The salad tosser strikes again

Thank you to those who've left kind words for Rocky...and those who've bought patterns. We appreciate it very much... well.. I do. Not so sure about Rocky... he certainly doesn't show his appreciation of knitters very well...

The other morning, I came down to this
... which led off the couch to this...
.. and down the floor to this...
... yeah... Thanks, Rocky.

The yarn is Drop Fabel
A nice sheepy, but hard wearing sock yarn. I ordered it from Loveknitting to get my order up over the free shipping rate. The plan was to use it for a pair of socks for Dave's Mom for Christmas. But the picture was much brighter and lighter on the website. And the colour in real life
Are much more suited to my friend, Aneesha. (Ridiculously well-suited... you have no idea!)... so I guess she's getting socks for Christmas too! (And I have to find some different yarn for Dave's Mom.)

Oh Rocky, you little pill. I guess the skein of yarn looked like a great toy for a little exercise?

Bad kitty! That is some seriously gorgeous sock yarn. Someone's going to love them!

I really like the yarn and this Rocky cat of yours. Handsome, handsome thing, but what a trouble maker!! If your friend doesn't want such a lovely sock, I'm happy to take it. It's knitting up lovely when it isn't being cat dominated. (I know you didn't say that, it's wishful thinking!)

I have a skein of wool like that too, though Star bit it and made it into two skeins.

Ezra does that to my yarn too. What's worse is Michael thinks its funny and doesn't stop her. GRRR.

Those socks are a good match for her! :)
