Mr. Squirrel Is In the Hiz!


Here's Mr. Squirrel, all stuffed and ready to scamper around! He's a Fiber Trends pattern (Nuts About Squirrels) and is a felted toy.
As with my entire "Noah's Tard Ark" of knitted toys, Mr. S. is a little bit wonky. His fluffy tail is making it hard for him to sit up by himself (Maybe his name should be Mr. Tippy Tonks), and I couldn't find my package of toy eyeballs (well, they're probably made in China anyway, and loaded with lead). So I made his little eyes and nose by needle felting, which is much safer for baby.
He may be wonky, but I think he's kinda cute!

Hey Hads can't sit up either...so no worries Mr. S. Maybe you guys can just lie around and be gomers together. LOVE that you refer to your furry friends as "Noahs Tard Arc."

P.S. If you are going to try and talk like Snoop Dogg, the correct term would be "Mr. Squirrel is in the Hizzy." Get it right woman!
