Last Chance to Enter the Contest...

 It is your last chance to enter the contest for the malabrigo sock yarn below.  It is so lovely I want to keep it.  You have to enter your comment on the post with the shirtless man to qualify...
The pedi socks are complete.  One looks bigger because I tried it on....
I did a modified round toe that really suits my fat foot.  If anyone is interested in MY FAT TOE instructions, just let me know. 
 I think my screen hummingbirds are cute.   Friend Sharon 
brought them to me last night.  They are sold in a pair and there is a magnet one each one so they stick together on your screen.  She said she found them at target. 

Sharon also remembered Beatles Birthday.  She brought over 3 gorgeous feathers from a friend's birds.  One blue and yellow feather is at least a foot long.  Bea and Tank smell that feather like you and I would smell a steak after a lifetime of hamburger. 
Then they chase it around and carry it all over the house.  

 Oh and Happy Supermoon!

The moon was beautiful and we get to see it tonight too!! I love the screen birds. I have bird ornaments in my garden and I love to sit at the breakfast table and watch their wings flap. I can just imagine what Macy and Max would do with a big feather!!

Screen door birds - I like that idea!

Feathers are the perfect gift for cats. Beatles will get a lot of play time with them.

I LOVE those screen hummingbirds. We took our screens to the porch off or I would be ALL over Target tonight. LOL

The feather story made me laugh. I can just imagine the kitties enjoying that feather.

Birds, yarn, and feathers for cats...what a fun post. I'm hoping the clouds will move out of the way so I can see the Super Moon again tonight. I have taken some pictures that will appear on my post Friday...

I always do the rounded toe. I broke all mine when I was 12, so they are flat. I think the socks look great! Oh....GO HAWKS,

Every Once in a While I Might Post

 Is that vague enough for you?  It has been a too busy complicated Spring.  I had no energy to blog.  All is well now, so I can share some things with you:   1. When I shoot photos of the moon I think of Dear Teresa.  Gone too soon. She took fabulous moon pictures.  2. I did not see one shooting star last night.  I only got up for a few moments around 3 a.m.  The local weather guy said he saw a few quick faint ones.   3. How can I can have one grown child in Oklahoma under flood watch, and One Child in Mexico under hurricane watch?  On the same day.  Tis true.  4. What have I knitted lately?  I am pretty sure I've ripped more than I've knit.  I ripped out a shawl that I was making up.  It was cotton and pretty.  I need to follow a pattern.  5. I was trying to make socks and decided to make mittens instead.  I haven't worked a thumb in a long time.  I may have to frog it too.  So I have been knitting, but not making things.  6. MY gardens are growing.  I have 3 main areas I

  These are the one square bunnies .  They are a free pattern on Rave1ry.  I'm bunny making to force spring to come.  I'm a1so taking it easy on my hands again.  The med we tried did keep my hands from shaking, but it was a med for a med. and that's crazy town.  I can contro1 a hook much better than need1es.  It wi11 have to suffice for now.  I'm enjoying your b1ogs and your Spring.  This time of year I so want to 1ive in a southern state.  But this Spring is a new one for me and I'm going to find a way to 1ove it.   IT may have just gotten to 50.   Degrees.  I have to run.  There's very ear1y yardwork to do.   The birds have 1eft a rotten mess of sunf1ower she11s under the feeders.  I hope it is not frozen!  Have you been switching things up in your neck of the woods?   I haven't forgotten you, b1og pa1s.  I 1ove seeing you on Instagram .

Do You Smile When You Knit???

I am pretty sure I smile when I knit.  I'm going to think about that today when I pick up the baby blanket in progress.  I am also pretty sure I cry when I knit; well, not really.  I have shed some tears over the years but they were way back.  I surely scowl when I drop a stitch.   A time lapse of knitters' faces would be interesting enough .... Tank, aka Helo, is starting to smile around here.  Just look into those aqua eyes......they make me smile all the time. He is half Siamese and all gorgeous.
