I finished the yeti I was making yesterday, only slightly under a month late. I ran out of yarn twice, which meant three trips to Joann’s to finish him. He’s big, much bigger than I thought he’d be – just over a foot tall. This is the first time I used a fuzzy type of yarn, and let me tell you, not fun. It’s very fiddly and hard to see stitches sometimes. And forget counting, I just have to hope I’m on the right track. His hands and feet were no picnic either, but I’ve crocheted enough now to figure it all out. It’s funny, crochet was something I learned after knitting to supplement it, but now I probably crochet better than I knit. My next project will definitely be knit. All in all, I think Mr. Yeti here was about 12 hours of work, and that’s being modest.
