'Hog Along Pieces-Parts

I finished up all my 'hog parts last night for the Groundhog-along.  I only have a couple more days to finish him up!

I'm having so much fun making this little 'hog.  Just look at his little mop of red hair!  I know he looks pissed (that's 'angry' for you brits, not 'drunk'), but he's just a little sleepy.  We stayed up too late watching Groundhog Day (it's available for streaming on Netflix.  rock!).

The fact that I''m supporting an independent designer just makes it even more awesome.  The pattern is only $5 on Planet June, so if you want to join the crochet-along, it won't cost much.  You probably already have everything you need to make one in your stash!

Anyone have any good suggestions for a punny name?  June suggested 'Hog Along Cassidy, which is pretty awesome.  Can you top that?!  'Cause, if you can't, I might need to make him a 10-gallon hat, too.

Hmm, now I am tempted to make an extra fat one and call him BOSS HOG!

msbusyfingers ... Great idea! I loved the Dukes of Hazzard when I was little. :)

Oh, wow, you are kicking my groundhog butt. Mine has a head and a little bit of body. Hoping to get to some serious crochet-time this weekend.

Personally, I'd name him Larry, after Chris Elliot's character in the film. Both are blonde. :-)

LollyChops ... My husband kept saying, "He looks like a ghost!" without his arms and legs. :) A brown ghost? Whatever, goofy. :) Thanks for the 'hog love!
