seasonal goodness

Our tree is up, all sparkly, red, gold, bows, ribbons, 600 fairy-lights strong. It’s tall, not as tall as I thought 7ft was, but tall and wide. You forget that tall also means wide with Christmas trees.
I’ve decided to knit the cats a couple of blankets for Christmas. Since this decision comes a mere 10 days before the day of merriment, they will not be done on time but no matter, the cats shouldn’t mind. I’ve never knitted anything before, I almost finished a simple plain-purl (pearl?) purple scarf once but that’s the extent of it. With my current audiobook preoccupation I’ve decided that it would be nice to be able to do something with my hands while I listen to a book (this is not when I am driving, don’t worry Mum) and I came to the conclusion that cat blankies are a good, low-threat way to jump into the knitting game.
Site-relatedly, I’ve turned off comments. Why not send me a message instead if you have something to say? I still like hearing from you, I’m just trying out a little something different. That’s all. Tell me what you think, and go ahead and be honest.
