Edward Tulane, knitted based upon the illustration in the book.

Edward done, but naked on the 10th of February. Working on his clothing still. Had a heck of a time trying to get his ears to stand up, but I did stuff lightly. For his head, I added a few rows onto his neck and then k2 together and bound off remaining stitches. The jacket is 70 rows, including the garter stitch border. I continued the buttonhole pattern placement then stopped. When I got to the point the jacket was near the bottom of his legs, I increased (Kfb) 7 times, starting with the stitch immediately after the 1st 4 k every row stitches. Jacket finished 2/17/2016.

Now to the pants. For the pants I cast on 80 and did 1x1 ribbing for 1/2 inch in the round till I got to the tail, about an inch this was done on a 1.5 needle for the ribbing then I switched to a size 4. Once to the tail worked going back and forth for another inch then rejoined in the round until the bottom of the crotch, about another inch, then split the stitches evenly and increased 3 stitches m1 at the begging and end of each round. Worked flat to the end of length needed for the pants and garter stitch for 2 rounds, bound off and sewed up the seam. Sewed on lace inside cuffs and at the collar and button front. Shoes from Hobby Lobby.
