the first animals came as a result of me not being able to find a wedding gift for an odd couple about to tie the knot. i figured it would be interesting to try and animatize my view of each of them in the forms of wool jersey. next came a baby shower, and this time the idea of monster babies appeared. by this time i was hooked, i began having favorites that i couldn't sell. and then friends starting asking me to make particular ones for their significant others..and now i can't seem to stop making them...it is kind of wierd how certain ones turn out to look like certain people.
