BlackBerry, taking advantage of Caturday.

An orange tabby is curled up, sleeping on a cat bed. He is part on shadow, part in a sunbeam.

When my kids were little they would sit at the counter and paint and paint. By the end it would devolve into mixing paint and covering their arms with it. It was hard at first to not scold them, but they were experimenting and having fun. That was more important.

"Why aren't you petting me?"
#orangecats #catsofbluesky #caturday

An orange catsitting on the back of a blue chair looks annoyed at the lack of pets.

It's good for using up different partial skeins too!

So close to finishing this WIP! Working on the border of Pastille Baby Blanket by Vickie Hartog. Instead of 5 blocks of colors, I did shorter blocks and repeated them. Love how it's turning out. Just a few more rows of border left. #showmeyourknits #knitsky #WIPWednesday 🧶

A knitted blanket still on the needles alternating white, green, purple and pink yarn.

Purple this week for #showmeyourknits
I don't make much in purple, but here's a pink to purple gradient shawl I made awhile ago.

A triangular shawl with the ends folded down. It is knit in a basket weave pattern with yarn that begins as light pink and deepens to medium purple by the end.
