A Little Palatte Cleanser

The last two weeks were Spirit Week at Eat.Sleep.Knit (it's usually just one week, but they gave us a second week to finish the mascots). I decided to make a mascot stuffie partway through, so here is Confetti, the balloon dog! (I'm in the Puppy Floats Team.)

The pattern is Snooker the Balloon Dog, and he's knit and then folded together just like an actual balloon dog! I used Malabrigo Sock in the Parade colorway. It takes less than 50 yards. The knitting is easy, but there are some fiddly parts because you need to knit it tightly so the stuffing doesn't come out. The directions are clear, and I would absolutely make another one at some point.
