Bonsai’s New Sweater

Tuesday, December 9th, 2008

It has been very, VERY cold here in Maryland lately, so… I had to buy Bonsai a sweater since he plays outside every day! And, of course, when I saw this Kelly Green one, I knew it was meant to be. I really have a thing for Kelly Green. My friends used to call it “Whitney Green” because I loved it so much, and come to think of it, I wore a sweater this exact shade of green that I’d picked up from a thrift store. Ah, I miss that sweater. What ever happened to it?

Posing for me.
Pretty sure there is a treat hiding above the camera.

Tired of pictures at this point.

Later in the evening. For some reason he crawled on top of
a plastic bin to relax while we were swapping rooms.

And, yes, he is drinking from our water glass.
He had a full water bowl, but he prefers to drink from the glasses we are drinking from.
(No, we don’t drink it after he’s claimed it) Would you look at that tongue?!

I made my first hat! I used this video tutorial from Threadbanger.com. (love them!!) I used an old white sweater I picked up from the Salvation Army for about $1 a few months ago. I left the raw edge on the outside for a little more interest. It took about two hours start to finish since I had to improvise some of the instructions due to using a sweater that was a bit too small. But I think it turned out alright for my first try… I’ve already got “orders” to make some for The Hubs and his friend.
