Make Something Monday - Week Two

Well, last week I projected I would have a pair of knucks and a couple of stuffed animals. I managed to finish exactly one stuffed animal and one glove. About half of what I'd intended. At least what I made is cute, in my humble opinion.
Mister Fox's ears do look a little wonky in those pictures, but they are pointier and straighter than they look. Haven't been able to make him a tail, because I ran out of yarn. I am pretty sure I have another skein of it, but I've been a little too lazy to look.
The glove is a little big on me, but the person I am giving them to has bigger hands then me, so hopefully they will fit. If not, I will just felt them a little, it's what I did with a pair I made for myself last year and they turned out perfectly.
I haven't been digging working in the round lately. I used to knit everything in the round, even convert patterns to be in the round. It seemed easier for me then and required less finish work. Well, now I am converting everything to be knit flat. I find, though it's more work, it actually is easier (can zone out whilst knitting) and the finished product is better. Just takes a little more time.
I couldn't convert the knuckle mitts to be flat, though. Would take far too much finish work. Thus, there are runs in some spots which never used to be there before and I was dropping stitches like it was going out of style.
I just haven't had the motivation to knit lately. I am in a knitting funk all the way around! I've gone through these phases before and they always pass. I just hope this one passes soon, and I need to have a bunch of things for December!
What did you make this week?
