You knew it was coming. The cat just had to be photographed in something. The only reason she managed to sit for this is because she was really hungry and will tolerate a lot when she wants food.

I’ve been plotting out the gloves for Josh. Everyone at the field keeps telling him to just go a buy some from the army/navy store, but they don’t seem to get it. See, these gloves are knitted with love. And not only that, they are for me to learn from and most importantly, they are a reason to buy more yarn!

I’m thinking of using the insane amount of white acrylic that I have accumulated and use them to make Yule stockings. I know we don’t really celebrate it, but I need to do something with them. Maybe I’ll make blank ones and give them away or something. ??? I just need to thin out the acrylic. It is taking up entirely too much room!

I had an idea that Josh poo-pooed pretty quickly. I have a skein of wool left that I thought about using for the cat. You see, when she was little, she hurt her paw. We took her to the vet and he said he could do surgery, but it wouldn’t do much at the time and could make it worse later. We opted to not have the surgery done, but now that her age is showing, it seems to be hurting a little earlier in the season.

Anyhow, I thought about making the cat a shrug! I figure it wouldn’t be as difficult to get on as the sweater. I’ve managed to get a small cardigan (for a newborn) on the cat once before* and she tolerated it. I think it is better than putting on legwarmers that she could chew off. Yes, I thought about this for a while. I don’t know if I will get to it, but it is an idea. I feel so bad when I see her pull her paw up to keep the pressure off of it. The poor baby.

*I swore it was her size and no one believed me, so I showed them!
