These breezy mornings are good for knitting in the tree house, while Ella plays with kittens or organizes parties with her imaginary friends. Today I was hurriedly knitting another seamless argyle, so I could help Linda Urban celebrate the publication of her book, A Crooked Kind of Perfect. The official publication date is September 1 (tomorrow!), which is also the closing date of the contest.
The rules include posting a photo of sock-clad feet (yours or someone else’s). Knitters and crocheters, this is your chance to show off your handmade socks AND to win a book and more, if not for yourself, then for some deserving kid you know.
Did I mention kittens? Ah yes. A couple of months ago, a hungry mama cat with six kittens chose to live with our family. Our four established cats were not amused. Today, at kitty-breakfast, we were joined by a seventh kitten. Huh? I don’t know where it came from.
So I am running a contest, too! Here’s how to win: all you have to do is want a kitten of your own, and live within reasonable driving distance of our home in northwest Central Texas. Okay, I’ll be waiting on pins and knitting needles for the many entries sure to come pouring in!
