Purple Turtle

I like to always have a simple knitting project around for those quiet moments.  While working on the shell for Sheldon the Green I cast on Sheldon the Purple.  That gave me a body and four legs to work on.  And did I need it.  Parts of the shell is complicated and needs concentration. 

As soon as my daughter heard my son was getting a turtle she wanted one too.  As it turns out back when I bought the yarn to make the first Sheldon I also bought yarn to make a purple one too.  Which is funny because I had no idea I was going to have a second child, let alone a girl.  I believe I was just trying to order enough yarn to get free shipping.
