The Little Cow Backpack - Oz

I wanted to make some animal backpacks and decided to start with a cow, which would be largely white it color.  Not a wise color choice, but I had lots of white yarn so thought that'd just be it.  I don't usually use any patterns as I find they limit my creativity somewhat, and so had to trial n error to get there.  My idea was to create a broader tummy, with limbs attached and a cow face on the cover.  This took me a while as I was trying to get the shaping right.  I was kind of ambitious as I want the pink portion on the tummy (as the stomach) but didn't want to cut of the pink yarn every row.  When I eventually finished it, I like it so much that it has to go to my girl.  Am still thinking if I want to offer this in my Etsy shop. :)
