Her mom was all about setting up the photo shoot once I explained the magic of the knitting blog! That means, my friends, that you get to finally see this long awaited photo!

Oh, and you probably want some proof that I was really in Africa? Here you go:

Now I'm going to try and sleep a bit more so that I'm not too jet lagged tomorrow. Hope I succeed!
Posted by Jon at August 26, 2005 03:49 AMAWWWW!!! All that work was (probably) worth it - although I'm still convinced you were crazy!
What, no intarsia blankets for the cheetahs?
Posted by: maeve at August 26, 2005 07:40 AMYup, that picture makes all of that work worth it. And thanks for the big kittie picture, too.
Yay, you're back! I demand that we meet now.
Posted by: Em at August 26, 2005 09:22 AMWelcome back--have a good nap!
She is just lovely. The blanket is wonderful, as are the cats. Thanks for sharing.....
Posted by: Cynthia at August 26, 2005 09:38 AMYou are so right - she definitely needed a blanket... she looks so peaceful in it. :)
Those cheetahs are amazing!!
Posted by: Holly at August 26, 2005 09:57 AMaw, I love the photo of the baby and her rosetta blankie! She looks perfect!
Posted by: Diana at August 26, 2005 11:58 AMFinally you are back !
Rosetta was a very nice blanket but it looks so much better with the baby inside !
That is one beautiful baby wrapped in a blanket of love.
Posted by: Donna at August 26, 2005 04:00 PMI just thought that blanket was beautiful---seeing the baby all cuddled up inside was definitely an awwwwwwww moment. I look forward to seeing more photos from your adventure in Africa.
Welcome back...
Posted by: Ann at August 26, 2005 04:17 PMYea...you are back. Love the pictures - from babies to wild animals...I am certain that there is a connection there!
Posted by: Darci at August 26, 2005 04:52 PMThe blanket looks AWESOME! And the baby, too cute!
Posted by: Kristine at August 27, 2005 03:03 PMAwesome Rosetta & Baby! Really cool pics of cheetahs!
I'm just wondering...what yarn did you use for the baby and the cheetahs? :-)
Nah, it's good to have you back in NYC, safe and knitting on more baby blankies! I'm always astounded by your perseverence, creativity, and impeccable timing.

P.S. Cute self-pic awhile back in July - don't be self-conscious! Put it out there. *hehehe*
