Here’s a little tiny guy. Despite his diminuitive size, he’s taken a long time to make. I spun super fine lace weight merino yarn, then made the fabric for each pattern piece with punch needle emboidery. That took me awhile because it was my first punch needle project and I didn’t get the same density of loops on the pieces, and then I forgot to make one of the body pieces a mirror image of the other. I was working on this way back in April while I was listening to the General Conference broadcast. I took him to Boise with me too, in hopes of finishing him, but I was quilting.

Anyway, he’s done now and I love him! He’s pretty crooked and wonky. Sitting down he’s 4 or 5 inches tall, fully jointed, with glass eyes, and ribbon Amy sent me tied around his neck. Now he’s sitting on the book shelf by his big pal Rupert.
