Got some 2 for $5 yarn at JoAnn's....

Out of commission

So I have been out of commission for a couple days... Only a cold, not to worry... I am back ready to work... So a couple weeks ago I stumbled across a pattern, and I had to try it! Still working but here is the beginning.... I thought for Xavier's package, I would include one of these and a copy of the movie. Its one of the Minions from Despicable Me the movie..
(this is the example by the creator)
