It's the last day of the school half term break and the weather here is glorious! Toby is splashing in the paddling pool, Amy is in the shade of the tree playing on her nintendo DS, H is watching the Giro d'Italia cycling and I am happily trying out some ideas for a knitted cat motif.
Don't you just love lazy Sundays?









Sounds idyllic. :) Love the new motif.

Julie, do you have any tips on sewing up the little animals? I love knitting items but my sewing up sometimes lets me down. I love the cat pattern, very lovely.

Whatever that will be when it's finished, I LOVE it! And, yes, I do love those lazy Sunday afternoons...glad you're enjoying yours!

Love lazy Sunday afternoons, too. The sun is shining here and the sky is such a beautiful blue today. We are going to visit my MIL for her 82nd birthday today. Cute cat motif!

The kitties are darling! Lazy? Oh, I must have missed that memo...paint the pantry shelf, finish the daisy granny square pattern, plan summer term and revise class website because class starts tomorrow morning at 8:30? What happened to teachers having Monday off? As always, you are an inspiration - happy knitting. ~Kelly

Oh yes , definately love lazy Sundays -- hub went to the cricket with eldest son, I potted up sweet peas whilst youngest son napped then when he woke we went to the park and watched a swing band playing - a lovely day ..

Sundays are a wonderful day to be lazy and enjoy family. Your kitties are so playful, love their tales.

Lazy Sunday???? No chance! We've been building a trampoline for the little monsters for most of the day! Too hot for the allotment though which is a shame as there's sooooooo much to do and my courgettes desperately need planting out :o( Let's hope it gets cold again soon! ;o) Lucy xxx

Love the little kittens, don't know how you just pluck the designs out of your head. Unlike Lucy Locket Pocket I hope the sun stays around for ages!

Hello, I am interested in buying some knitting patterns but I am not sure if they are for sale. The ones I like are Annie, Dexter, Candy, Annabelle, Bella, Beatrix and Chester. Can you please contact me by e-mail? I am not sure if you sell the knitting patterns from your blog as I found it today and fell in love with your bunnies. Thanks, Susi
