Notes

9/4/17 - Done!!! Going by skein labels, I used about eight and a half. I have four and a half left so I’ll have to find something else to make with giant yarn…

8/14/17 - He has arms now too! Hopefully I can do the ears and get them on in the next few days, but I’d be okay with how he is now for Friday if I don’t finish.

8/14/17 - Finally finishing this. I want to use it for the baby’s monthly photos, so I’m trying to push and finish it, but I’m not getting much knitting in anymore with the baby. As of right now the legs are attached and the second arm is started. We’ll see how far I get by Friday for the first month…!

9/5/14 - So far it’s just a head and body. Pic is with a sport weight version for scale.

6/5/14 - Got it in my head I wanted to make a giant one. This may be a mistake, lol. I bought 6 skeins and have already gone through over two with just the head. I’ll need more. I think I have to make it in pieces and assemble (which defeats the purpose of the pattern in some ways…), but it’s just too big to do as written I think. It’s insane. :)
