A crafty introduction

When I'm not reading or working, I enjoy doing a variety of hand-crafts. I've most recently finished:
    a pair of Dalek patterned, wool-bamboo blend mittens

Daleks are Doctor Who villains, for the un-initiated

    and my very own plush Snowy the dog

Likewise, Snowy is intrepid boy-reporter Tintin's faithful friend

In progress I have I knitted squid (photos coming soon, I hope).

My big project of the moment though, has been a large set of finger puppets for a friend to take on a mission trip to the Dominican Republic. 
Here are some of my favorites so far.
