Dewey the Raindrop

I thought the Mushkins weren't enough, so I made a little raindrop named Dewey. His current position is perfect for being a meteorologist or for lending a comforting hand.

Materials:

• 3 skeins of Red Heart brand, I don't in particular remember the actual name of the color (I threw away the wrapper :))


• 4 US 8 dpns


• Embroidery scissors


• Tapestry needle

Abbreviations:

• K2tog - Knit 2 stitches together


• Kfb - Knit in the front of a stitch and in the back of the same stitch

Piece:

Cast on 6 stitches and distribute between 3 dpns

Row 1: Kfb into every stitch (12)

Row 2: Knit

Row 3: Kfb into every stitch (24)

Row 4-13: Knit

Row 14: K2tog into every stitch (12)

At this point stuff to where piece looks like an egg.

Row 15: Knit

Row 16: K2tog into every stitch (6)

Row 17-19: Knit

Row 20: K2tog into every stitch (3)

Row 21-22: Knit

Break yarn and thread stitches onto tapestry needle. Pull stitches together and weave in the ends.

Arms:

Cast on 2 stitches on one dpn. Work in I-Cord.

Knit 30 rows.

Bind off as if working flat and draw I-Cord through piece to where each side has an equal amount of length. DO NOT TAKE OFF OF TAPESTRY NEEDLE!! Poke needle through piece to where arm makes a handle-like loop. Weave in the ends.

Finishing:

Take black yarn and wrap around 1 stitch 4 times, repeat. Space eyes 2 stitches apart.

For the little glint, duplicate stitch down 5 stitches vertically. Weave in the ends for eyes and glint.
