Welcome!

Well, as usual instead of taking a bite I have swallowed the whole cookie... I've been crocheting mediocre blankets for about a year now and I found a website that inspired me to learn how to do more. My "pet" cause (pun intended) is the welfare of stray animals, and my neighborhood has a lot... more than I can afford to take in, sadly. I decided to start this blog so that like-minded animal lovers can follow my progress in this area, and possibly be inspired to help as well. My mission is to make toys for the strays at the local Humane Society shelter, and possibly raise some money to help get more strays off the street, or to prevent the strays from being there in the first place by facilitating more free spay and neuter clinics. I will be posting my progress as I teach myself (with the help of Ravelry.com and Youtube) to craft more complicated projects... leading up to items useful to pet shelters, such as toys, animal beds, etc. Please stay tuned; all commentary is welcome.

Day 3

Today did not begin well. I woke up with a pounding headache and decided to crochet a pet toy while I waited for my husband to get up. Four hours later, he is still sleeping and I have a wadded ball of yarn that vaguely resembles a fish... but I was trying for a bird... I stuffed it with catnip anyway to see if my cats would at least play with it. Bart just looked at me, like, "Really, Mom? Seriously?" The rest of the day has followed suit...
