Team Gb Olympic Hammer Throw Lemming

I've been looking for an excuse to make this little guy for ages ever since I found the pattern on Planet June's blog. Then Ravelry decided to do a knitting-and-crochet Olympics and boom - excuse given!

This is my entry to the Toy Toss. Easy enough to crochet, although eyelash yarn is a bugger to work with (makes great looking hair though I have to admit) and my wire is too thin to support her on it's own so needs a ballast (hence the handy rock!). Fingers crossed!
