The Knaughty Knitter

Yukon!

Was that supposed to be Eureka...oops.  Yukon is here though.  This is a Plymouth super chunky yarn in lovely variegated colors.  I made this hat last night in less than two hours...with one skein of yarn.  I should have the pattern done this afternoon though.  Also in...some Fantasy Naturale in more colors and a couple of delicious new books  -  New Twists on Twined Knitting and Knits from the North Sea.

 

A week or so ago Darlene came in with some yarn she had spun using fiber I had dyed.  it's lovely, and here is a picture.

Kitty Kitty

needs a home. 

S/He has been hanging out here for a month or so and seems not to have a home anymore.  I have been feeding him, treated with Frontline but I haven't looked to see if it is a he or she, or named him/her.  S/he is a lovely kitty, very friendly and talkative and sweet.  Wants attention and to be inside. I can't take him home - my girls would be furious.  Somebody want to give this lovely cat a home?
