Surprise! You've got half a turtle.

Since my goal is to destash and not to finish a certain ratio of projects vs. starting them, I've felt free to start the occasional project when the whim takes me. Even so, I wasn't expecting this to be my post for today--

--but he's really very cute, even if his shell and legs aren't done!

I'm doing him in Swish Worsted (a couple of balls I had lying around to compare colors), size 3.5mm needles. It's turning out nicely, although I have my doubts as to whether I'll actually have enough of the light green to follow the pattern exactly -- I may end up using some dark green for some of it. No harm done, though!

I also have some other single balls of yarn sitting around, some in the adorable leopard tortoise colors. I might have to have more than one turtle!
