I actually purchased yarn in late 2009 to make these and 2-3 other pairs of socks for my mom, who seems to enjoy them greatly. Stay tuned for the next pair, likely a month or so from now!

I made this little dude for a friend who enjoys the shrieking slugs from this charming movie.

Here is the gratuitous dog picture, along with my latest pair of fingerless gloves.

Crochet seems to take forever for me, probably because I have to look at it so much more than when I knit. Intarsia is always frustrating too, with all the tangled yarns to deal with! But the effect is very nice, don't you think?

Here is the pattern - from a 1996 edition of McCall's Crochet. I probably started this project way back then. Perhaps the oldest UnFinished Object, it will become a wedding gift for friends.
