Christmas Chaos
Have the holidays been encroaching on your blogging? You're not alone, A Reader's Respite is right there with you. Between reading, shopping, working and all the Christmas chaos, we have hardly found time to blog.

Love it! Is there a companion book entitled "Knitting with Cat Hair"?
Damn, Susan beat me to the punch. Anyone finds that book and I'll spend a few hours brushing Tater (google Chartreaux cat and you'll know what I mean) and I'll send the fur off for the next creation.
If you'd let me know in time, I could have mailed you a ton of dog hair!
Merry Christmas!
Still looking for the cat hair version....I'd be all set in that department, lol.
Kathy - don't you DARE send me dog hair, bwa-ha-ha-ha!
I had a large poodle once whose hair would have made a lovely sweater. and a hat...gloves...a coat...socks...
I'm in the cat hair category (and maybe a little bit of guinea pig hair). Yes, I've been a little overwhelmed with it all. Helped out a bit with my sweet, adorable netbook with anytime Internet access. My vacation starts next Tuesday. That is when my duties end and my mom's begins.
I have some curly dog hair I can lend you for a nice unique look! :-)

Between a 65lb dog and 4 cats. I could have kept you supplied endlessly with hair for projects. Just my stairs alone each day would give you enough for a 1/4 scarf.
Next year is definitely going to be handmade gifts. (Hugs)Indigo
P.S. Just wanted to let you know I received my book. Sorry it took so long to get back to you. The holiday frenzy keeps everyone going. (Hugs)Indy
See what I mean? I meant to say Thank you! with the P.S. Greatly appreciated. (Hugs)Indigo
Oh this is too classic. I'm going to have to e-mail a link to this to my mom!
And I hear you ... the holidays are beginning to mess up my blogging time!!! ARGH!
A very happy christmas to you and yours this season and all the very best for the New Year
I remember seeing this one on the Awful Library Books site. It really is quite the strange book. I'm definitely not in their target audience. :)
I read a book of essays about knitting experiences shortly after I learned to knit, and one woman told a story of knitting a sweater out of her dog's fur. She got caught in a rain storm and sought shelter in a small shop, and they told her she had to leave because the smell of wet dog was overpowering. LOL

I actually know people who spin with dog hair and then knit. Yes, these people exist.
if sheep, why not dogs?
Merry Christmas, you wacky gurl!
Sounds creepy. I have a German Shepherd who sheds at least a sweaters worth every day!
Hilarious! In these tough economic times, we all do need to make sure nothing goes to waste.
