I have a new motto "Some days you just need to knit a hedgehog."
I also have a new study companion:
I love him so much!!!
Unfortunately, he is not really mine to keep. He is a Christmas present for my mom. She loves hedgehogs. As a kid, we even had a pet hedgehog (Mrs. Tiggy-Winkle of course). And when I discovered Purl Soho's pattern, I e-mailed it to my sister and we quickly agreed that we both needed to make her one.
While I was visiting for Thanksgiving, and my sister and I were showing each other our projects, she pulled out her mostly finished hedgehog. I knew there was no backing out now, especially since they were my idea. So I started him Thursday and finished him Friday. And, other than a few fiddly bits (I gave up on the double points right at the start and magic looped the whole thing) he was an adorably quick knit. I already have a list of ten other people I could make these for, including myself.
Thanks for checking in,

P.S. Wednesday night I turned in the application for the teacher credential/ Master's program I have been talking about. So that is one less thing I need to worry about. But, I still have at least one more exam to pass before I have a chance of being accepted. Wish me luck.
