After receiving 50 Yards Of Fun, I can't put it down! I absolutely love Rebecca Danger's wonderful knitting designs. They contain clear, beginner-friendly instructions, and the outcome is simply lovely. She has helped expand my horizons in the world of knitting. Thank you, Rebecca, for all of your awesome tutorials, wonderful patterns, and everything in between!

I'm up to the ear with the Meager Mouse. I knitted both legs separately. After I knitted the first one, I cut the yarn, threaded a tapestry needle with scrap yarn, and transferred all of the stitches from the first leg onto the scrap yarn. Then I knitted the second leg, and joined the two legs together, and began to knit them as one piece. I was running low on plastic eyes, so I used oval noses for the eyes and nose.

This was my first attempt at knitting a stuffed animal. I used Rebecca Dangers Daphne the Monster pattern. | I made another ear for him, and I'm working on his other arm. But I'm running out of yarn! I started this next project back in August, have made some progress on it: |
That's all for now. I'm off to knit some more! -Emma
