Wild creatures

At last weekend's retreat, I knitted a small octopus toy for Bitty, using the technique I learned on this video:

And adding my first attempt at a pom pom:

Bitty was intrigued for a minute, but it's no Thomas the Train. My husband and I enjoy throwing it around, though- it's like we're at a hockey game. Hope to add eyes to it sometime, but I think I'll try making the octopus into a cute hat or puppet next time. 

I stuffed the doll Sunday while watching Little Bit- he was otherwise occupied. 

Hope it's always this easy to get him in the shower!
