Oh my! So cute! And I wish you had the pattern for sale
I have to knit a slug for my DH’s Uncle for Christmas. I’m trying to make one work, but it’s not anywhere resembling a slug

Anna, these gave me an idea for a pattern for you . . . I really like your patterns where two things are linked into one (like the snake and mouse, and the uh-ohs). How about a knitted hermit crab with interchangeable shells? Knitters could use whatever yarns they wanted for the shells, and make a bunch, similar to how people who own hermit crabs keep a lot of shells on hand. This probably sounds a little goofy when typed out, but might be very cute!
(And I don’t even have hermit crabs!

Great idea, Melissa! It’s actually not far from what I was thinking for the snails and slugs, which will be a free pattern sometime soon. The possibilities in snail shell colors are endless, and a snail without a shell is a cute little slug!
Unfortunately, hermit crabs aren’t so cute to me. The first time I met one, it gave me a LONG, HARD pinch….
