Herimone Heartgoblin

Let me introduce you to Hermione. She is based of a pattern from Stacey Trock called Sparkie The Monster.    The original pattern is a very cute little monster. However for Valentines Day Stacey challenged her Ravelry group to take one of her patterns and use it with her Heart Pattern .  Hermione is what I came up with. I made a few modifications to the Sparkie pattern, created a dress for her and added the heart for her ears and antenna. Bellow I tried to write down with the modifications I had made. I hope they make sense to you and if they do not let me know and I will try to help you out.
