Knitting Goes on the Whale

Well, I got the throat grooves sewn onto the skeleton today! I had some help from my super knitting instructor, and it went pretty quickly.

It's just basically sewn on with big stitches that go through the garbage bags and around bits of the snow fencing. Once the side pieces that will go above it are knit, they will overlap the edge of the throat piece and be sewn on with nicer stitches that will be a bit more hidden.

The big puckers that run down the middle of the throat are basically anchor points used to center the knitting on the belly. Once more knitting is on the whale, they'll be cut out and the throat should have a nice curved shape underneath the whale.

Next up: knitting the rest of the belly!
