Tamagotchi's have never been more popular than today and of course I had to add a Tamagotchi Pix to my collection when my local Nedgame store decided to stock up on all kinds of Tamagotchi!
I love the Tamagotchi On/Meets that I already had but the simplicity of the Pix has something appealing too. It's in English, colour, saves progress and lets you explore and meet new tama friends.
Only downfall is battery life. This version only lasts me 1 to 2 days which is really disappointing for this type of tech. I expected better of Bandai - Better battery life!
To protect my cute little pink Tamagotchi Pix against any bumping and scratching, I designed a quick and fun to make crocheted strawberry cover/case. This pattern can easily be adjusted to any size and design that you like.
I used organic slave free cotton yarn by Anna & Clara by Sostrene Grene. 50g = 160m. Thread is about 1mm thick. You can use any type of yarn you like!
Feel free to experiment and tag me in your photos on social media - Have fun!
US terminology is used for this pattern.
