Saturday Sky, Mitten Update & a Kitty in a Bag Oh My!

I can barely say I know what it looks like outside as I was only out there about ten minutes max. o.0 I've been inside all day... mittening. Some blood has been spilled, but I think I'll be okay. More whiney than usual, but otherwise normal. I'm about half done. I have the hand part of the mittens done and the top of the cuff that will fit just below the elbow done. Now for the exciting middle. *insane laugh*

Wish me luck. I'm doing better than I thought I would be by this point. I have until Monday a little before 9:00 pm Pacific to get these done. I'm fairly certain I can do that. I may have to drop some of my design ideas, but I'll make it. I've already made some changes due to the fact that the leather I was knitting with was just killing my hands. I made a trip out yesterday and got a different type, less pretty, but more suitable leather for my purposes. Either way by the end of this I'm going to have a kick ass pair of Bitchin' Mittens. My honey has finally caught the spirit of my mittens and is having fun seeing how they whip up too. *snicker*

I'm learning a lot as I go along and I must say I am very pleased with myself. *L*

Oh sure I'm all cocky all full of myself now. Check me later when I hit another bump in the road and get a little crazy trying to do a last minute redesign. :P

Okay now for the Saturday Sky - Clickie to make Biggie:

Here's a couple pictures of my TKK. She's trying to make me crazy over here. I'm not sure who will win that claim though, her or the mittens... or is that a ship that sailed ages ago. *L*

We were unpacking bags from Trader Joe's and she wanted to have some kitty play time. Too cute. :D

Here's a less demonic shot. ;)

She is just the cutest kitty ever. I'm so lucky I get the opportunity to spend a bit of the world with her.

I can't wait to see what you have come up with for bitchin' mittens.

I love your cat's markings. And what you said at the end? Is exactly how I feel about my cats.

Leather?! I can't wait to see these.

Knitting with Leather? I am so not worthy. Can't wait to see how it looks.

You have sun! It seems like forever since I've seen the sun. As always thanks for the pictures.

Your "life partner" is very cute.

How you and the mittens doing now? Thanks for the reminder that I need to post mine... at some point. *L*

Love that cat.
