Nuts About Squirrels


Meet Squirrelly. He is a Fiber Trend cousin of the Huggable Hedgehog pattern. He was a fun, fast little knit. Ingenious construction techniques. He was my first intro to intarsia.

He is very cute and very huggable.

Ask and you will receive. Mary requested a side view to see the tail. I am more then happy to oblige. Thanks Mary!

The tail is rather large and out of control. I'm thinking I will add a second anchor up around the base of the head. Squirrelly is rather tippy.


I also have a Fake Isle hat on the needles that is coming along ok. While I'm here I will just add in a picture of the just now completed Fake Isle.

Oh wow I love the squirrel! It's so cute! I almost died when I saw the tale! You crack me up with some of the things you knit. I think its safe to say you probably knit more than I do homework... ;]
