The Tribbles have returned!!
Oh wait… it’s not a tribble. What the heck is it then? Weird mossy boulder? A jelly-bean that I dropped under the bed that started to grow fur?
No, it’s Sal*, the hedgehog!
I cast Sal on at about 3 o’clock on Sunday and was felting him by 8:45 that same night. I already have requests for two more hedgies. And I fully understand why people find them so addictive to knit. Look at him! He’s freaking adorable!
Speaking of adorable…
I found this little guy at JoAnn’s when I popped in to get the fur for Sal.
He needs a name...How could I pass up that cuteness for only $2.50?
Speaking of great deals… (check out Kelly and the mad segue action!)
I picked this up at the thrift store for $1.79. Then I did the Happy Kelly Dance™ all around the store.
I also picked up
Shaun the sheep must belong to me. I have been exposed to the adorableness that is Wallace and Gromit (thank you Chris!) and I am officially a fan.
Got my first EVER ball of Trekking
I couldn’t resist the crazy colors!
And, to finish things off nicely
Are these cool or are they cool? They’re leather DPN holder thingies. I have HUGE issues with my DPNs poking holes through my bags, stabbing me when I’m groping in my purse for something, stitches falling off the unprotected ends, etc.
Now I just need to cast on some socks, so I can use them…
*1000 bonus points and a cookie for everyone who can guess why his name is Sal. Here, I'll give you a hint... look at his COLORS...

I'm too crampy and crabby to even guess at the name... :( He's adorable, tho.
Glad to introduce you to the wonders of Wallace & Gromit & Shaun!! That sheep you got is really cute, but he's definitely not a Shaun. Actually, I think he's a she. Maybe Wendolene. ;)
OOOOO love that colorways of Trekking. Your hedgehog is very cute. Obviously your knitting mojo is back.
He is TOO cute! I love him to pieces. Don't you absolutely adore Wallace and Grommit. I love those movies. Grommit is the coolest dog in the world.
Aren't those hedgehogs the best? I think I've made 7 or more last year. Really fun!
Salazar Slytherin is SO CUTE!!! I don't like felting, but making that cute little bugger will be worth it!
I love hedgehogs.
Oh yeah I totally cheated because I found you from your intro in the HP 7 KAL blog. (122 days!!!)
You better head to the leaky cauldron forums--there's an excellent Snape discussion going on right now.
Oh Sal is beyond Fabulous! The Hedgehogs are such a fun, fast, SUPER CUTE knit.
Welcome to the world of Wallace and Gromit! We love them in our house. My son claims that he IS Wallace.
The hedgie is so cute!
I heart hedgehogs!!
The hedgehog is adorable! Where did you get the pattern?
