This is awesome…Now you need to put up a Wallace, Yes?
Also, any ideas for a JiJi cat from the Studio Ghibli film, Kiki’s Delivery Service?

Wow, long, sorry bout that.
Surprisingly a lot of people ask about a Wallace pattern too. I guess Gromit needs his partner-in-crime. It’d be a hoot making all his teeth. I’m a big fan of cats and Jiji is especially so cute. I know there’s a great pattern out there already though!
my family are wallace and gromit fans. do you have a gromit pattern ?
Hi DJ, the Gromit pattern is available within this entry. I hope you enjoy!
hi sharon …. loving the pattern thus far, but can you clarify the erratta ?
the arms count is wrong …. line 2 will only increase this round by 3, thus stitch count will not be 12 etc.
did you mean to ‘ 2sc in each stitch’ …. this will give the correct count ?
thanks
Lin.
ps….. we really gotta have wallace … any progress there ? (will be happy to pay for wallace pattern !)
