I got home after work and thought that since I had a little bit of time to spare that I’d try to learn the single crochet thermal stitch. So I sat down and made a 12 chain foundation and followed along. Knitting into the back bump, not the top loop. I got three rows in and realized I borked it. I think I have the basics down, so it was just as well to give up and frog the yarn I was using. I got pretty much down to the foundation chain and then the yarn jammed. So somewhere there is a knot that has formed and refuses to release. So I cut it free. It looks like a body with a long tail, somewhat like a little snake or mouse with a long tail. Bailey thought this was amazing and made off with it. So I apparently have created an accidental cat toy.

I briefly considered making cat toys and spritzing then with catnip, a dollar a piece? I guess a 12ch by four row thermal stitch with its leader and tail tied together would make a delightful cat toy.
