Notes

Astra - Hot Blue - lips / stripes / fins & tail
- Wild Wizard - body

round needle- 16”.

This is for a co-worker’s son - hope it turns out - I have 3 more requests already!!

almost done. I like the blue - but it was too close to the stripe colour - it is all blending together… but thats ok :).

Nov 26 - all knit - just have to assemble tail fins. I got some cool eye buttons. I also striped the fins with blue and multicoloured yarn - I like the effect. Next pics - done!! :)

Jan 4, 2012 - two more to the collection - a brown one w green fins, and a purple with red/orange mix.
Did them in a 7 needle with worsted yarn. Not big enough for an adult - good for a med to large kiddie.

November 2012 - making more!!
