...Al, the alpaca. (Or if you wish to address him by his full name, Sr. Alberto Pérez de los Andes.)
I adopted him from the Alpaca Direct booth at Stitches West. He protects my monitor and watches me work.
Since this is WIP Wednesday, I guess I should show at least one WIP. Here are the Lenore socks (ignore the little bulge on the side--the cup edge makes it pop out like that).
The cuffs are as long as I want them, so it's time to start the heel flaps. Yay!
And, I am *this* close to finishing the Seahorses needlepoint. My goal is to finish that this month and get it out of my face. I'll post a picture when it's finally done. (I am so ready to mark this off of my WIP list!! )

Glad to see "Sr Al" has a name, was very concerned about that...now can you tell me how you came up with that name, and do tell how he became knighted already??
The explanation:
Sr. = Señor (He's not a knight, he just wishes he was. Lol!)
Alberto because he has to be "Al the Alpaca" and he's Hispanic.
Pérez because it's a fairly common name in Peru and to honor my parents who loved to listen to Pérez Prado when I was little.
de los Andes because that's where he's from.
...I know, you had to ask!
