 This Is Sprocket...she's going to be long haired
Lucy momma and Bonk posing

Spinner, also longhaired, looks out onto the BIG WORLD as zach titled this image he captured. 



Now for knitting, and thanks for the kitten time. 
I love this aqua and cream lopi sweater. 
What is it about aqua and cream that I love?

I shall officially finish the blanket either today or tomorrow. 
It is beginning to hurt my wrist.  Its gotten heavy and long.
I can't wait to show it to you....

I had a topic for today's post and I've forgotten it since last night.
Sorry!  Just Friday rambling, I'm afraid. 

What hurts your wrist ????

I love aqua too! It's just calm and refreshing, all at the same time...

I don't know what hurts my wrists, but knitting with a yarn that doesn't give at all - cotton - hurts my hands!

Beautiful kitty pictures. Big World is wonderful!

That is a wonderful sweater and great color combo!

Cutting JB's hair with the clippers hurts my wrists, but thankfully (since I type at work, knit and sew) nothing else does. I shall go knock on wood right now!

The kitties are getting so big. Will you keep any of them? g

Kitty pictures...adorable!

I'm looking forward to seeing a picture of the completed blanket. That's a lot of knitting!! But won't it be so cozy to put over your lap on cold days!!

The combo of aqua and cream...how beautiful. I just might have to consider that combo on a new project. That design in the sweater is gorgeous!

Too much crochet or knitting, I have given myself carpal tunnel, twice from knitting which my son find hilarious.
Love the kitten time,

I love turquoise and cream so much I could decorate my whole house with it!

The kitties are getting bigger and cuter if that's possible!

I love the sweater and would love to knit one but I can't even think about knitting another sweater until I finish Classic Cardi!!!!

Knitting doesn't seem to hurt my wrists but sometimes it hurts my hands. I've been having a lot of cramping in my fingers lately. Could be all the data entry at work!!

Oooh, I can't wait to see the finished blanket.

Even though I prefer short-haired cats, Sprocket is a sweetie. Who could resist loving that sweet face?

aqua and cream, I don't have any! oh no! I cannot thank you enough for sharing those kittens growing up. It is always a smile for my day. Have a great weekend with all your happy endeavors! I fear there will not be enough knitting in my weekend :(

Adorable kittens! They are growing and changing so quickly.
Using a drop spindle too long hurts my wrist-even the teeny tiny ones. I still use them, I just limit my time.

Such sweet kitty pictures.

I noticed the other day that working on my blanket was hurting my wrist, but I think it was because we did renegade rows at the gym.

Such cute kitty photos! I love that sweater also. What is the pattern. My thumbs hurt when I've been knitting too much but not my wrists. Weird, eh?

Oooooh, that aqua and cream sweater is divine. I think we love aqua because it makes us happy just to see it. ;)

Kittens are growing! So very, very cute. Glad you will finish your blanket, maybe a lighter project will help your wrists recover! So far, knock on wood, my wrists are holding up. ;)

Have a great weekend. blessings ~ tanna
ps the things that looked like buckeyes are an old recipe of my grandmothers called Martha Washington Balls.

(just another baby legging in the image. Using my socks yarns a little differently) I think that blogger may not have correctly counted all the posts I've written. I've been posting since 2004 so I guess it is possible. I'm not going to go back and count them all. It says this is post 987. So we'll go with it. Im having a little contest for the milestone, but I have had writer's block since I decided on the 1000th post contest. So to take the pressure off, we are just going to do this now. :) I get crazy with pressure around events of all kinds. I just do. To enter: Please please please only leave a comment about this post on this post. Im much too flakey to search around differnt posts, afterall there are nearly a thousand (did I mention that number already? sorry....) Leave a comment telling me anything about Lace. If you dn't know anything about Lace, ask someone and share their knowledge. Do tell us who gave you this lace advice, to make it f...

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...
