Cats, scarves, and secret pals

Joey sitting outside on top of one of the cars guarding his yard from ............
Charlie (white dot above and to the right of the mailbox) who is sitting across the street at my neighbor's house. What's he watching? My neighbor's cat who is up in one of the trees after trying to get a bird. Oscar was sitting in the driveway watching Joey on the car but she left before I got the camera.
"Mom, who do you know in IL?" "No one." "Well someone sent you something and it doesn't look like it's from a terrorist." Treats from my secret pal for ISE4.
And I'll leave you with pics of the scarf I made for Yolanda from my MSN knitting group. She received it yesterday and it seems to be a hit.
This is without a doubt one of the most fun things I've made in a long time. I loved the pattern (a modified drop stitch) and loved the way it looked with the yarn (Opal batik). Just the right amount of funk with warmth, lightness, and softness.
