Materials: 100% cotton yarn, size 7 knitting needles, and two 5mm glass beads (optional)
Special Instructions :
Before casting on, string 2- 5mm black bead onto your yarn, for later use as Mabel's eyes :o)
ALSO....on rows 30, 34, and 38.....the * means to "cross 2 front". This is done by knitting into the SECOND stitch on the needle, then knitting into the FIRST stitch, and letting both stitches drop off the needle at the same time.
