And now he is 4

Happy birthday, Chaos Kitty! You haven’t changed a bit!

Knitting Update
Before Marina calls me to task for the shocking lack of knitting… 😉 I finished knitting the Trekking 126 socks a week ago and now just have to settle down and sew the picot hems. Eventually!

When I finished those, I started a new pair of socks (to be another holiday present). Of course, since I took this picture, I finished the first sock and am several inches into the second sock.

Really, it’s hard to get an unobstructed shot around here some days! I’m knitting Los Monos Locos (the Crazy Monkeys), which are a no-purl toe-up variation on the popular Monkey pattern. The yarn is Wool2Dye4 supersock that I dyed. (Of course the second sock isn’t spiralling the same way the first one did.)

  1. Happy birthday big kitty! Wish for lots of tuna!!!

    I really like the fact that your socks don’t match spiraling wise, it makes them that more…personalized!

  2. “I’m a Big Kitty now!” – Chaos

    Yes, you are. And a fine, handsome one at that. Happy Birthday, Chaos. May your 9 lives be catnip-filled ones 🙂

  3. Wow! Chaos was so teeny-tiny. I missed out on that with my ladies, whom I adopted when they were 7 or 8. I like to think about how cute they must have been, though.

    Great socks.

  4. Happy Birthday Chaos! Your fans here send you cuddles and head licks! And that they hope you get tuna for dinner…:D

    Hee hee, I was on Ravelry this morning (thanks for the g/f invite, btw), and noticed how there seems to be a tail, a head or a whole kitty in almost every one of your pictures!

  5. I’m just a lurker who enjoys your blog. Wanted to tell you I had the same problem and my surgery was 8/24…I’m a whole new woman! I feel so terrific! I’ve ended up taking 5 weeks off but could have gone back after 4. Once you get past the first week or so you will be so glad you went through the whole thing! Thinking good thoughts.

  6. Happy birthday, Chaos! Suzy sends purrs.

    I love the way your sock worked! It’s just too bad that the second one isn’t cooperating the same way. Ah well. It’s one of the joys of handknits, I guess.

  7. Happy Birthday, Big Kitty!

    Did he get a saucer of tuna juice today? My mom would always give our witties something special…smashed up sardines, tuna juice…you know, the good stuff. 😉

  8. Happy Birthday Chaos! I hope you get lots of mice and treats for your birthday. (Don’t you just hate it when mom brings out the old baby pictures?)
