It amused me no end when I found out this morning that yesterday was No Cats Day on the internet. And what did I do yesterday? I did a blog post that was contained numerous photos of Lucy and nothing else.
No I am not a rebel. I am merely clueless.
So, some progress pix. The True Love Stole:
And the as-yet un-named sock:
Ribbing has commenced!
Thanks, by the way, for all the music suggestions you have submitted so far. Of course there are many of them that I already have, but there are also a bunch that make me think “Doh! I forgot all about that one!” I am compiling a list of must-haves so that when my iTunes gift card arrives, I’ll be ready to start a-downloading.
Today is Thursday, right? I am toddling off to NYC this weekend and won’t be back til late on Sunday, so don’t look for a blog post from me before Monday. I’ll announce the pattern winners in my music-themed giveaway then.
And have a great weekend, okay?
Lucy sez:
“Catnip party at my place this weekend. Bring your own mouse.”
That sock looks a lot like your Posie sock pattern.
Have a safe trip! Lucy don’t get too high and remember to clean up before your momma gets home.

No cats day??? Nope. Not in my book. I like the Lucy updates along with the knitting updates; keep ‘em coming!
So nice that you posted about Lucy on a “no cats” day! You’re MY kinda gal!
Claudia´s last blog .."in the pink" is not always a good thing!
Have a great trip and weekend! Onward with my Panda Silk socks, love the feel of the yarn, just bought some more today, geez, like I don’t already have enough to work up! Anyhow, have a great weekend!
A no cat day!? omg, It’s always cat day here! Lucy looks like she is already in the planning ( but I’m so cute) stage, lol.
The shawl is beautiful…… stay safe.
WHO IN THEIR RIGHT MIND WOULD MAKE A “NO CAT DAY”? Is that even American? I have never been owned by a cat, but I still want to hear all about them. No cat day, YEAH RIGHT!!!!
Oh, by the way, your shawl is beautiful. AND, I love the socks.

There will never be a catless day on the internet. Never! Purrrrrr!
Hissy Stitch´s last blog ..Did anyone ask the cats for their opinion?
I so covet the socks – the color and pattern are fabulous.

Wendy,
Have you decided how long your stole will be?

Everytime I see this sock in progress I am reminded that I need to get some of that madeleine tosh yarn. It’s just a wonderful super saturated color (and that shade is perfect for my green loving friend).

No cats day? That isn’t right. A day without a picture of Lucy is not a good day at all.
Have a good time! Love the socks and the sock color! And of course Lucy.

No cats day? That’s like No oxygen day!!
I really like your shawl and am looking forward to your pattern.
Did you know that Romi (http://rosemarygoround.blogspot.com/2009/09/sneaky-sneaky.html) has a most loverly “Designs By Tomi” shawl pin? I can just see that lovely pin on your sweet shawl!!
Tina
Forgot to add… she’s having a “sneaky sale”!!!
Song suggestion: Jethro Tull “…and the Mouse Police Never Sleeps” on the Heavy Horses Album – great cat song.
Funny about No Cats Day. I did the same thing as Debbie. I posted a picture of my cat Lucy on my Facebook page.
In my world every day is Cat Day.
