And the winner is...

TA-DA!!
(That's C) The back end of a hippo, for those of you who can't tell.)


Isn't this the cutest thing you've ever seen?
He doesn't have a name yet, but it's a distinct possibility that he will soon be the property of a nephew, so I figured I'd leave the naming up to him.

Look at his little tail!

(Sorry, just had to post this one.)

I saw a pattern book at Michael's a while ago and tried to resist, but I couldn't. I didn't even know you could crochet stuff like this. And you know what? It's super easy! I'm so excited! As are my nephews--I already have a few orders. :) Don't worry, I'll let you know when I make more.

The end of the semester can't come soon enough...
