For the past month or so, I can only brush him if I keep him grounded by always having one hand on the end of him I'm not brushing. This seems unsettling for him, so every couple days I rub him down with a fragrance free dryer sheet. It'll be good when Spring finally comes. <br /><br />http://www.ravelry.com/people/stitcher75Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13945178460003091695noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25011882.post-46447100206398301412015-03-07T19:40:24.644-08:002015-03-07T19:40:24.644-08:00I am very interested in any good "beginner&qu...I am very interested in any good "beginner" darning method!
