Monkey Party at the Holiday Inn….
Today’s Fortune: Stop searching. Happiness will come to you. Happiness always does come to me. When we finished up our visit to the Red Heel Monkey Shelter, we decided to go check into our hotel room. We were supposed to meet our friends Knittymac and Puggerhugger, but they called and said that they would be late, because they had car trouble, which didn’t sound like much fun at all. We went up to the hotel room, and me and Sassy and Mike Bison spent some time looking through the notebook that tells all about the hotel, while Mom unpacked all…

SassyLePoof! Arrives……
Today’s Fortune: You will make a new and lasting friendship. Once again, my fortune is right on the money! Our newest Traveling Sock Monkeys group visitor arrived last week, and we are already great friends! Her name is SassyLePoof!. I asked Mom what the funny looking thing at the end of SassyLePoof!’s name is, and she told me it is called an “exclamation point.” She says it is to show emphasis. I use them when I write my blog, but I did not know what they were called, and I sure did not know that they could be in somebody’s…

Piratey Monkey Fun……
Today’s Fortune: You will receive a gift from someone who cares about you. It’s crazy how accurate my fortunes are! I get lots of wonderful gifts from my friends, but the one I got last Saturday was extra special. Me and Mom went to Tulsa with Dad last weekend. Dad was meeting a bunch of his camera friends to take some photos in a nice park. We decided that we would spend the day with our friend Aunt Tracy. I did not know that we would spend the whole day in yarn stores, but I probably should have guessed, because…

My E-Noro-Mous Coat….
Oh, dear. Poor Noah. I’m afraid he is pouting. All we did today was knit, and he’s not a bit happy about it. He really hates it when it’s not all about him. I started the current hoodie/sweater/jacket/coat project a couple of weeks ago, and could really have had it finished in a few days, if we hadn’t been having so much monkey fun around here. As it is, I have finally managed to finish the back. About the time I cast on for this one, Noah decided he needed to have a blog and it’s been an uphill…

The Sock Monkeh Sweater….
My name is Kathy. K…A…T…H…Y. Oh, dear. That doesn’t look quite right. Noah told me this is how I should start my first blog post. I think he’s been watching Intervention. Looks like I should probably block some channels… I’m Noah’s mom. For those of you who follow his blog, you know that in addition to being the greatest sock monkey mom of all time, I occasionally knit a thing or two. Noah has agreed to share his blog with me once in a while to talk about projects. He made me promise not to bore anyone to death with…

Fortune Cookie Friday….
Last Friday morning, Mom dragged me away from the mirror, and tucked me in her tote bag. When I asked where we were going, she just said, “Field trip.” I had no idea what that was, but I liked the sound of it! I thought we might be taking a picnic basket to a nice field where we could hang out and maybe see some cows or goats or wheat or something. Instead, she took me to a place called Gourmet Yarn Co. It was okay, at first. When we got inside the store, they had a really big basket…
