I am waiting on yarn to knit my first sweater. Because I apparently have caught the bug again, I started another little project last night, just with some of my (monstrous) both-my-grandmothers-left-me-knitting-supplies-and-yarn stash. Blue, sport weight, just plain old acrylic, using my size 5 bamboo double pointeds. I bought some batting to fill up my project, and went to town.
And I knitted a head. Not just any head, an elephant head.
And then, when I got home, I got to knitting again (even though my sweater yarn arrived) and now, it is an elephant head with a body and the start (the THIRD start, which I have yet to get right) of an ear.
Hmm. Do I go to sleep, or try, try again with that ear? (Maybe I should have moved on by knitting him a limb or two, since those seem much easier…)

Oh My Gosh.
SO CUTE!!!!
Also, purple Elekks FTW.
Oh I love it! It is amazing!
I love the color and the elephant is so cute! I can’t wait to see the finished product with eyes and everything. You must put on some eyes and you must finish the product and you must post the photos. Aren’t I being bossy? Will you keep it for yourself or give it to a little one who calls you “aunt?”
:-) Probably a little one who calls me aunt. And I will post pictures. Thanks.
So cute! I wish I knew how to knit.
YAY!!! Isn’t this such a wonderful pattern?!!? I love that there is NO seaming!!
I know! That was the biggest draw. I hate sewing. :-)
