I Love Harry!

The Harry Bear, that is.  A co-worker had given me two skeins of Berroco Chinchilla, about 2 or 3 years ago.  It's a lovely yarn, but somewhat novelty-ish and I had no idea (other than yet another scarf that I don't need) what to use it for.  Then I hit on the Harry Bear and that's all I needed to spur me onto another project and something new.  I just love him!

I got hooked on the pattern and started another bear, before I finished the first one! AND, I actually bought more (non-natural fiber, no less) yarn! Youngest grandson doesn’t have a bear, so Grammy had to knit one up right away!

The 2nd bear is much smaller than the first, even though I double stranded the yarn. He’s going to be very soft!

And the great news about the additional purchase of yarn is: Somehow, the skein had fallen apart and was a tangled mess.  Naturally, I asked about a discount since I'd be spending time unraveling and rolling a ball.  I got the yarn for .65!!  That's 65 CENTS!  I can prove it!
