Pogo


It's been a while since I've attempted anything in that super fluffy yarn. Then suddenly last I felt an overwhelming need to make another fluffy panda. When I first started on him, and was crocheting his head it was going so smoothly and quickly I began to get excited and feel perhaps after 3 or so bears and a few chickies from it, I was finally conquering it and I was feeling pretty good.
Then comes the part where really struggle to like myself, where I discover in my genius I have forgotten to write down the pattern for the rest of it last time I made one. Clever chook that I am.
And of course when trying to figure out how I did the body last time, I start having major fluffy yarn issues, and alot of yesterday afternoon was spent undoing and redoing his body because I kept making mistakes, getting distracted and with this yarn it's hard to keep track of where you are due to the excessive fluffiness.

Anyway finally Pogo came together. I struggle at times thinking that perhaps he looked more like a poodle than a panda, but hope he has enough Pandaness to carry himself off.

Pogo like feeding the ducks at the local park, but not so much the swans as he is a little afraid of them. He also likes making things with his knitting nancy and loves fairy bread.


Oh and by the way he much prefers to sit down than stand, his fluffy body is a little much for his wee little legs in long periods.

Oh he definately looks like a Panda. He reminds me of my panda I used to have as a child, until his ear fell off and my mother threw him away without telling me! I am sure Pogo will be very well loved.
