Kate: in progress

Hello all! I'm so glad this KAL exists, else I would have kept looking and dreaming about toys, but never actually casting on. I'm nearly finished (well, with the big part anyway) on Kate, who is a bit bigger than I'd imagined (guess I should use a ruler next time... :)

I'm using the yarn the pattern recommended, but am doing it on two circulars instead of dpns. Here are some pics of my progress:

and a cute one for scale, as you can see Kate will be nearly as big as my little girl, who is already in love with her new toy :)

Hopefully, I'll have a finished project to share soon!

Thanks for looking!
