I love this pattern (not to mention Arthur cat),Spiraling Rib, on the Confetti sock yarn.. I think it would be a great pattern on tonal yarn also. The confetti made a great baby jacket from EZ’s Baby Surprise Jacket… I enjoy making that pattern.

A couple of weeks ago I received this awesome yarn for BetweenStitches Sock Club…it’s a silk blend in colors of rolling waves of green, yellow, and teal .The socks I am making are great …the pattern I wrote for this yarn is called Making Waves. The pattern is just beautiful in this color way. As soon as I am done I’ll get a pic posted…but for now I am just in sock heaven!
All of this yarn is special for the sock club . It is specially dyed for the sock club and I must tell you that I have to step outside of my element in choosing yarn and sometimes with the colors (although I have great help from the dyer)…this month’s sock is definitely a departure for me! But I LOVE IT!
The pattern really brings out the colors and I think everyone will love how the pattern and yarn meld together.

Hand Knit Felted Cat Bed (basket-ish)
This is a fun felting project, one that I did for my critters so that they felt just as special as they are. You can always find Molly in here (although not in this pic…I’ll have to take another one and post it). Arthur is always dragging this felted cat bed around the house because of the easy fringe handles I included in the design.I used needlepoint yarn for fringe, felting ( it felts great) the yarn felts with a little more texture and narley-things, try it…
And here’s a little secret (and insight to the insanity that I really live in)…there is a pocket inside of the basket for their secret kitty treasures. For their eyes only!

This is Arthur. You will see pictures of him now and then He is in his favorite place on the table.Right in the middle of the sun spot in the crystal bowl of course. I know you are saying the word healthy right now, but ……I do wash it out on occasion. This picture of him just makes me laugh, hope it makes you laugh too.
