Jo Jo the Giraffe

Jo Jo is the latest stuffie to fly off the hook. Jo Jo is a pattern by Andrea at Knits and Knots. Isn't he adorable? I love the way he turned out!



I'm generally wary of intarsia, but the chart was super clear and very easy to follow. The way the mane is worked is really clever too. I think Jo Jo will be a project I make on a fairly regular basis for baby showers from now on.

Jo Jo has a matching blanket too that is really cute.

I might be posting sporadically over the next few weeks, because we have 5 parties in 4 weeks and Pi's day camp starts next week. It already seems like the summer is going to fly by. I'll try to be as regular as possible, though.

Really cute giraffe! I can't do intarsia. I always get the different yarn colors tangled, and I have such a hard time following the charts.
