Addendum

Well, Lilah has been sheared.



I did get her a t-shirt this time. It is one of those little newborn side-snap shirts. Works like a charm! She doesn't even seem to mind it, well, not in comparison to her misery over loosing her lovely fur anyway. 3.5oz of prime angora, plus the second cuts and the massive amount of fur from her underside that filled the dustpan to overflowing.
Also, I did forget (how, I don't know) to give the Jason update -- my other disappointing news of the week. His tour has been extended another 40 days, meaning he won't be home until mid-August. He is still healthy, tho, so your prayers and good vibes are working. Keep it up, please!

Lilah's ears look about a foot long now that she's been shorn... Can't wait to feel the fiber!

Its great that Jason is safe. You'll all be camping before you know it. You know he's in my prayers.

Yikes - what a difference a few hours makes, huh? She's cute in her little shirt though. I think she might need one of those doggy ones with a skull & crossbones as "protest" though.
Sorry to hear about Jay... our thoughts & prayers continue!

Whoa....she's like a smurf now! But, adorably cute, of course. For next time, you'll have to knit her an angora sweater!

Lilah has a mullet! Too cute.

Sorry to hear about Jay. As always, he's in my thoughts.

Thank you for the kind comments, and I will share my little treasurers I hope to get in Chicago! Can't wait to see what new yarn you will be coming up with! It is just gorgeous.
