It's a . . . . BEAR!!


This is the latest addition to the family . . . a teddy bear and the answer to the "what is it" below!! He's made from the free yarn so many knitters got recently . . . with a bit extra purchased from the store. Took slightly more than 3 skeins, but he's still adorable!


Isn't this the wildest color you've ever seen?

Remember my jaywalkers? This is the same yarn! Then I must have tried another 5 different patterns before admitting defeat and just going with this, which is a slip stitch cable. Am pleased to say I added probably another 1.5" after taking this pic, and fully intend to complete the first stock tomorrow!

Omigod! What IS it????


I know, it looks like something hairy died on my carpet. I've been knitting on this a week or so, and am thrilled. Am almost done! Take your best guess . . . . and I'll post a picture of the finished article once it's completed!

No - it isn't a toupee . . . . although it might make a really nice hat for someone needing hair . . . .

hehehehehe
