S Day

January 15, 2008 By Carole

I haven’t even posted my letter A for the ABC Along but yesterday was all about the letter S.

There was snow.

And seaming a sweater.

And a Siamese cat.

I finished the sweater in spite of Mason’s “help” but you’ll have to wait for the shots of Patrick wearing it until I can get the little guy over here in the daylight.

    Love the sweater!! What is the pattern? You are one busy girl!! I wish I could crank things out as quickly as you do!!

    Snow makes for some wonderful knitting time, as I can see with your new, lovely sweater! Mr Ace has to help in the same way!

  3. Carol says

    I hope you got a day off! It always amazes me how tiny birds still carry out their daily errands even in big snows. Not surprising, is how a kitty appreciates the warmth of a good handknit 😉 A great S post.

    Pretty snowy pictures! Yay for finishing the sweater. It looks marvelous.

  5. Karen says

    January 15, 2008 at 7:55 am

    A snow day is perfect for seaming. Mason sure is enjoying the sweater.

  6. Deb says

    January 15, 2008 at 8:04 am

    Did you really get a snow day?? The woodpecker shot is amazing!

  7. Kirsten says

    January 15, 2008 at 8:04 am

    That little woodpecker on the branch is so sweet! I’m looking forward to seeing the sweater. I’m having the same issue photographing a vest I just finished. None of my models are home in the daylight these days!

  8. Dave Daniels says

    January 15, 2008 at 9:04 am

    I love your woodpecker photo. They are so cute. Looks like you’re enjoying the new camera.

  9. Hillary says

    January 15, 2008 at 9:11 am

    The yarn in the sweater looks great. Can’t wait to see it modeled. I am so jealous of your snow. I really want one good snow storm.

  10. Chris says

    January 15, 2008 at 9:20 am

    Snow day! 🙂 Hmm, maybe Mason’s trying to tell you he needs a new cat bed.

  11. Jean says

    January 15, 2008 at 9:35 am

    Looking forward to the sweater. We have a woodpecker in our backyard. Cracks me up when there’s wood shavings all over our patio from the tree above.

  12. Wool Winder says

    January 15, 2008 at 10:10 am

    I’m seeing some of that white stuff here in Utah too. The sweater looks great.

  13. Teresa C says

    January 15, 2008 at 10:14 am

    Great photos of the bird! Lovin’ that camera I’m guessing.

  14. Leah says

    January 15, 2008 at 10:30 am

    Lovely photos Carole! Did you have to wait forever for your bird shot, or do you have lot’s of birds around your house? Ours never hang around too long.

  15. Knitnana says

    January 15, 2008 at 10:36 am

    Mason rules! And where ELSE would a Siamese spend his/her time but on the best handknits in the house – especially on a SNOWDAY!!
    (((hugs)))

  16. Danielle says

    January 15, 2008 at 11:09 am

    Are you sure you’re not knitting a kitty bed? Really sure?

  17. Cookie says

    January 15, 2008 at 11:59 am

    A Siamese snuggling!

  18. Lucia says

    January 15, 2008 at 12:54 pm

    OMG, those bird pictures are great! I took some snow pix this morning, but I know I won’t be able to top yours. (Not that it’s a contest or anything, I know.)

    Cats are so helpful, aren’t they?

  19. Beth S. says

    January 15, 2008 at 1:19 pm

    I am still bitter that I didn’t get an S day yesterday. Grrrr!

    That shade of green is mouth-watering. And it really brings out Mason’s eyes–in the shot where he’s awake, anyway. 😉

  20. Beth says

    January 15, 2008 at 1:44 pm

    Beautiful pictures, Carole. I especially like the bird photos.

  21. Lynne says

    January 15, 2008 at 2:33 pm

    I so miss my garden birds…such a cute little nuthatch! Enjoy your snowy day!

  22. Mia says

    January 15, 2008 at 2:51 pm

    I have always found Siamese help very useful anytime it snows or you or you trying to finish a sweater. If the word begins with an ‘S’, they think it must be about them. 😉

  23. ~Kristie says

    January 15, 2008 at 3:10 pm

    Is Mason a seal point? My husband thinks so, so that also goes with your letter S.

    Beautiful photos! Your new camera is showing everything off beautifully. Then again, it helps that you’re a great photographer!

  24. claudia says

    January 15, 2008 at 4:06 pm

    Fun with telephoto!

  25. Kathy says

    January 15, 2008 at 4:29 pm

    I just LOVE that green! So, what’s next on the needles?

  26. Debi says

    January 15, 2008 at 6:23 pm

    Mason looks so warm and cuddly 🙂

  27. Laurie says

    January 16, 2008 at 6:47 am

    I, too, love the woodpecker. And the sweater.

  28. Manise says

    January 16, 2008 at 8:11 am

    Great S’s and love the sweater in the ” Knitigator Green” colorway :-0

    January 16, 2008 at 9:53 am

    I absolutely adore Siamese kittys, and he is absolutely beautiful!!!! Having grown up w/multiple Siamese kitties I can positivly say they are about the sweetest and smartest kitties I have known 🙂

  30. BigAlice says

    January 16, 2008 at 5:34 pm

    The sweater is lovely, but I envy your snow and the siamese cat’s nap! She looks particularly comfortable, it must be a comfy sweater.

  31. Teyani says

    January 16, 2008 at 9:25 pm

    what a great bunch of photos you have – especially loving how mason ‘helps’
    so, you’re doing the alphabet soup version 🙂
    sounds wonderful to me!
