures.

For three consecutive years starting in 1957 there were several documented cases describing a mysterious creature described with features and behaviors all too familiar to us Bigfooters.
