Dear Ellen,
I finished my Bright Lights scarf, the 2nd 2-row Noro striped scarf that I’ve done. Dale was off playing, but Max eagerly stepped up to model. Isn’t he quite the fashionable dog? I actually think it looks better on him! Of course, I imagine with a ski jacket it will make a better appearance than with a workout tee. Ruby tried modeling too, but she wasn’t quite as much of a natural.
The weather today is gorgeous — sunny and the radiant is warm, but it’s windy and the warmth blows away quickly. Yesterday we had on-and-off flurries. I tried to catch one of them from my office window by playing with the exposure setting on my camera. You get the idea.
I have some straightening to do in the off chance that Jenny’s car is fixed quickly and she does decide to visit this week. Gotta go!
Love, Jan

Max does make a good (god?) model. I love a fashionable dog in a scarf.

Oh, my, Ruby is almost swallowed! Max looks handsome.

Dogs (Gods!) are such good sports!

Oh, I remember when Ruby wouldn’t have even been able to peek thru:*)

Ok, now I’m singing the ‘Max and Ruby’ song… sweetly obliging dogfaced kids you have there ;^) The scarf is gorgeous, I just love those scarves.

I like the colors in the Noro scarf. Simple patterns are so rewarding sometimes. Max looks like a great model, too.

Love the scarf model
(And the scarf — it’s beautiful!)
