FO Friday: Instant gratification

Happy Friday everyone!

Don't you love instant gratification projects? I do! And with the weather turning colder, I've been whipping up scarves like crazy!

 
Big, Comfy, Warm Infinity Scarves! And the best part? Major stash buster! ;-) wink wink!

 
These were all arm knitted infinity scarves. If you've never tried it, please do! It's such an easy, quick and fun project!
 
 
I really loved making these. I was done in about 20min per scarf! And I love that you can wear these scarves in various ways... Yep, I'm happy :)

Our Nala

Hi you guys..

I know I've been a bit absent lately.. But our kitty cat Nala fell off our balcony, breaking her tiny pelvis/hip joint.. It's so sad.. Since she's one year old the doctors think she will recover completely by resting and that she won't need surgery (knocking on wood).

She now has to stay in a cage for 6weeks so that she won't jump or run, aggravating her bones. And she can't have any pain medication, she needs to feel when she's putting to much of a burden on her bones..

 
Poor little thing.. I try to make things as comfortable for her as possible, making her breakfast in bed every day, talking to her and petting her, and letting her sleep as much as possible..

But boy did she give her mommy and daddy a scare! How she did it and what she did exactly, we'll never know, but luckily we've all survived the first week since her accident. She's still in pain and can't walk very well, but her naughty eyes have returned, she's grooming herself and purrrrs like crazy.

So now you know why I've not been here.. Our crazy cat Nala..

Rembrandtpark Festival, Amsterdam

Hi you! Did you miss me? I'm sorry I've been AWOL for the last two weeks, but here I am again! Time can fly when you're busy, right? Let me show you what I've been up to!
 
Last week I had a craft fair in Rembrandtpark.
 
We were so lucky with the weather, as it had been postponed one week due to the rain.. Can you see the sun shining while I'm setting up?

So..

So.. after a week of not knitting and preparing for the craft fair, I got a text message yesterday that the fair was postponed to next week because of the bad weather! I'm still a bit perplexed by it, and I'm wondering how many people will show up today, not having heard about the postponement.

Anyhoo, I did put my items up on our cupboard for the time being.. Looks like a happy bunch, right?

Treasury Tuesday

Bonjour! How are you? How was your Monday? And your Tuesday?

Yesterday was a fun day for me because I had been chosen to be featured in the treasury making of SELF TAUGHT ARTISTS TEAM members! Over twenty treasuries were made! So I'm dubbing today's post Treasury Tuesday, to showcase some of the wonderful treasuries made!
