Capricorn the Frankenknit



I've been trying really hard to put pictures of this on Ravelry, but neither it nor photobucket seem to be terribly inclined to agree with me at the moment.
These are pictures of the 'long awaited' Capricorn Knit, of which I'm rather proud. I don't have pictures of the white lion I made for his Grandmother, but at some point I'll bring the camera over and see if I can get a photoshoot done.

He's knit with small needles out of some of KnitPix yarn, and his most complicated peice is his tail fin, which is one piece. Mostly he's straight 'Fuzzy Lamb' from Fuzzy Mitten Designs, but his horns and from the 'waist' down he's all franken-knit.

Lithium-Flower (power)

First: if you've never heard it, this song is awesome...."Lithium Flower"

Second: Tilmani finally found a way to charge the camera battery, allowing us to take some new pictures and video of Mini Monster (now an amazing five months old).

Second, we have photographic evidence for the first time of him smiling! Prior to this he was forever being distracted by the camera.

He's only in a diaper because he just got back from his Nana's. It was hot and second, although he has three different possible cooler outfits, I think she just strips him down if she doesn't like the choices.

Here we go!
