Since we don't have cardinals here and love them, I decided to create one using the Penguin pattern. (Next up, maybe a bluebird, robin, or since I have left over penguin-yarn a crow?)
Today I've been playing with my new toy! Instead of this,
I can now do this.
Oh my, what fun! I did 5 skeins of yarn this afternoon in no time at all. Dick loves my toy also as he did NOT enjoy holding the yarn and DOES like to use that chair....that is if Ginger doesn't get there first.
HAPPY NEW YEAR, EVERYONE! May this year that began with 1/1/11 be filled with wonder and joy for you and your families!

Happy New Year and I hope that you enjoy some good health in 2011. Love the sweater, and the little girl is such a darling
So cute, love the cardinal. How smart to adapt the penguin pattern.
Happy New Year to you also!
Happy New Year!
The cardinal is adorable!!
Love that little cardinal. He makes me smile.
What a cool way to wind yarn! Enjoy.
Love your baby cardinal...can't wait to see the ones to follow....
Wow -- that's a super duper swift! Much better than chair arms or human arms :)
happy swifting!
Cute little birdie!
Congrats on your new yarn toy! I remember two things I dreaded when I was young, one was holding the yarn and the other was stirring the pudding. :)
Happy New Year Judy!
I love the cardinal, Judy! They're my favorite bird. My daughter just showed me (via Skype) several small knitted toys that a friend gave their 4-mo old baby. Love these small, knitted creatures!
Your little cardinal is so cute! Have fun with your new toys. I'm hoping to cast on for the Mystery 220 tonight.
What a cute little cardinal! I think the blue bird will be cute too! I like your new toy!Happy New Year!!
Nice swift, and a cute little cardinal. Enjoy both your new toys.
Wishing you a fantastic new year too. What a cute cardinal.

Take good care of you continue on!
It's cute when getting the first tooth lost - David is now a school kid :-)

It never occurred to me that you wouldn't have a swift!!!! YOU, of all people, needed THAT!!!
