Have I mentioned that I hate knitting these fucking cat ears for the Stackable Cats? They should use this part of the pattern to torture prisoners, I swear to God. The medium cat has 5 ears- 3 attempted on dpns, and 2 with magic loop. Guess which ones are now in the garbage? 3 times I wound up messing up the stitches, so there were 2 or 3 rows of stockinette, and the rest reverse stockinette. WTF? Stoopid toothpicks. lol The magic loop ones are fine. The feet and tail will be magic looped, too. And I am going to make the ears, feet and tail for the large cat first, then make the body. I am soooooooooo looking forward to embroidering the faces on them. My embroidery skills suck ass.
I am almost done with the Hedgehog. I had to stop because my hand was killing me. The first section of short rows is done, and now I have the decreases to do (I think). We may have another snow day tomorrow, so Wooo-Hooo! Lucky me! Another day of knitting, cooking, trying to keep the dog from going stir-crazy and moving snow (to who knows where- there's no more room for any more of this shit).
I will post pictures tomorrow, although everything looks like cat puke at the moment. Nothing creepier than an unstuffed, unfelted hedgehog. :-)
