Lance

Lance is the kind of personal assistant every high-pressure executive lies in bed and dreams about. This self-assured ox is a calendar ninja and smooth-typing organiser, able to successfully rearrange a whole week’s worth of appointments in ten minutes. The most discreet operator you’ll ever meet around the water cooler, despite his age he comes from a more civilised era of office politics and averaged a whopping 65 words per minute in his recent online touch typing test (self-enforced, of course).

This is a TOFT pattern from the book ‘Edwards Menagerie: The new collection’. Lance was the first mini crochet animals that I made. He was tricky and very fiddly to make, but he looks adorable.
