Weekend Project: Four Towels and a Cat

I was nursing a bad hangover when a cat stamped into the room.

I finished another set of Christmas kitchen towels this weekend! Yay! Just two more sets to go... I'm still on track with my "give them out before I am 6 months late" game plan... ;)

When I cut these 4 towels off the loom, I left the the excess yarn threaded, to make threading my next set of towels faster.




And I also measured out the 402, 4-yard lengths of the new yarns. Here's a sneak peak at the next color scheme:

Truthfully, I like brighter colors, and so sometimes it takes a bit of a push to make myself work with these dark colors. But, of course, I let my friends pick their own colors, and these are what they chose... My last set will be a series of bright, primary colors, and I am looking forward to getting to work with them!

Parting Shot: I traipsed through a dozen quotation websites looking for just the right one to accompany this picture of one of our cats, Milly. She recently had surgery and the vet decreed that she MUST wear this hood to prevent her from aggravating her incision. Milly is, not surprisingly, less than thrilled with the plan.

In case you are not skilled at reading a cat's eyes, I will translate for you. Milly is communicating this message: "I am going to kill you tonight in your sleep."

Send us good wishes that ALL of us survive her recovery! ;)
