Handmade sweater

My mom wants to THANK you all for your good wishes and good vibes. Today was not a super day either but at least much better than yesterday. Now, she is counting the days until she gets her Christmas Bonus!





To relieve her stress she decided to start a project. Hmmmm... I am not so sure about it. She is knitting a sweater for me! Many years ago she made a million (?) of sweaters for her family. She says that sweaters for humans are pretty easy but she has no idea about a doggie sweater. I appreciate her good intention but.... lets wait to see the result, ok?

Eduardo tagged me for a seasonal meme which I am a doing now and I will post it tomorrow.

Have a good night
Besos

    Oh, your mom sounds very talented. I never learned how to knit a sweater. That will be a good color on you too. Be sure to model it when she's done!!

    You are soooo lucky that you have a mom that knits! It is a wonderful skill to have!

    She can make you all kinds of fun stuff like blankets, hats, socks, etc.

    You are going to look soooo beautiful in your new sweater! I LOVE the color!

    Hi Lorenza
    I think that shade of violet will look really pretty on you.
    My mom had to spend her Xmas bonus on vet bills (I'm worth every penny). Mom doesn't remember a time when unexpected expenses came up at Xmas.
    Hope tomorrow is even better than today.
    Love Ruby

    Sweet Sweet Lorenza!!

    You have been so patient with me & Stella while we've been missing from blogging. Thank you for being such a good friend to us and coming by to check up on us.

    I'm glad to hear your mama is feeling a bit better, but we're sending extra goober smooches and some Aire hugs her way. Please give them to her for us, and take a few for yourself!

    I think that the sweater will be bootiful, seeing as how talented your whole family is. Can't wait to see you modeling it on the runway.

    We have a lot of catching up to do on your blog, so we'll be reading about your recent exploits for awhile, and we're looking forward to it!

    Goober love & smooches,
    Stanley
