PHEW!

Hopefully this speaks for itself, but man am I proud of this one. It's highly poseable, as you can see from the pictures, and serves as a great display piece and is pretty fluffy and cuddily as well.

It took a long time because each piece of that "fluffy" yarn is tied on one at a time, and after a little bit the pulling and tugging makes my fingers a little raw, so I have to take a break.

But irregardless, I love this and I'm so proud of it. My favorite part is probably the feet. I took special care to stitch in the "fingers" on the feet, over the "webbing" part I'd already done. I had fun placing it carefully so that the secured ends appeared to be little claws on the ends of the feet and the fingers, though the same color as the top of the foot in general, were still differentiated.

I also enjoyed doing the head webbing, the disc at the end of the tail and the scaling in general. It is scaled in the very front/chest area, along with the whole back side, but it's hard to see in the pictures.

Anyway, enjoy!
