I have just started to knit a wonderful wallaby and was wondering if anyone has a picture of one without the hood? I was also wondering how hard the pocket is to do? I was thinking of just leaving it off because I’m not sure I could do it. 
Wonderful Wallaby
This was the second thing I ever knitted! The pocket was surprising simple to do…when I knit my second one, I used a latch rug hook to pull the yarn thru and that was much easier. I don’t have a picture of one w/out the hood, but if you do a search here for ‘wonderful wallaby’, or posts by bubba, you will see pictures of the first one I did.
Good luck!
