Of dishcloths and zombies

Well, good afternoon!

Mrs Heucking

I am Mrs Heucking.

Last summer, I gave birth to a litter of Ladder (Ravelry link) dishcloths. It wasn't a long labor for a crochet hook, though I am fairly certain that none of my human acquaintances would have been happy with its protracted length.

Would you like to meet my children?

It took some doing to convince the girls that the hot tub would be fun...

O noes!
O noes!

Shove
Get in, you'll love it!

Come on...
Come on, move along, now...

You two, too
That means you two as well

All in
Once they were all in,

the lot of them enjoyed the warm, sudsy water immensely, so much so that they were all quite

Wrung out
wrung out

by the end of the day.

A minor squabble between Lydia and Kitty required me to separate the two of them but once each girl had her own "room", all was well

Shhh, it's nap time!
and quiet.

While my girls napped, I indulged in a cuppa English Breakfast.

The End

Trek is hiding the influence of her reading material... not so well, actually. ;)

And your post makes me laugh, as I am reading Mr. and Mrs. Darcy. Enjoyable, but missing in the historical research a bit.

Is that a sequel to P&P&Z???? I howled my way through that one!

And did you know that there's a book called Sense & Sensibility & Sea Monsters??? I'm on the library wait list for that one...

Bobbi said...

Ok...you're having WAY too much fun with the photography!

ROTFL So, are these books good? I've always wondered about them.

One can have too much pride. And too much prejudice. And I think we all know how I feel about too many zombies. But dishcloths? Never!!!!

Love 'em!
