Wombok



Here's my latest little bear, Wombok. Which is actually an asian form of cabbage, that I'm currently a little bit in love with ( the cabbage), it's really yummy. And I also am quite taken with the word, it's like Wombat ( which is a lovely word in it's own right) but to me Wombok has a little song to it, a little more surprising perhaps. You think the bat coming after the Wom, but NO it's a BOK!!! And if you say it over and over again it sounds a bit like a frog croaking. ( Ok by know I think you know I'm totally nuts- I will stop now I promise, it's just some words get me excited....)
Anyway Wombok the bear, is made out of a suri alpaca yarn I got from Purlsoho that is super fuzzy and snuggly, it looks a bit grey in the photos but is really more of a soft beige. He sort of reminds me a bit of Yoda from Star Wars? Wombok really likes Yoga, sitting in the sun, star jumps and alphabet soup in a cup.

Wombok is adorable. What a gorgeous little face!

And just so you know, I have been sitting here saying wombok, wombok, wombok out aloud, to see if I sound like a frog.
