Saturday Knitting and Saturday Komeekz

The Saturday Komeek!
Isn't Lars a kick in the head?  Lol!
Is there such a thing as a military diet?  (Good Gad!  There is, and it's HERE )

The knitting report:

I will try to only update knitting on Saturday, so as not to inflict too much knitting angst on male readers who do not knit.  However, I do encourage men to knit since it is a real stress buster. It's also easier than Cross Stitch and Needlepoint.

This is the progress on the second mitt.
I am up to the pattern rows and I PROMISE you I'll not show it again until it's finished,
and both thumbs are knit on the two of them.
Yesterday, the bad doggie day.  He was wiggling in my lap at the time

Yesterday, as I was getting ready to take a snap for an impromptu photo on the arm of the Comfy chair, Wolfie came flying in from his walk and does what he always does; he leapt into my lap.  Then he twirled his body around, settling instantly down.  I got a picture of the sofa across the room.  I tried to to take another photo, (the one directly above, and he decided to leap down and pursue what he thought was a treat being broken up for him in the kitchen by Mr. Z.

The only problem with this is that the Wolf was thoroughly entangled in the thread of the ball of yarn!  He happily dragged that half way to the kitchen with him as he streaked away.  I yelled and he stopped.  I started reeling him in, and he got the message as the yarn got tighter around his body.  He came back and patiently waited for me to unravel his body from my yarn while I laughed myself sick.

We always said he was half cat! 

UPDATE:  For those who love crochet, here is a site that has amazing small projects.
HERE for the Delights-Gems Blog.  She has just given a pattern for covering plastic Easter eggs.
And, look  HERE for the tape measure cover pattern at Simply Notable.
I won't usually link back (or forward) to a blog with literally lots of ads, but I think this last one may be worth it.
