Feel free to use it if you'd like, just please credit me for the pattern! Also, if you do make your own puppy, please send me links to pictures!
His bandana is black and gold since his intended owner is a Saints fan. Hopefully he will be well loved. My daughter certainly enjoyed cuddling up with him...it was difficult getting the body away from her to attach his feet!
Next up is a wedding blanket for my cousin. Got the yarn this week and started on it yesterday. I am just doing a simple pattern in one color with a big hook, so hopefully it will go quickly. So many blankets, so little time...
Also, as it is Friday, don't forget to check out the new installment of Gronk. Apparently she really wants an iPad, and isn't afraid to use bad drawings to get one! Peace out, enjoy the weekend folks.
