We finally have sweaters!!!
Today’s Fortune: You do not have to worry about your future. That is very true. Mom takes very good care of me. And Dharma, too. I am glad I finally got a chance to blog. We were out late last night, so I didn’t get to blog yesterday, and we had some computer problems today, so I have had to wait. Waiting is not fun. We had to wait to get our sweaters, but Mom finally got them done, and they are great!! Mom used the sweater pattern for “Thomas” from The Knitted Teddy Bear. We got to choose our…

How to make a monkey….
Today’s Fortune: Now is the time to call loved ones at a distance. Share your news. This is good advice. We called my brother today. He is a grown-up, and he lives in North Carolina. His name is Aaron. He works for the Army, and he has been in a place called “Afghanistan”. He got back a couple of months ago. Afghanistan is a long way from here, and it is not a very happy place to be. There is a lot of fighting and stuff going on there. I think everyone there should get a monkey. Then they would…

Bear Necessities for Monkeys….
Today’s Fortune: Promise only when you can deliver. That is a good fortune. I should show it to my Mom, because she has promised to make me and Dharma some sweaters as soon as she finishes her Noro coat, which should be today. We hope. Since we are going to be getting good sweaters, we thought it would be a good idea to review the book that has the sweater patterns. It is called The Knitted Teddy Bear. Don’t let the title fool you, though, because there are some really good things to make for monkeys in this book. The…

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…
