With the holiday weekend, you’d think I would be ahead, but oh no, it’s totally the opposite. One reason is because I’ve been obsessed with finishing this knit loomed cat tube. (Look for a tutorial soon). This project has taken me forever, but I finally finished it yesterday, even though I should have been writing and cleaning my house! So far, it has gotten only a little cat attention. Lola here is stalking an innocent mouse-toy that happened to wander into the tube unexpectedly.
Now that this project is off my to-do list, I’m back to getting my crafting links up and other things knocked off the list, including pulling out the vacuum cleaner!
