This pattern was absolutely wonderful. It was extremely detailed :) My favorite detail was the claws. They are cleverly designed.

This project took me awhile because of travel and pain, but I found it enjoyable nonetheless.

She really came together when I learned to embroider a nose and smile onto her sweet face.

I purchased a stand for her, because she is such a floppy little thing.

I used some Malabrigo yarn, whose provenance I cannot remember, to make an i-cord, which I wrapped around one the US 5 DPNs used to make her. I then threaded that through her cute little claws.
