Well, look what I've gone and done, a little amigurumi semla (sing., plur. semlor). Easy, fun and with a very rewarding end result I think. Not rewarding as in a real life, delicious edible semla, but definitely pleasing as in cute showbread.
There was the classic semla and
there was a chocolate semla with mocha cream.
And the semlor (plur.) were followed by something else. The explosion photo-style, as M calls it, shows the next project to be finished. Any guess as to what it might be?
