Alice has a new family! There was an adoption day yesterday where all parties involved were struck with love at first sight. We talked to them this morning and Alice is adapting very well to her new home. One more doggy to go!
I finished these on the way home from adoption day:
CannahgettaWOOHOO?
Which means that I finally get to start something new. Something that isn’t a sock. After a fair amount of deliberation, I’ve decided to make the polo shirt before the lacy top in the Nashua book. Mostly because I find the idea of several feet of stockinette very appealing right now. I don’t know why.
Lime! It’ll match my very loud butterfly skirt.
Hooray for adoption day success!
Congrats on Alice’s new home!!! YEA! We’re still waiting for apps to come in for Miss Trixie, aka The Princess.
Hurrah for the adoption! You guys get puppy caregivers of the year award.
That new top in Limey green is going to be lovely.
Yay! Alice and her new family looks very happy!
That polo sweater is oh so cute…before you start knitting go and print out the pattern errata for it if you haven’t done so… (the book has a lot of errata…lol)

Yay for Alice! I like the Polo Shirt. Plus it should be versatile.
It’s such a pretty colour for the Polo T and I love knitting tockinette!
The socks are lovely. I’m so happy you’re finding homes for the dogs.
I love that picture of Alice & her new humans. I ove htat Alice’s new Dad is holding her AND has his arma round the wife. Very Sweet! And I completely agree with Laura (Hi Laura!) that shirt is SO *you*!
That’s awesome news! They all look great together!
Good to hear you only have one more to go!
Woo Hoo….glad Alice got a new home and for finishing your socks!! I love the way the yarn turned out striping rather than pooling which seems to be on all my socks of late!

Oh good for ALice! Good for you. What great dearhearts you have.
Lime eh? THat is such a great summer color. NOthing wrong with good old straight stockinette. As I say, Stockinette and the livin is easy!
I like the polo. I should get that book. Greetings from the Knitty Cafe, right? I think that’s the one that “Cassie” on Guiding Light is in.
Woohoo on the socks! And I like the polo shirt–the lime will be so cute and summery!
Alice is so lucky to have found you to find her a new home š
I bet you’ll have your polo top done by this time next week! Can’t wait to see a model shot with your loud butterfly skirt.
Oh lucky day!! So glad the doggie has been adopted – that’s wonderful! The socks are lovely and that top is going to be gorgeous!!
“Woo hoo” on the socks! They look fantastic, perfect spring colors. And congrats to Alice, what a special thing to be a part of.
WooHoo! Pretty Socks, Em, and I’m so happy Alice will have a new family.
Congratulations to Alice for finding a family!
And your yarn looks nice and summery — like the color of melons and grapes and cucumbers and kiwi!
Iām so happy for Alice and her new family! She was lucky to have found her way to you and your husband. I love the lime green! Yay for the socks!
Very happy for Alice, and very happy for you too. I’m so glad to hear that she found a loving home to go to. Your socks are beautiful and I love the colour of your next knit.
Hurrah for Alice’s adoptoin!! And the finished sock!!
