named thus because knitting him kept me calm on the plane during our little trip last fall, this guy has been on the needles since then - and is finally finished! the pattern is from an issue of spin-off from last summer - he is an estonian sheep puppet.
last night, when he was just one ear short, i put him on my hand and made him dance to the closing-credits music of the movie we were watching. i now realize i have entirely new level of power over ben's emotional life. i have never seen him laugh so hard, so fast. and so predictably - all lowell had to do was move his arms and ben was in tears.
a simple man, my husband.
this yarn, by the way, is stuff i dyed with mac in the summer. i think i do a pretty good near-solid; at least i do it the way i like it.
more dyeing coming up within the next few weeks.
