Remember that pretty afghan Barbara was making last week? Well, she finished it and it's a beauty. Who knew stash yarn could make such a pretty finished product? Good job Barb!

We had a visitor this week. Kathleen's daughter, Pat, was in town for a visit. We always enjoy seeing what her knitting basket holds.

And she didn't disappoint us. This is the sweater she was making during her last visit a few months ago. She bought the yarn at WEBS when we all went for a field trip last spring. It turned out beautifully.

Kathleen started the hoodie sweater from the yarn she picked last week. I can't wait to see it with it's buttons.

I finished a shawl of my own design which I named "Flirtacious". Karin modeled it for me and until I saw it from a distance on someone else I couldn't fully appreciate the ruffled edge. I'm going to try to write up the pattern. Uh-oh! That means a trip through the cobwebs of my brain. Scary!!!

Since next week is Christmas week we Chicks are not sure if we'll be knitting together. So let me take this opportunity to wish you all a warm and wonderful holiday and a healthy and prosperous new year.
