Monday: No Business Even Looking at Patterns....

By -
 That's right.  I have no business looking at this Pattern.  
I have a blanket that is not at the halfway point yet.
I have A sock and a -half-  knitted, and Zach has asked for a new winter hat.  Seems his friend's dog ate one of his favorites.
His homework was apparently spared.   
I love this winter hoodie however, and it seems to be calling my name. 
Not to mention that I have 25.00 in a punch card coming from Mosaic Yarn Studio.  
I am also spending an awful lot of time completely mesmerized by the Lucy Lou Litter. 

They've all been named. 
Sprocket
Spinner
Bonk
and 
Fixie.

(Bonk is when a cyclist has to quit a hard race....he "bonked"
A Fixie is a fixed gear bike. ) 

All the kittens are over 6 ounces already on day 3 of life.  
Fixie is the biggest, the loudest, the most active. 
I think she's a girl.....

I have yet to check for their sexes.  I am not that good at it this early on.  

from left to right: Fixie, Spinner, Sprocket and Bonk.

Thanks for the baby update: they sure are cute.

The winter hoodie is interesting and would definitely keep the wind and cold at bay.

Oh, Kathy, those kitties are so cute. It's a good thing you live so far away or I be headed over..... That looks like a warm hood, just right for Midwest weather. I can see why it appeals to you!

I seriously thought there were 5 kittens. I love their names. Will you get 'sucked' by any of the little kitties? They are seriously adorable. g

Sweet babies. Good mama. Even better foster. Love the names very much!

That hoodie is cute, but I think it would annoy me. Too much like a nomex hood from the fire service. I seem to have a hard time letting my professional attire blend into the rest of my wardrobe. I didn't wear navy for almost 10 years after I no longer had to wear a uniform to work.

Thanks for posting pictures of the kitties!! Oh, man, they are sooo cute! Looks like they are doing well and growing quickly.

The hoodie looks like it would be nice and warm on an icy, snowy day...which I understand is what the midwest is experiencing at the moment. Careful about the lure of yet another project! Ha!

So cute! Also, I am not going to go into how many knitting projects I have on the needles right now. We'll leave it at "lots".

Gorgeous hoodie too.

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 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...
