Notes

2011-12-01: almost forgot! i loved how alleykitten did the eyes on her sheldon, so i made mine similar.

2011-11-25: finally! attached the legs. done!

2011-10-04: just need to attach his legs! had to restart the applied icord edging around the shell a couple of times. that was the most difficult thing to do and i really didn’t like how some parts of it look. some of the (opposite) color from the shell peeks through the icord. i also left an opening for his “tail”… the pattern doesn’t call for it, but i felt like it…

2011-06-22: done with his legs and now working on the shell

2011-06-14: sheldon’s body is done! i ended up sewing on some felt eyes. now for the legs!

cast on but didn’t like the bumps the kfb was leaving. they just looked strange. i knit combined so maybe that’s why. i frogged and then used m1r and m1l instead
