I’ve managed to get on with some Norovember knitting which is super. This multi-directional scarf is a super pattern which really shows off the self-striping elements of Noro. I’m ever so pleased with it. Thanks again to Robin for sending me the pattern – I can understand how knitting these can be addictive.


I’ve also been busy with some Noro Kureyon socks. The colours are so bright I think I’d better get my sunglasses out of hibernation. I’m trying to matchy-matchy these so fingers crossed that there isn’t one of the random colour breaks that sometimes happen in Noro skeins. I could have rolled on and had a look but it is more fun this way.

I realised that there haven’t many photos of the cats on the blog lately. So in best blog-torment mode, I approached them to model the scarf.


Phoebe is the best model because she sits there and puts up with whatever I come up to her with.


Ophelia is also a nice calm model. The colour really suits her :)


Ariel isn’t as well behaved but I figured it would keep the bald patch on her neck warm.


Is it me or is that a look of complete and utter contempt on Perdita’s face?


I think Merlin may have been communicating with Chaos as he started to run away when he saw me coming towards me with the scarf.


So I had to get my able assistant to hold onto him!
