Norwegian Totoro, FO



Pattern: Mimouna's Totoro (Norwegian)
Needles: size 4
Yarn: 100% hand spun Romney wool, dyed iwth indigo plant dye by Kathie Rayfield, Athol, ID. Tummy knit in cream Beaverslide worsted.

I used Google translate to get the gist of the pattern. A cover is placed in the bottom and knit in. My lid was too big so Totoro became rather bell-like and his tummy was a little too large. I stopped at 60 stitches for the tummy. It's a very nice pattern and I may have to try it again.

You did a great job, translaing my rather chatty pattern to english. He looks really cute with his round belly. :o)
