Halfway done the cowl and kitten updates!

Hello friends,


I am so sorry for my lack of posting lately.  Once I finished the blanket I started knitting the cowl more often and I have been making a lot of progress on knitting the eyelet moss stitch cowl in a royal blue colored yarn.  It is looking nice now.

Also in other news the kittens are growing quickly and are into everything including my yarn! I have been pushing the limits trying to knit in the same room with them because before we got them I would always knit while watching TV.  As you can see from the photos below it is quite a struggle but it is definitely getting easier as they grow!

I love this guy


Roo and Moo playing with their new cat toy from Walmart. It works great actually! a rod goes in circles under the mat with a red tail and acts as a mouse for them to catch.  They weren't sure about it at first but then loved it!

Hope you enjoy your weeks! thank you for visiting and for your support :)
