Gorgeous yarn for an acrylic! Wow! Soft and squishy without squeak!
Using CM scraps and odds and sods to fill in some of the colour gaps. (Pinks, blue, red…)
Great pattern but Don’t Print it! 39 pages is a tad much but each square is clearly explained and photographed. (I’d be lost without the pics and why I didn’t download the non-pic version!)
The only thing I have found in error on this pattern is that she doesn’t tell you to chain x number of times after making your magic loop. I don’t understand why not? You have to start with a chain 1 for sc, chain 2 for hdc and chain 3 for dc and then start your stitches. (It’s in the notes but why not just say it in the pattern when need be? It is part of the stitch pattern…JUST SAY IT!)
Trying to make the squares a little more square so that they don’t pucker in on the edging when sewn together. (Square things should be square, no?)
Cat and dog must go! Do you go to the zoo to see house cats??? Dogs? Must replace them.

Brown got here yesterday and so did Katie! I thought I had a bit more time but seemingly nope!

Walrus, seal and the darn racoon to do and then it’s on with the edging and piecing together. It’s truly adorable all laid out!
