Notes

Phew! This little guy took a while for me to get started on (was having trouble remembering how to knit wraps, etc) and would not be recommended for people who don’t like sewing in ends to finish projects, but once I got rolling on him I completed the whole thing in a weekend. The hardest part was choosing the right size and colour of button for his eyes. I messed up his wings - one is at least an inch higher than the other - but considering I was knitting with crazy furry techno hair in BLACK, and couldn’t see a damn thing, I think I did pretty well! :)
