Puppy cuteness!


We have a litter of puppies at our house right now! 3 boys and a girl(pictured above.)Born Monday the 12th.
They have to be supervised constantly to make sure Cosette (mom) doesn't roll over and possibly smother one.I get the night shift.I guess it's a great time to work on those darn Sesame sleeves!(gotta get them done sometime.)
More cuteness-

Thoughts on sleeves.

Why must sleeves be such a PAIN in the ASS?!

It seems like every sweater I attempt never gets done!
Why?
The sleeves.
They piss me off.They're long and usually require lots of increases,therefore starting out relatively harmless and end up a long,endless stockinette mostrosity.
And you have to do two.Talk about boring.

So for my Sesame cardi,I decided to do them both at once.I'm up for any mind tricks to make me think I'm only doing 'half' the work!
I suppose it's working out okay,except for the big tangly messy mass of yarn that I'm trying to work with.Those are always fun.


Who came up with the idea of sleeves anyway?I think they deserve a good kick in the shins.
