L bear was finished this evening.
I decided to name her Loretta, for Cher’s character in the movie Moonstruck. I love that movie… https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wMtRKgzI27c
Loretta makes ten bears in my stash, and therefore a boxful to send to Minnesota, them on to Africa, where they’ll bring smiles to the faces of kids affected by HIV/AIDS.
I miss being able to knit 5 and send them together with my friend’s 5, but since she’s moved away, I either have to make bigger batches or buy smaller boxes!
At any rate, I do enjoy knitting these bears, and am looking forward to their photos with their new owners
adorable!!
sadly, your friend has yet to make a single bear this year so you are knitting and shipping for both of us!
I’m taking a bear break now for the Mini Mania KAL, and I think I should work hard on the Pop blanket for a while… But the itch to start a new bear is a strong one!
