It was almost sunset (4pm) and in spite of high winds, our resident red squirrel appeared through the snowdrift for a late snack. He makes a hasty retreat when Rhonda spies him! Check out his burrow!
Happy New Year from our home to yours! 🥂🍻
My friend, Ruth, knit this hat - but I gathered the fiber and spun the yarn for it. The dark brown is Shetland sheep’s wool. The rest is a lighter wool blended with Abby, Falki and Libby fur. Those were 3 of my husband’s favorite dogs. ❤️ Aren’t the paw prints perfect?!
The warm winter hat I spun for my husband! It’s made from a blend of Shetland sheep’s wool and the undercoat of 3 of his favorite dogs.
Who knows the significance of this straggly stuffed doggy? Hint; I’ve treasured him for over 45 years … this time around. 🤍🖤🤍
