This week I had a couple of new characters to make - Bing Bong and Joy from the 2015 Disney/Pixar film, Inside Out.

One of the big lessons I learned this week was to make sure I Google characters that I'm unfamiliar with to double check on their colouring. Intially, I'd crocheted the entire body in baby pink because that is the shade of pink that I interpreted from the photos on the pattern. 

But upon checking further, I realised that the pink is actually way deeper than baby pink.  Doh.  I had to unravel about 2 - 3 hours of work - painful! 

What have you had to learn the hard way?
