Oh Rats

Finally! Some progress...at this rate, M will get this bugger in time for next year's bday (it was supposed to be only a few weeks/months late).






And there's the Tank in her usual sofa position while I'm *not* knitting. When I knit, she's trying to become one with my lap.




And here's the Tub O' Projects Yet To See The Light O' Day:






I hope to make decent progress on the scarf, I've carved out significant "leave me the hell alone" time this weekend.

Ready for her new home in Canuckland!

I hope Rose finds this wee pug as charming as I do - especially since I'm the worst person to sew anything up!

The down and dirty details:

Yarn(s): 1 skein Bernat Roving (cork colorway) and 1/3 skein Bernat Roving (bark colorway) for pug; 1/2 skein Plymouth Galway Worsted (pink) and 1/3 skein taupe acrylic worsted.

Purchased: Mary Maxim online

Needles: size 9 circs

Time: for me 40 hours; for most knitters, 12 hours

NOTES: If I were to knit more of these pugs, I'd skip using a chunky weight yarn and drop down to aran weight and use wool. The Bernat Roving pulled apart too easy while knitting and split like a gold-digger who's main squeeze got nailed by a hostile takeover.
