Kitten Update

By -
These two are BONK and SPINNER.  They opened their eyes last. They are quiet ones.  
This is Fixie: the loud girl.  Still the most vocal. 
Sprocket looks quite a bit like Fixie.  Sprocket is calm.  

Whenever one of the kittens wanders, I am inclined to carry them back to mom, and then I say ," What would Jane do?" 
(Jane Goodall of course) and I try to just watch.   The kittens always manage to get back to Lucy Lou on their own. 

I am still very hands off.  They are not 2 weeks old until Friday.  Still a fragile time, and I don't want to spook Lucy Momma. 
The kittens best shot is with their mamma for another 3 weeks minimum. 
Lucy makes it easy.  She is so sweet and attentive. 
She loves the attention I give to her.  

Oh Knitting:
I got sidetracked on the baby sweater idea.
I flipped through Last Minute Gifts that Al left at our house when she moved.  :) 
I found a bulky lace scarf and a knitted basket and decided one of those will be my next project. 

In the meantime,

Darling kitties! I don't blame you for making kitty watching your knitting entertainment. It's so much fun to watch animals interact, especially of the mother/baby level!

Is it odd that when I read baby sweater, I immediately thought baby kitty sweater? So sweet, thanks for reading and commenting.

Cuties. Love me a black kitten with a splash of white.

I am very easily distracted by new projects when I'm knitting... or thinking I might knit...

Those kittens need a new word for how incredibly cute they are.

I've knit some of those baskets from "Last Minute Gifts" --- I think you'll be pleased with the results. And they're great for holding a bar of soap and a cotton washcloth!

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...
