The Nice World We Live In

 

Just a happy little story from my world today:

My mom has a friend she’s known since high school.  I don’t think we’ve even seen each other since I was little, little (like under 10) but we are friends on ravelry because needlework people are a nice bunch.

When she posted a picture of a Pete the Cat she had crocheted, I asked her if I could twist her arm into making one for Abram because I have no idea how to crochet (and I need another hobby like a hole in the head) but Pete the Cat is his absolute FAVORITE.  She obliged.

And included this adorable hat for Violet.  (She spent all night last night “sassy catwalking” – her words, not mine – with it.  Why don’t they listen to our requests to stop growing up so quickly?!?!)  I need to find the pattern she used because I’m soooo making one for me.

It was such a wonderful, happy package that I had to get out my good camera and get pictures to share with her.  And then with you.

This yarny world is awesome.

    Pete the Cat is everyone’s favorite! Would love to have that guy in our elementary libraries! And that is definitely a sassy catwalking kind of cap. 🙂

Hi there, I'm Kate! I love yarn, photography, books, and a good cup of coffee. I blog like it's 2007. I write a lot about knitting, Netflix, and any other nonsense that strikes my fancy. Sometimes I get ranty. Welcome to my little corner of the internet!
