Entering The Football-Widow Season....

*

Blaine? Blaine...uh...hello?

Alas, it's Football Season. I could walk through the living room stark nekkid and do a pole dance but Blaine wouldn't even notice me. He's busy cursing our team's failed attempt at a first down.

Little Baby is unconcerned. Isn't she worried about electromagnetic fields (EMF)????

I was bored so I took the opportunity to knit. I finished some Tiger Socks. Unfortunately, they came out too small for my mother, who I was knitting them for. Which is totally negligent of me because I can usually get my socks to custom-fit the person they're for---but these came out my size for some reason. (No, I didn't do it on purpose.)

Little Baby? Hey....Little Baby? Can you hear me? I want to show you my Tiger Socks!
(Idgity cat will sleep anywhere.)

I guess I bothered her so much that she got up and went to sleep behind the philodendrom, thinking the long branch with leaves would keep me away from her...

I do love the Tiger Socks. I love them so much I'm going to cast on for another pair, only using some black yarn instead of the orange---and maybe a lace pattern....don't know yet....

Good Lord, this cat is a sleep champion!

And then, to my amazement, she automatically woke up at Tuna-Time and came to wait by her saucers....

Love the tigers! Glad they fit you...they will keep you warm until the heater is fixed! I was thinking it would be fun to knit some mosaic socks for your mom, as she is into mosaic art! Lil baby is so cozy looking, but a girl has got to eat! Ding dong tuna calling!

Have a great week Bo!

Thank you, Susan!! And I love your idea of knitting socks that look mosaiced for my mom---I had never thought of that! I'm going to start looking in my stitch pattern books right now to see if there's something there that would look mosaiced!

Love the socks! Maybe it was an unconscious thing about the socks fitting you instead of your mother? But the mosaic idea sounds great also! Around here it is my male pom that I find in all kinds of places & positions, but they usually are where he can see me from his location. I will look up at times & see him just staring at me - if he isn't sleeping belly up! My female steals the pad for the wicker bed from him though - to suck on!
