Thanks Carolyn. I actually put the project away today :crying: I bought the wrong kind of yarn (a mix up with aussie/UK/US yarn thing). I really thought it was something I could work around, but when I started on the smaller parts (foot base) I realised that worsted is far too thick for this project. But even after the body and legs (and one foot bottom) I realize that there is a LOT of knitting on the bear too. I have to wait until I can work out the right yarn and get some when we get back from our trip. The good thing is that my Dad didn't know I was making this, so he's no-the-wiser about NOT having this bear...[/i]
