Love, love, love!
One of his gifts: a sheep hat creation for walking the dogs. Pattern is Classic WWII Watch Cap.
This hat pattern was probably knit at least a million times during World War II, and remains one of the most enduring hat designs. Watch a movie or television program which takes place during the winter months, and somewhere in each outdoor frame will be someone wearing this hat.

(sheep were added as a whim to match the dogs' coats)

ReplyDeleteHappy Belated Birthday to Gene. Hey, 65 is not so old! At least not when you find yourself over 60 and only a few years away from that age.
ReplyDeleteI love the smooching critters photos and the sheep knitting.
Happy Birthday Gene :) Love the sheepy knits Nancy :)
