Day 243 - Rosie and her debut

A brand new knitter Emily Schallert, decided for her first knitting project she would knit a chicken sweater for "Rosie", one of her favorite hens. And this determined young lady worked on it several days at 365 days on a Farm Yarn Shoppe .....and she did just that!!!

 And on group night we had three very specials guests! Emily, her mom, Chanin and "ROSIE"......


You never know who is going to be at our group meetings. I was thrilled. "Rosie" modeled her new fashion sweater!!!

Emily,..... I am so proud of your accomplishment!!!!

And Rosie was very professional on the runway....

Rosie is handled frequently by Emily and enjoys the attention!

By the way, Emily is only 10 years old.......what is next for this extraordinary knitter? We'll just have to wait and see!!!
