Knitting, But Mostly Spoiled PetsSince I'm currently wearing the absolutely finished Ireland Cardigan (WOOOO HOOOOO! HAPPY DANCE!!!!!!!!), I was TOTALLY justified in starting a new sweater. With new yarn. Again, there was a tragic accident at Knit Happens involving my credit card and 11 balls of Debbie Bliss' Cashmerino Astrakan. Luckily, no one was injured - but, unfortunately, I absolutely HAD to take the yarn home with me.It wanted to grow up to be the Shawl Collared Cardi from Simply Soft. So far, I have a sleeve and a bit. It's exciting. Strangely, a previous credit card related accident at the Shop resulted in the purchasing of one of these fabulous lined baskets from Lantern Moon - I'm sorry. Did I say "lined basket?" Clearly, I meant "cat toy." Ooo - sparkly dangly ball. I'll try to rip it off. I can TOTALLY fit in here. Sure, it's a bit of a tight fit, but obviously, she brought this home for me to sit in, and I hate to disappoint. Would it have killed her to have gotten a slightly larger basket? Hmmm... maybe time to switch to the "kitty food light." Screw the basket - I'm sleeping on the Cormo. AND the Debbie Bliss Cashmerino Chunky. When I wasn't providing Cricket with new and exciting places to sleep, I took Abby on a field trip to the Happy Place - where she got to say hi to both Shanti and Wendy. As you can see, she HATES spending time at Knit Happens because she doesn't get ANY attention. Labels: Abby, Astrakan Cardigan, Cricket 0 comments || # |
