Backstory
- Julie
- Pennsylvania, United States
- I'm currently a stay at home mother, freelance writing on my off time, wondering how I became part of the ten thousand year old tradition of raising the kids while creating textiles. I grew up in NE Ohio dairy country, married a sailor, lived in Hawaii ten years, lived in SC for five years, then moved back to culture shock and confusion. Nothing but good times ahead.

hehehehehe, well the cat looks comfy!
I see your supervisor is working hard.
Your yarn guard is on duty. No wild fibers will be escaping now.
"But mom, they were just sitting there...."
What a pretty color Honu is.
Is this the Honu version of the Sekhmet you fucker posts? :-)
(CUUUUTE by the way!)
She has good taste...
I miss Sekhmet, but this is almost adorable enough to make up for it!
The wee one obviously has good color sense -- she knows that those skeins won't hide a single glorious guard hair that goes astray!
Oh, typical. No cat would miss the opportunity to mess with you. ("Honu" means what? I think I missed that part.)
