Here's a monster guy whom I am knitting for a friend's son who has been knitting for a shelter so that every child who comes in will have at least one toy or buddy or whatever. He's created a poem that goes with each one explaining that the monster is feeling lonely. He gives each one a name which goes in the poem. He's got a few of us doing this.
I had made 2 earlier ones, but this one seems the softest and most cuddly. I think it looks bigger in the picture. It's about 8.5 inches or 21.5 centimeters tall, not including legs and ears. It's an old stash yarn called Rainbow from Cascade. It's a cotton boucle with a nylon (I suppose nylon) binder thread. It's as soft as all get out. Not to worry, it will be getting a face, but I'm not done thinking about it yet.
This is for Laura, she who encouraged the blogging and then enabled it by providing the I-Phone. Thanks, hon.

Will it have bushy eyebrows?
Do you think it needs bushy eyebrows? I was thinking about something more minimal, but I will consider this.
Tricky though -- bushy eyebrows, but not stern ....
No, you're right, the eyebrows would have to be aft.
Took me a minute, then I got it
