@kestra bestowing me with more adorable ^_^

#cats

@kestra has decided that my chair is where she wants to sleep now. And if she can't have my chair, she must have that sliver of space in front of my keyboards ;D

#cats

TFW you catch an Aron & a Skitty whilst at the pet store#pokemon

@kestra feels I should be petting her instead of playing minecraft... But Kesssssstraaaaa, it's too hot to pet youuuuuuuu (and your fur up my nose doesn't help any ;D)

And now, finally, the blocked version!

#knitting #flora

Ohhey, I Still Live. And Knit!

Liked the Six Petal Motif I made for my mom (in the colors of a poinsettia) that I made one for my sister's upcoming birthday.

Ends are woven in but still needs blocking.

That feeling when @kestra starts licking banana muffin batter off your fingers ;D

Just had a brief (and rather confused) visit at my window by what I believe was an immature male orchard oriole!

Yeah, ain't nobody talking me into moving where I sit at my computer ;)

#fauna #birds

So proud of my Eldest Son who went to Raleigh today to march in support of NC's teachers ^_^

Finished Finally! Post a couple of near disasters in which I would have to knit the thing all over again, bleh!

Anyway, Happy DNA Contributer's Day ^_^

#knitting #flora

And suddenly, it looks like a flower!

I love this stuff :D

@gannet Knit question! Wanted to double check a decrease with you & see if you had a "better" one: s2k2p.

The pattern author did not list abbreviations, so I'm guessing it's slip 2 knit 2 passomething over? Just not clear in my brain :/

Thanks in advance!

Got substantial progress on the thing for my mother.

I love how the colors change as light shifts towards towards evening >.>

Oh, got so sidetrackt doing the visually impaired text on the image that I forgot to mention the walk happened yesterday whilst waiting for B's eyes to dilate. We were there to get him a new prescription 'cause he was complaining his current glasses weren't working so well any more.

Vetch in full bloom (the purple flowers; not sure what the yellow ones are, actually!) spotted alongside the ATT heading away from Costco towards the I85 tunnel.

I don't think I'd ever seen such a resplendent display from a patch of vetch before! :D

#flora

Had to restart the thingy I'm making for my mother on the day of the year where I pretend I care about her.

This time I used Emily Ocker's cast-on and it's the clear winner for this motif/square/flower/thing.

Man, my words aren't working this morning ;D

I really did a double-take the first time and checked *both* my bird books to make sure I had identified it correctly. The second time it showed up, I decided it was the same one ;D

Drove up to Swannanoa to see Z be Puck in WWC's production of A Midsummer Night's Dream (It was perfect casting, he pretty much was just himself. Though he did say he was hoping to be able to do more tumbling than he did ;D)

I'm not the best traveler but at least I get plenty of knitting done!

Really liking how the green ombré is looking on my Sycamore Creek Shawl! ^_^
