Yarn Bombing

I'm going through some big changes (back in Arizona for the winter...and I believe I mentioned my laptop has been down, et cetera) so I'm far behind in listing new items on Etsy as well as updating the blog here.

In the meantime, here is some inspiration for today!  Oh, I hang out at the Tempe Public Library every day now, and when I'm not using the internet I can be found wandering the stacks.  I rented an interesting book called Yarn Bombing.  I've never been lucky enough to come across this type of graffiti, but I have a feeling some people in my neighborhood might, soon enough!

little baby cosmo

I made one of my new "mini-me" cat toys yesterday especially for Cosmo, who belongs to my dear friend and newlywed Amber in Chandler, Arizona.  It so happens that when Cosmo was just a tiny kitten I was roommates with Amber in a very cute three-bedroom apartment with a spacious balcony in Tempe.  We used to sit on the balcony in these folding camping chairs that had a spot for your cup, and little baby Cosmo would be just hangin out in someone's cup holder.  Now she's all growed up - but hopefully still indulges in the occasional batting of a toy.

pretty soon it won't be just
Cosmo I'm knitting for,
right Amber? ;)
