In Triplicate

This year, the Christmas order from my boss came in March.  She sent me an email with a subject line reading "These are really, really cute… Christmas presents for the boys this year?" The body of the email contained one image.


I sat on the pattern for a couple of months and decided to get them done so I could be wide open for the start of the Christmas Sweatshop.

My son happily modeled one for me.  It's small for his 10-year-old head, but that's okay.  It's made for a 3-year-old head.



I must say, these are impossibly adorable.  I left off the buttons, but otherwise I made no modifications to the pattern whatsoever.  There were none needed.  I even used the recommended Thick & Quick.


They worked up fast as lightening, the only finicky bit being the ears.

I will most likely end up making one for myself.  Because a grown woman wearing a fox hood is completely acceptable, right?
