s'cool for cats
a little red scarf for Elio
We love the Jenny Linsky books (like The School for Cats) by Esther Averill. Elio asked for a scarf like the one Jenny's Captain Tinker knit for her, so I put this one together with one skein of Berroco Ultra Alpaca. It's twenty stitches across knit in garter all the way to about thirty inches with six little (3/4") pom poms attached with braided yarn.
Another great series for children is Cynthia Rylant's Mr Putter & Tabby. Santa tucked Mr Putter & Tabby Spin the Yarn into Elio's stocking--Mr Putter makes tea (and trouble) for his friend and neighbor's knitting group.

Sob! I missed out on Jenny entirely.
But I do want a sweater (well 2 really), like the jackets in this video:

hello, I read your site AND happen to work for the publishing company that publishes the Jenny books. We have a blog & I've (slowly) been collecting pix of Jenny look-alikes. May I post your photograph? I've hope also to post the adorable vest that another knitter made with Jenny on it. Drop me a line! www.nyrb.typepad.com
