I made a neat shape yesterday called a humybug. I’d never done one before. Followed the tutorial here: https://plushcat.blogspot.com/p/humbug-tutorial.html. You start with a rectangle and sew it into a little tetra shape. It’s cute. I think it would make a good cat toy. :)

first you make a rectangle

and then you sew it into a little pyramid ahape

    Interesting to know about the origin of the word. I read somewhere that it is based on the shape of a candy, but I’ve never seen ones like that.

    The shape reminds me of the little cardboard orange juice containers I had in elementary school. :)

      I was thinking closest food item would be Onigiri, but you’re right! I was only able to find a Swedish product picture, but these definitely existed. Now I feel old ;)
