Well, that was an awfully long hiatus to go on without planning it. The first couple of months can be attributed to my general laziness, but I’ve been experiencing extreme fatigue since September, which didn’t leave me with much spare time, or at least not much spare time in which I was conscious. (As a [...]

My mother recently adopted two kittens! There is a black one and a white one, and the word on the street is that they are both very rambunctious (I believe the word “evil” may have been used). Which is to be expected. We kittens are are a rambunctious lot. I have not yet met them, [...]

Once in a blue moon, I really do finish things. Or at least thing. Remember that stuffed kitty I meant to knit about a year-and-a-half ago? Yeah, I barely remembered it either. I finally sewed it and stuffed it, though, and embroidered a little kitten face on it, so that I could give it to [...]

Leia was my princess, my angel, my baby. I know exactly how sappy that sounds, but if you weren’t expecting some sappiness, what are you doing reading a blog called KnitKitten, anyway?

A while ago, I did the easy part of the knitted kitty, the knitting part, but unfortunately, sometime I’m going to have to do the more difficult part, the stuffing and sewing, because until I do that, it won’t resemble a kitty in the slightest. Well, maybe a [...]

Recently, I went to Cricket Cove looking for “soft, cat-coloured yarn” because I want to knit a kitty. (Actual knitting = garter stitch. Stuffing and seaming = bleh.) I decided on some Louisa Harding Kimono Angora for what I hope will be a calico cat kind of look. When I will find the time to [...]

Yes, I have been scarce around these parts lately. I blithely sail along for ages with all sorts of free time, and then several job interviews converge upon me at once, leaving me no free time at all. It should ease up soon, though. The best way to distract people from one’s lack of anything [...]

I hate winter in general and January in particular. I’m not depressed, just unmotivated. The idea that tomorrow it won’t be January anymore is perking me right up, although I’m not extremely fond of February, either. I’m at least motivated enough to finally post some photos I took while visiting my parents over the holidays. [...]
