Another attempt out of The World of Knit Toys. I like this one a bit better, as it was much less frustrating to shape. It was just knit flat and then stuffed and sewn together, very simple and fairly rewarding.
I didn't like how they gave it that ugly embroidered mouth, so I left it out, but under-stuffed it a little to give it a little kisser. Oh, and I decided to omit the bottom fin, since it would just get in the way / look funny, or you would just never even see it.
My little cousin absolutely adores the movie Finding Nemo, so I'm thinking that I'll save it as a birthday or holiday gift for her.
He’s gorgeous! I think I might have to get that book…
