Meet my new assistant Duffy ...

She is wonderful: she's my alter-ego, my perfect double (who is actually a "perfect" size so can wear my sweaters better than I), she works cheap, and she doesn't talk back ...

Here she's wearing one of my favorite (and oldest sweaters) -- an anniversary sweater that I designed/made for dh on our 5th wedding anniversary when we were in Austria.  It no longer fits him (ooops ... maybe I shrunk it on purpose?!) and I love it!  The vest is one of my newest designs -- "Memories of Eire" -- and will be published soon.

Where has Duffy been all my (designing) life?

Happy knittin'
