Mommy-Daughter Day

I have Fridays off and mom is on vacation so we decided to do a little shopping and have a mommy-daughter day.

We stopped at Julie's (our FAVOURITE local yarn shoppe) and lookie what I got...
Crystal Palace Panda Silk! Silk (just a little), Bamboo and Merino, in gorgeous green shades that have just a hint of sparkle... what's not to love??? So I guess I better get some serious sock knitting done, eh?

I'm to the foot on the pink sock...... I should be able to finish it up this weekend. It's really too bad I can't knit at Job # 2 - then I could finish it and nutlet #2.

And if I could knit at work, I could take it in my swanky new project bag:
Mom got this for me the other day (she got one too, but it has sheep on it.)

And of course, as I was trying to fill it up, some one had to stake his claimNothing is sacred.

So true, especially to cats! I love that yarn you bought -- those colors are gorgeous. And it sounds like a perfect mother-daughter day :)

Didn't you buy it with him in mind? All cats know it's all about them!

What a cute bag! Very nice yarn - I made something with that and really liked the yarn!

That is very cool looking yarn - and I am a sucker for anything with an animal on the label. And of course you do realize that the pictures of Hello Kitty on the bag are always an indication to a cat that they should sleep on it - it is a very cute bag but really, kitty pictures should give away that it is a kitty bed :)
