Here we are at the end of another month already. It's been a busy March, last week was especially busy and I didn't have a lot of time to sit and knit, but I did finish another pair of socks earlier in the week for Mark.
These were knitted in Drops Fable Print yarn which has been in my stash for more years than I can remember. I think I kept passing up on it because of the colour, but actually I think It knitted up just fine and the yarn was actually nicer to knit with than I anticipated.
These will go in my box of socks along with the others finished this year.
My daughter, Joanne has an addition to their family, this is Neville.
Isn't he adorable! I do have a soft spot for black cats.
Bonnie and Jacob have wanted another pet ever since they lost Pickle, (Bonnies hamster), last year.
They both love animals and I know that Bonnie would love a dachshund, or sausage dog as we call them, she's talked about having one since she was a toddler, but with Joanne working full time it just wouldn't be fair, so they agreed on a cat.
They collected him on Saturday and he seems to have settled in really well, he loves to curl up by them and have a fuss, Jacob is very taken with him, I know Neville will be very loved and spoilt.
The clocks went forward at the weekend here in the UK, I know I'm in the minority here, but I really don't like the lighter nights, I must have SAD but in a different season because I prefer the darker nights.
Oh well only another seven months to go and It'll be dark nights again 😄

I don't like daylight saving either. The clocks only change in the south eastern states in Aus, not in the west where I live fortunately. They move back to normal time around April 5.
We had a lovely warm sunny day here, very unexpected, I do love the warmer months.
It's not the sunny bright days i dislike, it's the lighter nights.
Yeah, there is probably more of us that dislike lighter nights than people think
Cute cute cute kitty. And with working cats really are easier. I LOVE when we switch to daylight savings as I love it staying light longer. Wish we could just leave it that way and not change back.
Aww Neville looks so cute.
All the best Jan
He is cute and not nervous at all
I do like the brighter days, I just find the light nights difficult, more daylight just equates to more work and less rest to me.
The socks look great. And Neville is absolutely adorable! He looks full of mischief. Xx
Nice socks. Neville is just so cute!!!
God bless.
Love your newest socks, Maggie, but that sweet black kitty is the star of this post! How adorable :) Wishing you a Happy Easter!
Neville is so cute. Yes, a kitten is easier than a puppy but then again, you are never the ‘boss’ of a cat. I agree about changing the clocks - not that lighter evenings but why do we have to change at all anymore? Have a great week. R
It's amazing how some yarn knits up totally different to how you imagine it will. It's hard to visualise how a particular colourway will look, especially as some work up differently depending on the number of stitches you're using. Awww, Neville is absolutely gorgeous. Such a cutie, I'm sure Bonnie and Jacob are thrilled with him.
