As you may know, Henry is a yarn snob. He only fondles fibres with 100% natural content. Therefore, I believed my cowl being knit with Nashua Ivy (50% alpaca, 45% merino, 5% synthetic) was safe. I thought wrong:
Fortunately he didn’t try to kneed or lick or roll in it… but he certainly likes it more than anything acrylic! The pattern (for the knitters out there) is the Herringbone Cowl from Hungry Knitter. [Click for my project page on Ravelry].
Hope everyone is having a nice Whiskers on Wednesday. Henry is napping obviously!

What a great picture! I thought Gretchen only loved yarns with cashmere content, but Jessi’s silk/merino laceweight has her fooled too.

LOL…5% isn’t enough “un-natural” fibre to disturb Henry. Good taste, for a cat! :-)

That is way better than what Oribel does! She tends to grab the yarn and run off with it. Or, you know, drop a finished item into the fish bowl or dog’s water dish.
