Sheepishly


OK so I finally got some pictures of the Sheep. I'm still not quite done with the brown one, I kept having some kind of epic brain dump when trying to do the second ear, but I hope to finish tonight.

FuzzyMitten also posted in her blog about a modification to the Lamb pattern to make a -really epic- monster, which I now hugely want to do, but I need eyelash yarn first. And I'm really starting to want to get some safety eyes. I don't think the JoAnnes nearest here has them though, and I'm not sure about the Michael's. I can order some, but yeah..... bleh. Maybe. We'll see how the Pan-Lamb comes out.

Knitting updates

Although you'll have to bear with me for pictures; I have finished the Yvonne sweater for my mom, and she loves it. She did think the back was a little narrow (It is a bit narrow seeming, but thats the pattern.) But does otherwise adore it.

I also made my first (and second) attempt at making a 'Fuzzy Mitten' toy. I made their lamb, first in white and black for Mini Monster.

It came out..... alright. Pretty good for a first attempt, but I overstuffed it, so I'll probably make him a new one.

The second one was in oatmeal and black "Wool Ease" and has button eyes ((So Mini Monster can't have it.)), but is looking a lot better, all it needs now is eyes. I'm planning a third that will get some modifications and will hopefully come out -really cool-. So knock on wood, it's for my Sister.
