I Tried My Hand at Duplicate Stitch

I finished off felted glove #1 last night (except for the thumb, that's to come).  I tried duplicate stitch for the first time and ended up with this.

I did the paw print free hand, what do you think?  How does it look... did you know it was a paw print?  I'm not opposed to doing it again if necessary.

I was going to have someone at my LYS show me how to duplicate stitch, but rather than waiting (and making you wait) I tried it myself.  Unless I'm missing something, it couldn't be easier.  Is it my experience in cross stitching that helped?  Is it my understanding of the knit stitches?  Or is it just really really easy?  I don't know, and I don't care because it worked and the first one is done!
