He's Got Legs!
..And he knows how to uuuse them.
Isn't it funny when knitting makes you break into song? Or.. is that just me...
..Oh well.. anyway.. My teddy bear has legs now!
See? Legs! And it has a butt too.. I think it is absolutely hillarious that the pattern actually says "Butt" and has directions for knitting the Butt. I guess I just expect a knitting pattern to say "rear" or maybe "rump" or something.. but Butt? That's one step away from ass! lol!
I had a little issue when the butt was finished... Where I added in the stitches it would make little holes.. Knitting this butt is extremely similar to knitting the heel on a sock.. but I don't understand why I got holes.. I sewed them up the best way I could.. but I would have prefered that they not be there in the first place. Before I knit another one of these (And.. I pretty much definitely will.) I've got to figure out this holey butt problem. (LOL.)
This has been a really fun knit.. and not too terribly difficult.. I am glad that I have some sock experience behind me though because it has been helpful.
Now onto the head!

About Me

- Name:Kim
- Location:Houston, Texas, United States
I'm a tiny short woman who loves to knit clothes that actually fit me. I first learned to knit when I was about 10 but I never got beyond knit and purl. I didn't pick up knitting again till about 2 years ago, and now with the help of tons of library books, I'm chugging along and I think I'm pretty darn good : ) I'm married, and love my Australian husband dearly.
