I would love to donate a gift certificate for either a skein of my Superwash Sock yarn or Woodlands Worsted (200+ yards, not superwash but great for a one skein project). The winner can pick the color from among my colorways and I’ll custom dye it for them. Is that OK with you?

IS that okay Betty? Is that OKAY? YOU ARE The BEST BETTY!

So it is official. Yarn from Moosemanor handpaints CUSTOM dyed no less, is up for raffle prize to all of you who send me a kitty acrylic knit blanket by 2/28!

The red team and the green team are tied right now .......Sara from the Red team has sent the box to you next Emily.......

Very cute cats, by the way.

You remind me of my Aunt. She's got cats galore at her house, and even though one of them pees everywhere, she just can't bear to give any away.

Hope things go well with the giveaway!

let me be very clear.


all of my cats use their little boxes religiously. they are scooped twice daily. Cats dont want dirty boxes. Just sayin......those poor cats at your aunts house. There is a limit to the number of cats one can keep. 3 is our limit for sure.

I guess I should explain about the cats.

My aunt has 3 as well. But the one who pees everywhere was adopted, I guess you could say. She was a baby when my uncle, my aunts' brother found it. It was living with lots of other cats in this abandoned house. I think it has some issues to be honest. She'll eat anything, even a peice of lint. Anything she sees on the floor, she will eat. I guess survival instincts from memories as a kitten. My aunt keeps saying she's going to give it away, but she never does.

She's too much of a cat lover.

 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 ha...

Dear buddy nurse and spay neuter pal Linda, came to visit yesterday.  We knitted. We laughed.  We shared books we are reading. She Showed me her scarf.  It looks like a shawl but it is a scarf. Here is her yarn choice. And the( OUCH) price.   It makes her happy to knit.  If Linda's happy I'm happy.  I dont' know the pattern and neither does she.  Her dog literally shredded her pattern.  She was at a point where she had memorized the easy part and she's nearly finished.  So there you go, anyone know the pattern? You are all so sweet about the move and the house. This morning I got my cuppa joe and headed to the porch to write you.  In the distance, my nearest neighbor, whom I can see through some trees.... well one of their teens came out, stretched, peed on their lawn casually, and then laid in his hammock for 5 minutes.  I'm sure he's not the first boy to do this.  I'm not even sure he's the...
