i have a kitty~!

actually, he's a wonderfully handsome tom. and he's so friendly and purrs so.

he makes me so happy.

even better, he hasn't shown any interest in my knitting yet. ^_^

in knitting related news, i finished my tofutsies socks. they're so wonderful to wear. and so pretty too.

and i'm one row away from finishing my grey and red striped vest. ... plus weaving in ends... yeah...

kangaroo shoes

i finished the purple triangle shawl. but i still have to block it. somehow, even though i know how amazing blocking is, i feel no desire to block it.

i also finished dave's socks. and they actually fit!


i'm working on a pair of socks for myself now. i found a wonderfully colored skein of tofutsies at the lys and had to try it. i love the colors. and it's so soft! this may be one of my favorite socks yarns. i've finished the first sock and i just started the toe decreases on the second. i was amazed by how quickly they worked up. i just love working with this yarn.

and then i put the sock for me next to the sock for dave.

... and that's why they went so fast.

i'm also working on the shawl for my mother again. i'm farther along than i remembered. i'm almost halfway done with the last tier (not including the border). i think i may be able to finish it for her birthday.

but most exciting, is my sweater. i finished the second sleeve! they're so pretty and soft and fluffy. ^_^ alas, i don't think i'll be finishing it in a month (i started two weeks ago and haven't even started the body), but i should finish it by the end of november.

and lastly, just because. this is what saw from my kitchen window one day, looking out at the neighbor's roof.
