Spinning

Raspberry yarn

 I am still plying my Raspberry yarn.  Since I like to put my Lazy Kate (the thing that holds the bobbins of singles) as far away from the wheel as possible when plying (this allows twist to even out over the length of singles before it's plied), plying is not really a cat appropriate activity.  I'm currently set up in the sewing room to ply so I can shut the door on it and keep Newton out, and I do have a spot for Logan in there, but it doesn't feel like the kind of thing I can start and stop when I only have a few minutes.  So the plying is taking just about forever!  I know I'll get there eventually and I'm finally to the point where I've emptied enough bobbins that I don't have to wind them off on the Niddy Noddy every time I fill one with plied yarn, so I'm seeing progress, but it feels very, very slow.

Newton and Babette


In other news, I gave Newton a new catnip toy and the catnip is SUPER strong.  After playing with it, he slept for six hours and then started dragging my Babette blanket around the house.  He brought it into the bedroom and then tossed the corners in the air and rearranged it and basically acted like a crazy man.  I realized after the second day of this that I had touched the Babette after getting out his new catnip toy.  Once the Babette was washed, he's ignored it.  Also, those color catcher sheets totally work!
