Hello Kittens
Last Wednesday (April 28, 2010) was a real treat! We actually got back to our needles - thanks to Bug Kitty who brought big bags of yarn she scored at the last Kenny Bland Auction. Oh my there were yarns of every color and variety - big white trash bags full.
Miss Kitty (aka Shane Kitty) made a showing with a crochet hook. She chose a beautiful blue swirl yarn to begin creating Molly a scarf. Alas, at the end of the evening it looked like a pyramid and she had to take it out. She will begin again. It really wasn't as wide as she wanted, anyway. But at least she got her warm-up in.
Queen crocheted a 6 stitch chain - but she did get a crochet hook in her hand.
Tom Kitten was working on his beautiful ripple throw afghan.
Bug Kitty proclaimed she is only doing one more skein on her plum ripple afghan. She's tired of it! She is having trouble remembering that she promised the finished throw to Angie Kitty.
Angie Kitty tried out some vintage white nylon yarn from the stash. It knitted up into a lovely hand. Bug has about 10 skeins of that. Would make a great headband. Maybe old-time potholders would be good with that yarn.
I haven't mentioned food. Well, there was plenty of great fixins as usual.
Roast Beef with plenty of sweet carrots - thank you Bug
Lovely mashed potatoes - thank you Golden Kitten
Divine Sweet Potato Casserole/pie - thank you Queen
Apple Cobbler - thank you Tom and DO
Angel Cupcakes - thank you Princess Kitty
Cinnamon rolls - we thought the can was biscuits, so we ended up with cinnamon rolls.
What did I forget???? Help Kittens - post a comment!
Sam Kitten arrived in time to eat and make a nap on the recliner serenading us with a beat for our stitches.
The baby kittens - aka Princess Kitty, Volley Kitty, and Cougar Kitty played outside in the beautiful weather jumping on the trampoline and taking a walk in the neighborhood.
Ash Kitty slept.
Playing in the background was "Lady Jane," on the big screen.
We sure missed Woo Kitty. Please come back Woo!
Oh - other Kitty News:
Garland had her spring ballet on May 1, 2010 - she danced beautifully. See her photo leaving the Musical Arts Center!
Bug and Volley Kitties attended the great annual Vera Bradley Sale in Ft. Wayne. Volley Kitty was lucky to have a grandma Bug drive her to Ft. Wayne. See her in the photo at the big event? They made few purchases, but had a good time.
