I Don't Always Finish Projects On Time


This is Gonzo.  He's my version of Gonzo, anyway.  :-)  My brother and sister and I all love the Muppets, and Gonzo is Heidi's favorite.  Mom has a puppet pattern, so, years ago, I started making this little guy as a Christmas present for Heidi.  Many hours later, post-Christmas, I finally got his body done . . . then pants . . . then found little baby sneakers for him at a garage sale . . .

But he sat in her closet, shirt-less, for the last couple of years. 

He's finally clothed!  I knit up a little sweater-vest this winter with some leftover yarn.  I found a basic pattern for an American Girl doll sweater online (but I don't remember where) and just added some length.  It has a 3/4 opening in the back with a snap-closure, and I'm so glad it fits!  Gonzo is finally complete!  :-)
