Christmas Present

Dear Friend,

Merry Christmas! I swear I almost just wrote "marry".  My English is going to shit.  Anyway, I hope you like this little knitted dude.  I had him (her?) out on the living room table for a few days and people were just going nuts over him.  This was the most intense knitting/crochet project I've ever done and I think he turned out so good! Can you tell what he is supposed to be? A Loch Ness Monster! And I thought you would appreciate his color.  If he looks squished or his head isn't standing up or there's stuff coming out of him, just poke around with a skinny stick of some sort until he looks better.  He won't mind.  I had a good little bonding session with him one night before he went into the box, so if you ask him about me maybe he will tell you all about my life in China and how much I miss you.
Love,
Z
