Joining in with Ginny (a little late, I'm afraid!).
Now I know nothing about your Avengoids or your Marvel or your Batdude or Cat Lady or any other superfolks*, but this weekend I decided to do something Captain America themed for my nephew as he arrived wearing his onesie. If this project turns out to be a blanket (current plan), I've got plenty of time to finish it for Christmas. However, I'd hate to have to find a replacement yarn for that dark blue if the store sold out of it - I'm completely in love with it.
The pattern to crochet the star can be found here (YouTube). Thanks, Crochet Hooks You!
And here's the cover I finished last week. All I need now is a small bottom panel to help keep the cushion in, which shouldn't take me too long. While I really like how it turned out, I didn't expect it to be ... so loud! Haha.
The 'springtime' and row of bottom buttons was an improvisation as I realised the basket was too off-centre for my liking.
The basket was made up from my head, but you can find the (knitted) flower pattern here at Little Cotton Rabbits. For the bottom three flowers, I did a row of single-crochet in the dark pink yarn around the outside of the petals before sewing them up together.
Overall, a nice productive week on the needles.

* - Once, Smaz and I were watching the BYBA (marching band) finals. One was a superhero themed show, and one guy - the drum major, I think - was in this entirely blue outfit. I was convinced he was meant to be Bananaman for most of the show until Smaz pointed out he was actually meant to be Captain America. Whoops.
