You have met both the foxes, the pattern I bought included a raccoon and a badger.
Have I mentioned how impressed I am with Barbara Prime? The bodies, the arms and legs are all the same, but each head is really unique to each animal. She really captures their essence very well.
Look how elongated the badger head is. Also, no tail.
Only when I started editing the photos did I notice something is missing! His nose and mouth! I showed him to my knitting friends this weekend and nobody noticed.
From the back, these fellas look just fine.
Side by side with his buddies, the lack of features stands out.
Even if the fox is a little ‘off’, he isn’t symmetrical, but there is a big difference between an off kilter ear and no nose.
This looks better doesn’t it?
Especially with that twinkly eye. I may have mentioned that these three critters aren’t going to a baby. Sometimes you can replace safety eyes with embroidery. I really feel that the charm of these guys is by using these eyes.
Time for another group photo, now I am happy.
