Hair Bear








I finally did something with all the dog hair I've been saving. I knitted a teddy bear and a big heart. The bear is all Border Collie and the heart is Border Collie and Sheltie. The bear is so huggable, just what I needed...

The recycled jacket


It's done! Well, it needs something to hold it closed in front. If it hangs open, it also puckers out in back...but, hey, it's my first piece of wearable clothing that isn't just a flat rectangle. And, 100% recycled! Hope it didn't shrink too much with washing. It's hanging in the camper and drying as I write. I did wear it for a few minutes this morning and it's warm, warm, warm, like putting on a thick wool sock.
