Just a quick cute update on Maya;
Maya has a mat beside the bed that I put a blanket over for her. Her mat is old and flat so I just tossed an old blanket on it... because she is spoiled. Some nights she decides to dig at her bed. I don't know if she is trying to make it comfortable or just some primordial urge to dig a nice hole for herself. Anyways, she dug her blanket off her mat and lay down. So, I decided to tease her and throw the blanket on top of her.
She didn't move. She just lay there. So I called her name. Up popped her head, still under the blanket. Dave and I proceeded to laugh and try to call her out of the blanket. She just wouldn't move. She was all snug under her blanket. So I uncovered her head and got this pic. She has that look on her face that says, "I know that you are teasing me, so just hurry up, because I'm going back to sleep..." Isn't she cute?? She just lay there, looking at me while I took pictures of her. She stayed under the blanket all night. Sigh, so cute...

Now some knitting updates;
Latoya is coming along nicely! This is the back all nice and finished... well not in this picture but it is now. I had a moment with the project while I was working on the front that was confusing. The side of the front pannel that I thought was the WS was looking a lot better than the RS. Turns out I don't know what I am doing and I was backwards. Thanks to Ravelry I was able to figure out my problem. Oh well, it didn't really make any difference. So anyways this is a picture of the WS...
And my first pair of socks are coming along... slowly. I am still enjoying it though! It is so nice and delicate to work them. While at the same time it is a simple pattern.
The only problem now is I need to turn the heel... I have a general idea of how to do it, now I just have to read the pattern and do it... I think I'll try at luch today. We'll see how that goes. I may be at KOL on tuesday begging for help (just so you are warned...)
I love how the stripes look!

Cute Puppy!!
If you need help with your heel and can't wait till tuesday let me know. I'm around this weekend. Steph is the expert on short-row heels though, I prefer the heel flap.
cute puppy indeed.
don't even worry about the heel. You'll do one and then *bang!* allofasudden you'll wake up in an alley somewhere with a dry woolly taste in your mouth, a pounding wool hangover, and no recollection of knitting the fifteen socks stuffed in your pants.
Not that I would know anything about that.
Valerie is funny :)
Stripes are always so awesome in jaywalkers!
Aw cute Maya. Maybe she thinks she's a whippet or greyhound (they love to be under blankets). Funny my sister's dog is a beagle-lab-collie-god knows what mix and she LOVES to be under the covers. She sleeps like a cat under the covers at the foot of my sisters bed.
