The holiday Google graphic that’s been changing has been SO CUTE. I mean, come on, knitting kangaroos? What could be better?
Graphics can be seen HERE. (As I post this, only the first four images have gone up, and it looks like Mama and Baby Roo were doing a little knitting, and then gave a strange-looking sweater to a kangaroo friend. Do you think she’ll be seen wearing it in the next image, with two heads, a big mama one and little baby one, poking out?) (Hey! I think Reader Garnprinzessin is right — that IS a Kangaroo Papa and Baby Roo knitting FOR Mama. Oh, that’s even CUTER. And say hello to Rachael’s gender-stereotyping. Sheesh.)
Okay, I’m home for the holidays in a few hours, so enjoy your family and whatever you’re doing this weekend, hug on someone, knit a little bit, and laugh a lot. Be kind. Knit a sweater for a kangaroo. (And a special hello to Reader Maria who hugged me at Royal Coffee yesterday — you made my day.)
Yay!
Garnprinzessin says
Huh? I was sooo happy that it was a kangaroo-man who was knitting. Thought so, because the one knitting was the one without the bag in the front…
Wish you a good weekend, too!

I saw that too! I think the “third” sleeve is for the tail? Just a guess ๐
You have a very happy holiday!
Michelle Balmert says

Merry Christmas!

I saw the roos last night–too adorable for description!
Have a great holiday yourself! Me, I’ll be putting together the wheel my hisband bought me. ๐

yeah, I think the 3rd sleeve is either for the tail or it’s a silly “he tried so hard but look at how he screwed it up” joke. Hoping it’s the former.

Thanks for posting about the google doodle. Just looked and the 3rd “sleeve” is actually a pouch for Baby! I’d seen the series starting a couple days ago, and was delighted to realize that it was Papa Roo doing the knitting. Have a wonderful holiday!
