Notes

General
Excellent pattern as usual from Ella Austin and he’s so CUTE!
The red is hopeless to photograph well. It’s much darker in reality.
Buttons for the eyes from my stash.

Mods

  • 2.5mm needle for the main work, 3mm for the i-cord.
  • I’m starting on the legs. Saving the fun colourwork to last :-)
  • Used lifted increases.

Timeline
2016-09-16: Finished the legs and ears.
2016-09-17: Started on the body.
2016-09-19: Completely forgot to use larger needles for tthe colourwork so I’m having to wetblock it to get the gauge similar to the stockinet.
2016-09-20: Finished!
