It’s National Hippo Day! [1] To celebrate, I have a new hippo pattern in the store:

Snouty Hippo Pattern
I never thought that snouty hippos would be such nosy hippos! Look at this:

Information about stitching and materials is in the shop.
[1] I learned long after planning this all out that this National Hippo Day originates with the game Second Life. National Hippo Appreciation Day, which has a Facebook page, is July 24. Perhaps we’ll speak about hippos again then.
