    Australian firefighters and kittens … Oh my! Why is it so warm here all of a sudden.

      I can only say that i was more interested in the kittens.

      think that I need to have something checked or tuned up.

      Probably a good thing he put them last… (I will have to wait until I get home, sadly…)

    Could you imagine telling your knitting circle that you have a service project and then giving them the dimensions for an elephant?

      😂

      My mom’s church’s stitchers’ group had a scarf sale last year and my mom bought me one for Christmas; it’s so long it might fit an elephant… (seriously, it’s like 8 feet long; I had to fold it in half twice to measure it…it’s pretty, though).

        Could it be a Doctor Who scarf from the Tom Baker era?

          Okay, it’s not quite that long…and it’s blue/cream/brown.

      I would happily volunteer! The heffalumps look so happy in their blankies.

      Though I’m still not sure those blankets are knitted, even with knitting needles. The stitches look like crochet, so they wouldn’t actually have saved on the yarn. (Crochet takes more yarn than knitting.)

    Cookie Crumb’s kisses look so very sweet.

    I love everything about today’s post! Elephants in sweaters! I think I’d learn to knit to help out with that project. Doggos with jobs! I’d heard of a few of them but electronic sniffing dog, and surfing therapy dog wiere new to me. Ack, Cookie Crumb is beyond sweet!! I wouldn’t mind adopting that lil nugget. There were animals in that video??? 😂😂😂😂 I was a just little distracted. And yes it got warm in here, whew. Lawdy, lawdy, lawdy what a nice Christmas present.
