Poncho Pizzazz!

The Unikat poncho is finished -- well, sort of!  All it needs now is its fringe. I appologize for the hurried picture -- the "Diva" cat was closing in quickly -- everything is a potential cat bed around here!  It was a race to take the picture and rescue the poncho before she made her move and claimed it as "hers".  I had to use the 3rd ball that I recently ordered from Roxi to finish up the last 4 rows.  I actually finished knitting it on Monday night, but I decided to wait until this weekend to fringe it.  In the meantime, I have been planning my Christmas knitting projects.  I started one of those Wednesday night.  I love this pattern so much that I am using it for a poncho for my Christmas Pollyanna at work.  She loves red, so I decided to use the Lion Brand Color Waves yarn in Sunset Red for her poncho.  I will be posting pictures of it as it progresses.  Right now it is nothing more than a little red blob on the needles!  It is finally getting cold here now, and the leaves are losing their beautiful colors and falling off the trees.  Knitting weather has arrived!
