Gal's Best Friend

 
 

So here is my darling dog, Smiley. She's just had surgery, a basketball injury, she blew out her knee. She is resting and healing well. She is a dog of mature years, and the jump shots and fast breaks have taken their toll on her!

She has been invaluable while I've been knitting a baby shower gift this week. Actually, this is not the yarn that went into the baby gift, this was old yarn for playing with. Smiley is now using all for legs again, thank goodness.
