Wooly Cow Kit

Occasionally I see a cute craft kit that inspires me...


Like this wooly highland cow.


I started it a few months ago - finished the body... but then took a break. 


An upcoming birthday (and Christmas) encouraged me to keep at it... I completed the head!

I did find the instructions challenging to follow. Lots of abbreviations... At times I had to write down the instructions in longhand to not get confused.


Here it is, nearing the end - only the long flowing hair remains.


My stuffy isn't as cute as the picture! Such unruly hair! I think it's because I crocheted from the outside of the ball of yarn. By the time I got to the hair, I was using yarn nfrom the inside, which had been wound more


This salad bowl has been a helpful place to store the project... Now the little guy sits in there and greets the world!


(Does he need more hair above his eyes?! I'll add a bit more...)


Final pose!



Now it's done!
