Contrary to my expectations, I managed to (effectively*) finish my yarn bowl on Wednesday after all!



(Click for a larger version of the photo.)

Here's the yarn bowl and also the fish, in their no-longer-current glory; they're in the "greenware" state in this photo, which means they haven't been fired even once yet. I'm pretty sure they're undergoing their first, or "bisque", firing this weekend, and that I'm going to get to do some glazing on Monday, but I'd need to check the schedule to be sure 😂

In any case, I'm pretty pleased with them so far! I'm looking forward to the fun things I'll get to do with them in the glazing stage 😁

I have been informed that the placement of the crochet hook holes and yarn catching wave on the bowl make it look "distressed", and that "it looks like it was dropped and having a crisis about it." I'm sure it'll appreciate all my hard work in the end, though 😜


* I did end up having to stop by very briefly on Thursday afternoon to touch up the base, but that's nowhere near as much work as I was expecting.
