Presenting Kathy’s scarves!

I finished Kathy’s scarves on Monday night! Here they are:

I love them! In fact, I love them so much that I was tempted to tell Kathy that a wild Heffalump had eaten the package en route to the post office. But a deal is a deal, so they went winging off on Tuesday morning, and they should arrive on the 24th – just in time for Christmas.

And, because people have been asking about our delightful Fritz and playful Tigress, here’s a shot of the photography “studio” – complete with some very helpful feline assistants. (Thanks to Lieven for all the photos!)
