Kickin' and Chillin'

Hey folks.  I'm kickin' and chillin' with my girl, here.  Stella Blue Lulu.  She's a little mutt my husband picked up from a farmer up the road.   When we picked out Leo, we picked the cute little bundle that pushed his way through the litter and began chewing and pulling on our shoelaces and pants.  Charming. Turns out, that's a sign of dominance, which isn't a bad thing - you just have to know what you're doing with that kind of dog.

So this time, Mr. Darling watched as all the puppies scurried under a tractor and hid.  The farmer rolled a tennis ball and all the pups came out to play except for one.  That's the one he brought home.

She was timid and shy, but we were careful about her first few days of introduction.  It paid off.  She is a bumbling, healthy, active little pup.

And since this is a knitting blog, I will include a little section here called,

What's On The Needles

 These are unintentional knee highs.  I started them toe-up and I just kept knitting and knitting.  The yarn is Knit Picks Felici in Marine Life.

 This lump is the beginning of my Coraline sweater by Ysolda Teague.  I'm using Knit Picks Swish DK in Persimmon. 

 

This is a pair of legwarmers for my little baby niece in Utah.  Knit Picks Felici Sport in Garden Gate.
