Notes

15/07 - Bit of a delay while I lost my crochet mojo. But now only one antler to go and I can stitch him together.

09/06 - Just the antlers to go and then I can assemble the beast!

This project has been quick to work up as I’ve had long gaps between making parts. I’m definitely going to make one or two more as gifts.

05/06 - have finished, stuffed and fastened off the head! He looks really cool and moose-like already. Am really pleased and looking forward to making the rest of his features from tomorrow :oD

Completed up to end of round 12. The long slog now begins to make the bulk of the head shape…

Hooked on and completed the first 8 rounds during a stitch’n’bitch with frostique on Monday lunchtime.

All that single crochet does make a dense fabric which is new for me, but it’ll really hold the stuffing in!
