Such a super fun project. Absolutely everyone who’s seen it loves it. This was my first time doing this particular stitch, took me a few minutes staring at the directions blankly before I caught on (lol), pretty sure a little drooling was involved. I’ve never done a crochet stitch where I don’t turn but instead work left to right…all in all it took me maybe an hour/hour & a half to do. My sister-in-law wasn’t even the least bit excited to model the awesome facial hair if you couldn’t tell from the pics ;)

I used an alpaca blend for the neat hairy look.
