No Shadows in Sight. BING!

February 2, 2010
By Kim Werker


It’s grey and rainy in Vancouver, but spring’s pretty much already started so I’m not too worried about any unpleasant prognostications today. BING!

Regardless, instead of passing out from exhaustion at 7:30 last night, I parked myself on the couch in front of the television and finished off my groundhog (huge thanks to June Gilbank for such a fabulous pattern) for the Groundhog-along. As I mentioned in my post announcing this absurd little crochet-along, his name is Ned Ryerson, a name befitting as you can see from the photo to the right.

ETA: Check out more completed groundhogs on June’s blog.

Not familiar with Ned Ryerson? Educate thyself:

And the best follow-up:

Project specs:
Started: 9 January 2010
Finished: 1 February 2010
Pattern: Groundhog, by June Gilbank
Yarn: Red Heart Designer Sport
Hook: 3.75mm

So, has spring already hit where you are? And anyway, will you be watching the movie tonight?

Help me raise $3000 to support pancreatic cancer research! This damn disease is my family's kryptonite, but our collective superpowers can help thwart its evil blight.

    No Spring here in CT, USA… in fact it's supposed to snow tonight. ::sigh::

    thanks for the reminder, we did want to watch Groundhog's Day today at some point :)

    Heh, one year we watched it a couple of times in a row just, you know, for fun… I highly recommend the dubbed in French version, if your DVD has that option. :-)
