Main color = Lion’s Brand Colonial Blue

4/2 - finished the top of body (MC)
4/3 - after a couple tries, finished the eye patch. It was pretty difficult to do being so small. I wasn’t sure how to easily spread those stitches on the DPN and see what I was doing clearly. Also, I am not sure I like the result. It is bulky and looks kind of messy. I might try to embellish a star instead.
4/5 - finished 1 ear (Magic loop). I am obviously not going in the order of the book.
4/7 - finished 2nd ear.
5/9 - done sewing together! Just need to add the mouth
5/13 - mouth is finally done! Next time, I will try to use less glue. I got glue all over parts other than the mouth! :( Monster Photo Shoot coming soon!
