Giraffe!

 I'm participating in the 2012 Handmade Pay it Forward, and decided to make a giraffe for my friend because that is what she chose for her little girl's animal. I didn't find any patterns that I liked, so I made this one up! This is one of my first completely original patterns, and I couldn't be more thrilled with how it turned out. I'm thinking I might try to sell the pattern on Etsy, but if I decide not to, I'll definitely post it here.
 A special thanks goes out to my hubby for letting me know that my original design wasn't giraffe-like enough. Thanks to him, I elongated the neck and added the spots (because apparently my first try looked like a goat). I LOVE how the spots turned out, and I'm so glad Jeffrey convinced me to do them!
