I've finished the first (of many) Baby Alligator Scarf.
It's adorable ( really adorable... )
Now that my mom has seen it, she wants to me to make a bunch for my baby cousins (well, her grandnephews and grandneices, my cousins once-removed). Given that I finished this guy in three days -- about 7 hours total -- it's not actually a bad plan.
It's just getting the yarn for the scarves means figuring out who needs superwash and which color goes for which cousin -- apparently since I was stubborn 2-year-old about color, Mom thinks the baby cousins might be too. And probably dickering about the cost, since I won't go with cheap (and crap at keeping people warm) acrylic. My cousins live in Missouri; I'm not giving toddlers winter clothes that won't actually keep them *warm*.
Oh, and Clara? I've started the Malabrigo Alligator. He's( streaky )
