Surprise


That mess up there is what I came home to today! That is the yarn from Just Peachy, and this is just a small portion of the mess. It was strung all the way upstairs, and a small table was knocked over. These crazy cats of mine had knocked my bag out of the chair, spilled yarn and contents everywhere, and just went nuts! To make matters worse the tank is knit with two strands of yarn held together so that's two different balls all mixed up there! I was laughing way too hard to get upset.

I'm also not angry because I have already finished both the front and back of my tank. Now all I have to do is graft the shoulders together and then sew up the sides. I am dreading that part. I have some good online references for finishing, so I hope that I'll do a good job. Here is a link to an article about the Mattress Stitch from Knitty.

I don't let my cats play with yarn, and I keep it in my bag. I take the safety and health of my animals very seriously. They are my babies :)
