Brown Sheep Squadron

  This is a 1st Armored Division soldier fixing the concertina wire to keep wandering sheep out of an Army compound.  Their wool and faces look just like our guys' desert BDU (Battle Dress Uniforms).  Too funny.

On the knitting front... I'm a little more than half done with the 2nd front piece of the Must Have Cardigan.  I also did the ChicKnits Shaker Rib Hat:

It's a quick and thick hat!

The week before last I'd forgotten that I took pictures in Joe's K-garten class after I did the spinning demo because they were on the letter "S".  I gave them each a piece of wool and a card with a sheep outline and spinning wheel on it.  They made up their own little souveniers.  Here are some of the kids:

I love to see the pics with children's faces. They must be very happy with their handmade souveniers !

Hmmm, does that give anyone else the idea of looking for desert camo variegated yarn?

The letter S has taken on a whole new meaning for me. Cool.

Excellent picture of the soldier and sheep. And what a great presentation for the K class! I love the little project.

I love the photo. I saw a guy Thursday at Bethsda wearing dessert BDUs and they reminded me of dirty sheep. The kids looked like they had fun.

Where do those wandering sheep belong / come from?
