A knitting work in progress, made in green and white yarn. The cuff is green and the pattern below it is a repeating motif of cat heads.

Guess which one is which
Two cats lying in a cat hammock hung on a radiator. One cat is tuxedo coloured and looking away from the camera. The other cat is a brown tabby lying on top of the tuxedo cat.

Started Nov 8th, finished December 30th. Managed to knit this between a frantic stream of Xmas gifts and wear it to NYE with a friend ❤️

Hoping to knit more goodies for myself this year, including a matching toque from leftover sweater yarn!

a strange little scene. Elián and Ki have such a fraught relationship. As Ki puts it: "The situation remains thus: detainee and detainer, the hale and the convalescent. There is too much power imbalance for me to trust a word that comes from his mouth."

A screenshot of a piece of text that represents the concept of "gratitude". If says: smith; a scattering of textbooks covering topics such as “appreciating the nude form” and “how to unravel the truth of one’s dreams”. But most importantly, all are written in Dhat Tallaat. I run my hands over the book covers. They smell musty, and one has food stains down the side. But after so long with only my thoughts for company, these books are a treasure. “Did you close your eyes and pick these at random?” I ask. Elián chuckles. “The printing presses are a bit occupied with publishing newspapers and pamphlets these days, honey-locust. This is what’s left.” Wartime rationing hits all industries hard, even one of paper and ink. But good manners dictates that I should be grateful, despite the fact that I sit imprisoned in an enemy fort. “Thank you.” The words stick a little on their way out. “Odd that I should thank you. But—nonetheless.” He looks down. “Don’t thank me yet. I’d like to give you more than just books, but that requires delicate negotiation. Commander Tvan doesn't approve of my methods.” “Why?” I do not mean Commander Tvan, whose opinion of Elián’s soft-hearted methods are obvious from the few glimpses I have had of him. Some easterners think that we are like dogs. Commander Tvan believes that we are dogs.

Friday nights are for knitting under an electric blanket with the kitties cuddling on my lap ❤️🧶

getting out of bed this morning felt impossible (in no small part to the fact that my apartment is only 14.5 °C), but this view has done wonders for my mood 🥹
A photograph of rooftops and the sky in a Dutch town. There is a light dusting of snow on the roofs and the sun is just beginning to light them up. The sky is mostly white, cotton candy clouds with a hint of blue at the top right corner.

I would be remiss to talk about being a cat mom and not posting my cats. So! Enjoy Wren (left) and Itzel (right) ignoring me on a beautiful summer day 🫶🏻
Two cats lying on a cushion outside on a balcony. The cat on the left is a tuxedo with pale green eyes. He is lying in the shape of a shrimp. The cat on the right is a brown tabby with pale green eyes. She is loafing, facing the camera.
