Bats are native? Okay, weird. Because dood, that's a long way to fly when you're a bat.
Birds I get. Bats, not so much.

I'm left-handed, and I work with a weird tension - most patterns don't work for me until I've either fiddled with them or reworked them completely.
I'm also left-handed, and made this pattern for AnotherAlaskan for Christmas. I used the flat pattern, because my 10.5 circulars are too long, and it came out a little small. I recommend using the larger size. It's so fun to make, though, and I think it went over well as a gift. I need to get more suitably ugly yarn now!
