Some crochets…

My Fable Baby Crew

Fable babies designed by Oak & Marlow were my first focus. I brought 10 to my first ever market and sold 5. I was thrilled!

Each baby for 2 dollars extra came with one outfit piece and 1 flower bow of your choice.

25 percent of what I made at my first market will be donated to FELT VA, the rescue I foster for.

I have an Etsy page but haven’t added many of my makes to it. I find creating an Etsy listing a bit intimidating. But I have made one – my alien and ufo. Pattern by Sweet softies.

I also brought one UFO & Alien set to the market and it sold.

My current crochet work is a blanket for my new foster kitties. Blankets take much longer than the stuffies, and require a ton more yarn. However, I’m excited to make one for the kitties. It will also be a good test of running a crochet creation through the wash.

New Foster Kittens

I picked up these kittens on Saturday. They were advertised as free on facebook. I reached out to the poster and asked if they were vaccinated and fixed – he responded they were not. I asked if they “liked humans” and “could be pet”. He took awhile to reply, and he was vague in his response so I knew they weren’t super affectionate kittens. However, I wasn’t ready for what I found when I went to visit them.

It ends up he has 4 adult cats in his home, all unfixed. He also lets the females go outdoors. The 8 kittens he had in his home, were from 2 litters. Their moms were mother and daughter. They were born and have been growing up completely indoors, however he and his wife haven’t handled them. The kittens sat content on the couch or kitty condo, but were terrified of me if I approached.

Me and 2 other ladies with my rescue foster group caught all the kittens Saturday. It required flipping furniture, putting up gates, and getting scratched and bit (unless wearing thick gloves). We were there for around an hour.

These are the “spiciest” kittens I’ve ever gotten. And there are 8 of them! I have my hands full, and all scratched up already. 😅
