Needles: set of 4 DPNs (I used size 2.5 mm or US 2)
Yarn: Scraps ... I used some acrylic from Christmas crafts ... white with a thread of silver twisted through it. No label on it, but not quite as thick as worsted and not as thin as sock (helpful, right?!)
Gauge: not necessary; use the needles that suit the yarn
Cast on 3 sts onto one DPN
Kfb of each st, using a separate DPN for each st you knit into. You will end up with 2 sts on each of three DPNs (6)
Join for knitting in the round
*Kfb, K1, repeat from * to end (9)
*Kfb, K2, repeat from * to end (12)
*Kfb, K3, repeat from * to end (15)
K 10 - 12 rounds, until the piece measures approx. 1.5 inches
Kfb of every st (30)
*Kfb, K1, Kfb, K3, Kfb, K3, repeat from * to end (39)
Bind off and weave in ends
Use a bit of scrap yarn or embroidery thread for the eyes
