I was able to see the Monks in person on their Walk for Peace, early morning.
Photos are not great sadly but very happy to see them.
Goodness they walk fast!

Rose's walk this morning, with one of her new coats.
Had to turn this one inside out because her fur is super soft, and slick, it stays on better this way.

Wish I was up to knitting a sweater for her.

Rose is older, I have to take her for walks because of her megacolon and arthritis.

Mia used to do that when she was younger, was a bit of a challenge but I liked the company.

Must get off the Internet so I can spin my yarn!!

Almost there in matching how much is in the other bobbin, then will ply it.
