Another potato bug plushie? On my blog? It's more likely than you think.
I once again used this lovely pattern (with some personal modifications) to create a new buggie pal, this time for a good friend of mine! We're doing a craft trade, which means I'll be sending her this potato and she'll send me a little crochet creation in return. I've never done a craft trade before but I'm very excited :>
My friend loves purple so I used a periwinkle fleece for the shell this time around, and I think it turned out very cute!

Thai Spiky Isopod
Family: Armadillidae Scientific Name: Isopoda sp. Adults : 0.5-1.2 cm
Just look at their little spikes!!! 😍 I didn't know the family name of these little potato bugs/rolly pollies (New York names) until a few days ago and I can't stop saying it.
Armadillidae. (arm-uh-dilly-day) It's really just the -dillidae that gets me. 😆
A lot of the information out there has more to do with keeping them in terrariums so I'm still on the lookout for more "scientific" information. 🤔

Hi there! I’m interested in how the meaning of "potato bug" varies by region, so I'm running a very short (~1 minute), anonymous survey to find out!
---SURVEY LINK---
You can complete the survey even if you've never heard of "potato bugs" before (but please indicate as much when prompted). Also, please be aware that the survey includes several photos of insects, so I'd advise against taking it if you're squeamish about bugs
Thanks and have a great day! :)

A first for me, got a Jerusalem cricket. Also known as potato bugs, but neither is a great name for them. He is absolutely gorgeous, and very powerful!

Look at this chonk of a Jerusalem cricket I found in the pool. Sadly it was dead, but pretty cool specimen. Too bad you can’t pin them without their butts shriveling up. Might work as a wet specimen though.
Genus Ammopelmatus
Northern California
