Cats and Stacks

Life is full of endings and beginnings.  Some have very definite starts and stops, while others just flow through life without much notice of when they make their entrances and exits.  Occasionally they stack up on you.  Sometimes you finish something, and you just sit back and reflect.  

Some things have ended recently, some are in an active phase of ending, and others are wobbling a bit with the uncertainty of whether they will continue with changes or perhaps finish completely.  I'm taking some moments to sit with it all and just be.     

You'll Never Guess What Comes Next

It's a real mystery, eh?  Still, it's something to do, and whether I knit the accompanying cat(s), as per the pattern, it doesn't even matter.  I have my needles going and I'm knitting silly little things.  I've made worse choices in this life, that's for sure.  They're also fun summertime knits, and the idea of floating along is appealing.  Just the idea, of course, as I'm mostly an indoor creature.  Also, when it comes to water activities, well, I'm mainly composed of rock and a propensity to develop swimmer's ear.  

Maybe I'll make it through a rainbow's sequence of float-y rings, maybe I'll go on to knit characters to go with them (cats or otherwise), or perhaps I'll move on to knitting the other styles of cats in the pattern collection.  

I am looking forward to what I hope will be the release of a dinosaur pattern this month.  I think that the previous patterns became available as PDFs in August, so I am hopeful.  

What's giving you hope these days?
