That is the most adorable chicken I have ever seen! Your friend doesn't deserve it. ;-)

That must be a really great friend. To get such a sweet looking chicken. Im just sayin.

Danni said...

You are a good friend, Mim. What a sweet gesture, knowing how much your friend wants chickens and all. Do you knit donkeys, too? :-)

That is one amazing chicken!

I wish my MIL was alive, she would love it and be able to make it too, she could do anything!

Mim said...

Gail: Thanks!

Michelle: She is too cute, isn't she? Hmmm, maybe not and I am kind of missing Mrs. Stripes. Perhaps I should ask M to bring her home, you know, just for a visit?

Marc: Well, I don't know about that. LOL

Danni: I try. If there is a pattern out there I probably could. Hmmm, maybe I should design one myself. Have to think on that.

CHfW: Thanks for stopping by! I love to knit and am hoping to reach the point that I can look at something and just make it. Not there yet. I still need patterns most of the time.
