Meerkat Update

I wasn't going to post pictures of the progress of the meerkat, but after completing one of the legs and giving him (Murphy as I have affectionately called him) another brush. I am really really happy with how he is coming along. He is really begining to look like a meerkat. So I have taken some pictures of him while he is still in pieces to show his progress. 

I should be finished Murphy tonight. He is made with Patons Spirit Mohair and brushed with a slicker brush (either cat or dog fur brush). The self striping yarn has given a great effect to the fur. I have also used a bamboo yarn that brushes up to give a lovely soft short fur effect.
